NotThe Distance We Have Run!

Not the distance we have run, but the obstacles we have overcome.

“Show me a man who has not succeeded at first, and then has persisted and gone on, and I will back that man to do better than those who succeeded the first time." Success is not measured by what a man accomplishes, but by the opposition he has encountered, and the courage with which he has maintained the struggle against overwhelming odds.

" Opposing circumstances create strength. Opposition gives us greater power of resistance. To overcome one barrier gives us greater ability to overcome the next. ( Edited)  Orison Swett Marden,

Puy Off The Old Man!

Eph 4:22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, put off the former way of thinking and doing. The old man and his limited living, limited thinking and limited believing. He’s been blinded by the devil. The old man doesn’t understand spiritual principles. Neither can he know them they are spiritually discerned. Once we crucify the flesh and it’s appetites then we shall be more than conquerors and over-comers, we need a new way of thinking. There is nothing to hard for God. God asked Abraham in Genesis 18:14 Is any thing too hard for the LORD? Be renewed in the spirit of your mind; the old man is corrupt. He is out of harmony with God.
