Joel Osteen

And I know that I've passed midnight.

That means my healing is coming.

My breakthrough is coming.

My abundance is coming.

My victory is coming.

When you realize God starts with darkness to bring about new things in our life, then you won't get discouraged by the darkness.

You'll thank him in the middle of the darkness.

You'll praise him despite what's trying to stop you.

This is what Paul and Silas did.

They were put in prison for sharing their faith.

The religious leaders, the Sadducees, they didn't like them.

They accused them of causing a disturbance.

They were in the deepest part of the dungeon to make sure they couldn't escape.

But God won't let you get in a problem that he can't bring you out of.

If that difficulty was going to stop your destiny, God wouldn't have allowed it.

It may seem too big for you.

You could never overcome it, but it's not too big for our God.

He already has the solution.

That trouble can't keep you from your purpose.

That setback in your finances, the anxiety, the depression is not permanent.
