Do you ever feel disqualified from God’s goodness because of past mistakes? Well, you're not the only one! We all make mistakes in life and do things that we know we shouldn’t do. It’s easy to live in guilt and regret and not feel worthy of God’s love, favor and blessing. But the good news is, God has you covered. Discover the merciful goodness of God in this faith-building message as you explore the stories of men and women in the Bible who made mistakes but still saw God’s goodness, and not just His goodness—but His overwhelming flood of favor.

Let this message teach you how.
It’s easy to walk through life feeling limited. These limitations come in all different forms— from people and their discouraging words spoken over us, labels, genetics and family lineage, our own thoughts and insecurities, even our past and what we think we lack in potential. It can be a lot of things. But the good news is, God has already counted you worthy and put everything in you to fulfill His destiny in your life. Find out how to walk in your full, God-given potential by narrowing your focus, letting go of lies and competition, and immersing yourself in God’s Word and His identity so you can flourish into all God has created you to be! Learn how to break the forces that would try to keep you hidden so you can shine bright and make a difference in this world!
We need the help of others in order to fulfill our destiny, and guess what? Someone needs our help today, too! Every one of us should be invisible in somebody’s life—being behind the scenes, helping others grow, encouraging and pushing them forward, and calling out their seeds of greatness. Without Jonathan, David wouldn’t have been the great king. The prophet Elijah performed many great miracles, but behind the scenes, there was Elisha faithfully caring for his every need. Sometimes we are needed in other people’s lives to help them, to be their arms and feet, to lift up their faith when they can’t go on, and help them walk into greatness. Learn how to live each day helping others. As you make other people shine, God will make sure the right people will be there for you to help you shine and rise higher.
Now more than ever, it’s time to release your faith, expect God to move, and speak His blessings over your life. Why? Right now, there are blessings that have your name on them. There is promotion, healing, vindication, restored relationships and so much more. God has already destined them to be yours. But if you never believe and release your faith, these blessings can lie dormant. Let this faith-building message teach you how to receive all that God has for you as you increase your faith to a new level and believe like never before.

Did you know that right now you are heavy with favor? Let Joel show you in this exciting message how much God loves you and teach you about His amazing, abundant favor that's on your life—right now. You will learn that favor is a free gift you cannot earn and how to activate this favor through prayer and expectancy. Learn how to pray bold prayers and gain a greater vision of His love for you and who you are in God. Isaiah 60:1 says, "Arise and shine, for the glory of the Lord is upon you." As you learn how to rise up in your faith and pray prayers filled with expectancy, you will see God show up in your life in remarkable ways!
God wants to do a new thing in your life. He wants to bring you into a new level of your destiny. But, are you letting excuses hold you back? It’s easy to come up with excuses, especially when unfair things happen to us or when we’ve been hurt by circumstances or people. Yet, Joel wants to show you in this eye-opening message how to let go of excuses so you can experience the new things God wants to do in your life. Isaiah 42:9-10 says, “The former things have come to pass, and new things I now declare. Sing to the Lord a new song.” Let this message guide you every step of the way to show you how to let go of the old and sing a new song so you can move forward into your bright future! It’s time to step into the new, now!
There will always be things in life that we don’t understand or don’t make sense. It may even be an unanswered prayer or situation in your life that you’ve earnestly sought God to change for years. When this happens, it’s very easy to focus on what’s not changing, which can rob us of our joy and faith. But, there is a higher way to live. Let Joel encourage you to see your secret frustrations a bit differently with a fresh godly perspective. Second Corinthians 12:9 says, “My grace is sufficient for you. My power works best in weakness.” You have the grace for anything you’re facing. Let this message teach you how to trust God and His timing so you can stay filled with His peace, joy and strength no matter what. And as you stay in faith and pass the test of trusting God, you’re being prepared for your future!
God wants to take you where you’ve never been and show you favor that you’ve never seen! We weren’t created to live a small life with little goals, dreams and influence. God created us to live an abundant life. No matter where you are, you’re not supposed to get stuck at that level and stay there. God is a God of increase. He has something bigger in your future. Have you let how you were raised or your current environment keep you from believing for anything greater? It’s time to adopt a new mentality! Jesus said in Matthew 9:17, “No one puts new wine into old wineskins.” Let this faith-building message teach you to let go of limited thinking (the old wineskin) and inspire you to believe bigger, expect bigger, and discover the seeds of greatness and untapped potential inside of you!
Who you spend your time with will have a great impact on what kind of life you live. In this edifying message, Joel shares what the Bible has to say about who you allow into your inner circle. Proverbs 13:20 says, "He who walks with wise men will become wise." Make sure you're hanging around the right people, the type that will inspire you to come up higher and be all that God has created you to be! Learn how to make the necessary boundaries and changes necessary so that you can thrive in life.
Did you know that your words are like seeds? In fact, you are where you are today because of what you've been saying about yourself. That's why Joel created this powerful, eye-opening message to help you take a closer look at the words you are saying. Proverbs 18:21 says, "The tongue can bring death or life." Learn how to reprogram your words with the life-giving power of God's Word and speak your God-given authority to change your situation and ultimately, your life! As you let go of the voices of defeat and fear and pick up the voice of victory, your life will never be the same! You can bless your future with your words.
God created us to grow, expand and flourish into greatness. But sometimes, this isn't always the easiest or most exciting thing, especially when we face hardships, disappointments and loss. In this encouraging message, Joel wants to help you take another look at your life and see the places where God is trying to grow you and take you to a new level. Let this message fuel your faith and inspire you to keep pressing forward. Remember, God has you right where you should be. As you trust Him and are willing to go through the process, He will take you to a place of abundance, promotion and victory!
We all go through difficult times in life and things we don't understand. When we're in a valley, it's easy to get discouraged and think that it's never going to change. But Joel wants to remind you of God's promise of His blessing. David proclaimed in Psalm 23:5, "You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies." Right in the middle of trouble, God will prepare a table of abundance for you! Let this message build your faith to trust every single season God has in your life. Nothing is a surprise to Him. You can relax, enjoy your life and trust God's delivering power and His blessing for you while in the valley.
Have you ever asked yourself, "When am I going to see the sunshine again?" Maybe you've experienced loneliness, hurt, lack, or a health struggle that is holding you back that seems to follow you around like a heavy cloud. Well, get ready. Let this faith building message remind you of the faithful promise that God has unexpected sunshine for your life! Psalm 30:5 promises us, "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning." His rays of restoration, hope, healing and abundance are closer than you think! It's time to have faith again!
Are you carrying around guilt, shame or heaviness? This is your day to be free. Shame is one of the enemy's favorite tools. He's called the accuser of the brethren. He'll remind you of every mistake, every failure, even things that weren't your fault. He'll try to deceive you into thinking you're to blame. But if we're going to live in victory, we have to learn to silence that voice of shame and tune in to God's abundant voice of victory! Let this motivating message inspire you to transform your heart with the powerful Word of God. God has removed your shame! You may have had some bad breaks, but those setbacks were really setups for God to bring you out with double.
Like any good movie, our lives are filled with twists and turns. There are seasons and situations that happen where it looks like nothing is going to work out. But, did you know God has already planned your final scene to end in victory? When you understand your end has been established, you won’t go through life discouraged because of a disappointment or bitter because of a loss. Let this inspirational message give you the biblical tools to face life with courage, hope and great faith, knowing that God can even use what seems to be a setback in our lives as a grand setup, an unexpected end. You may have had a rough start, but you’re not going to have a rough finish! And best of all, God promises in Philippians 1:6 that He will bring you to a flourishing finish!
Being a person of faith doesn’t exempt you from difficulties. Matthew 5:45 says, "Rain falls on the just and the unjust." No matter how good a person you are, no matter how much you honor God, there’s going to be some rain in your life. But the good news is that God's strength will equip you every step of the way, and you’re not alone! Let Joel remind you in this powerful message of God’s never-ending strength that’s always available to you. Psalm 18:39 says, "You have armed me with strength for the battle." So don’t be afraid of storms and trials. Be inspired and reminded that you’re coming up higher; you’re reaching a new level! The storms may come, the winds may blow, but with God by your side, you will stand and thrive!
One of the biggest challenges we all face in life is getting along with people. After all, we have different personalities and temperaments, and we come from different backgrounds. But if we are to live a life of peace, victory and full of God’s anointing, we have to learn to keep strife out of our home and relationships. Mark 3:25 tells us, “A home filled with strife and division destroys itself.” Let this message teach you how to make and maintain peace. When you go to the extra effort to keep the atmosphere in your home loving, kind and peaceful, you’re going to not only have God’s anointing and blessing, but you’ll have His protection, and He’ll keep you from unnecessary trouble.
