YOU CAN'T QUIT NOW!

Imagine yourself walking down the street. Now imagine after walking for some time, you decided to stop walking. Where would you be at? Right where you stopped right? That’s what it’s like spiritually when you decide to quit. To quit is to make a decision to stay in the same position. To quit is to say “Yes” to where you’re at. The worst place that you want to quit or stop at is where you're facing the most challenges. Why stop in the very place that you don't want to be. You’re going after your dream. You’re fulfilling your God-Given vision. You’re striving to win. Don’t think that the devil is going to let you by easy. Don’t think that he’s going to give you a free pass just because you decided to be somebody. Storms will come. Challenges will come. Troubles will come. Jesus said in the Bible,
“I have told you all this so that you may have peace in Me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”
John 16:33 NLT

Just because trouble comes doesn’t mean that it has to trouble you. Just because the storm comes doesn’t mean that it has to tear up your house (Luke 6:47-49). Use your ‘situation’ to make you ‘stronger’. Turn what’s meant to ‘break you’ into a ‘breakthrough’. But you can’t do this if you give up. You can’t quit now, because wherever you ‘stop’ at is where you ‘stay’ at.
“Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don’t quit.” ~ Conrad Hilton

You must keep moving. You must press forward. You must keep winning…
so keep winning.

  1. Listen Billie Miller :-) lol....that was soooo good! I love this perspective, "To quit is to make a decision to stay in the same position. To quit is to say “Yes” to where you’re at. The worst place that you want to quit or stop at is where you're facing the most challenges. Why stop in the very place that you don't want to be." You got me fired up! I'm posting this on my page. I never looked at it from that point of view -- thank you.

    For me, quitting is not even an option because my Jesus did not quit on me, I can't quit on Him.

    God bless all you do!

    Much love,
