1 " Audacious faith is not passive. Neither is audacious prayer. Every aspiration you have in prayer needs an accompanying action. Otherwise you're not really praying. You're just pontificating.You do the natural. Trust God for the super. "
― Steven Furtick , Sun Stand Still: What Happens When You Dare to Ask God for the Impossible
2 " I’m not raising my kids to survive the world. I’m raising them to change it. "
3 " God gives the exact experiences he wants them to have in order to shape the specific destiny he designed for them. "
4 " If we have the audacity to ask, God has the ability to perform. "
5 " If you're going to ask God to do something impossible in your life, you've got to have some clarity about what you're asking for. "
6 " The goal of faith isn't to take away your fears but to leverage those fears to create bolder belief. Faith leads you past your fears and reassures you of God's presence. And after a while, you begin to trust that God is going to lift you above the waves this time just like he did last time. "
7 " When you have a dream in your heart, but no earthly idea how to make it happen, keeping your faith intact is a full-time job. "
8 " Audacious vision never cowers in the darkness. "
9 " Confidence without humility is arrogance. Humility without confidence is weakness. Confidence and humility are both biblical. And they're equally essential for living a life of true faith. "
10 " The people who accomplish the most astounding things for God's glory aren't the people who feel the least fear. Often they're the ones who deal with the most intense fear. But instead of letting that fear disable their dreams, they start increasing their capacity for faith. They act on the part of God's direction they do understand. And they leave the rest up to him. "
11 " Could it be that God intends for us to have the same kind of audacious faith-the kind of faith that dares to believe God for the impossible-as a normal way of life? "
12 " I'm determined to take ground and win big for the kingdom of God. I'm unapologetic about my mission to change the world for the glory of Jesus. I want to be a Joshua in my generation. "
13 " God performs the most impressive feats through the most unimpressive people. "
14 " If you'll do the believing, he'll do the achieving. "
15 " I choose to believe that the same God who intervened to bring his Son back to life intervened on this day in history to help his people. "
16 " I want you to live in the middle of a move of God. "
17 " God gives people the exact experiences he wants them to have in order to shape the specific destiny he's designed for them. "
18 " Seize God's vision. Activate your faith. Make your move. "
19 " Seizing God's vision means deciding that you will not spend another day surviving your work environment, family dynamic, or dysfunctional situation. "
20 " You have a personal birthright to believe in a God-given mission for your life. "
