Welcome to the Victory Blog

This past weekend, we had the pleasure of welcoming Pastor Jeff Hidden from Victory North in Kennesaw to speak in our services. His message was dynamic, encouraging and empowering, and challenged us all to make a switch in the way we think about money from the world’s way of thinking to Kingdom Thinking. If you were there, you know what I’m talking about when I say that he took us through a major paradigm shift from anxiety to hope. If you missed it (or even if you didn’t), and you want to be encouraged and learn how to experience God’s provision, you should listen to or watch this message online today! For now, here are a few of the key things Jeff said to whet your appetite:

Read Matthew 6:31-33

There’s a world’s way of thinking about things – it’s all about going after more things, more money. God says, instead, to think about going after his kingdom first and his righteousness – then all you need will be given taken care of.

We don’t seek God in order to get the things. Rather, we seek his way of doing things, which means we will renew our minds, and begin making new decisions based on God’s kingdom. If we want to live long and prosper in kingdom success, we have to think and operate within the kingdom way of doing things. To the degree we have kingdom thinking we will have God’s kind of Kingdom success. We’ve got to start thinking different.

God wants to give us wisdom in order for us to walk in His provision and success.

If God provides wisdom and the power to obtain wealth and have good success, why do we pray for the money, or the job, or other things?

God provides for us as we grow in the wisdom and power he gives us.

We should be praying for wisdom, not the treasure.

God is not going to cancel our debts; he’s going to give us the wisdom and ability to cancel our own debt. We get into debt by not acting wisely…we get out of debt by acting wisely.

The key to living in God’s provision is listening to Jesus and following His wisdom.
