A Defining Moment

“When a defining moment comes along, you can do one of two things. Define the moment, or let the moment define you.” Author unknown

There are defining moments in our life. These are opportunities disguised as trials, obstacles, road blocks, sickness or adversity. These moments can cause us to cower in defeat or they can propel us to great victory.

We must refuse to allow, our circumstance, our weakness, our limitation or even our past, to define us.

The seed that grows in a perfect environment does not have the hardiness to endure the scorching sun, the turbulent winds, or the devastating drought. However, a seed that pushes its way through the rocky soil, withstands the winds of adversity, and thrives in spite of the elements, will survive and will stand strong for years to come.

Our response to adversity will define us.


Let us take out our pen of faith and begin to write on the tablets of history. Let us define ourselves as faithful; strong; committed; compassionate; determined. We are more than conquerors. We are over comers.

We refuse to allow our circumstance to hold us back from fulfilling our destiny.

God has called. God has empowered.

We will reap the harvest of souls. We will turn our city upside down. We will have revival. We will have a great victory.

We have an “Audacious destiny!” (D. G. Hargrove)

Today is a defining moment for the church...let us write a story of victory!
