Positioning Beyond Defeat

Wow what an Awesome Service. If you missed it, you can go and view it. Click here. Don’t forget about November 6, 2009. We will have our faith base night held at the Cedar Park Center. Click here for more information.


Ephesians 4:8,9 (King James Version)
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9
Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;

When one experiences defeat, failure, let down, or an unexpected detour on the path to success, it can appear that our dreams have been shattered. It can feel as though we are pressed on every side and at every point. You know the saying, when it rains, it pours. Some blows in life seem so hard, so deep that we don’t know how we can ever get back up and shake things off.

I want you to know as you read this blog, no matter what office you are sitting in, what computer you are in front of that God will make what is crooked, straight. What seems to be bent up and twisted, he can iron out. No matter how complex the situation, with God on your side, all things are possible.

If you are still here, breathing, alive, then it’s not over. You can be cast down, but God wants you to know that this situation you are going through, will not destroy you. He will use this in the melting pot of life situations and make you stronger, better, and wiser.

It is never too late to begin again, dream again and live again. You must position yourself beyond defeat. When you have experienced failure, you feel down and worse then ever imaginable. Reposition yourself. Yes, that’s right, reposition yourself; don’t stay down and defeated. Go laugh at something, when you don’t feel like laughing. Go see something bright and happy. Get going and begin to let God speak to you and do a work in you. What you think is a “set back” could really be a “set up” for what God has for your life; the destiny to be fulfilled.

God bless,


Pastor Mark
