Top 10 Steven Furtick Quotes
If you want to change the direction of your life, change the declaration of your lips
Don't be ashamed to celebrate victories that may seem small to others. Only you and God know what they really cost.
Love is not words, it's actions, and love isn't feelings, it's a decision.
The voice you believe will determine the future you experience
Great moves of God are usually preceded by simple acts of obedience.
The reason why we struggle with insecurity is because we compare our behind the scenes with everyone else's highlight reel.
I have nothing to prove, because I am already approved.
Gratitude begins where my sense of entitlement ends.
Stop waiting for what you want, and start working what you've got. Your greatest limitation is God's greatest opportunity.
Today's excuses are tomorrow's regrets dressed in disguise.
