But even when you're in a valley, whether it's your choosing or outside of your choosing,

when you are in a valley, don't name yourself by something in the valley because that's just a

passage way to get you to the next level God is taking you to in your life.

God's people should never linger in the valley. We don't move in, we move through.

Hello and welcome for stopping by for today's Destin for Victory, where we feature the preaching ministry of Pastor Paul Shepard.

Well, sometimes we choose to wallow in

our misery a little too long. Instead of moving on, we move in. We unpack our bags, get settled,

and stay a while. Today, you'll be reminded that if you handle life's challenges the way God wants you to,

they are merely a temporary stop on your way to your destiny in Christ.

So stay with us now or come see us at pastor paul.net to listen to Destin for Victory on demand.

That's pastor paul.net.

Now let's pay close attention to this important Destin for Victory message,

getting bitter or getting better.

You are called and your calling is what dictates who you are.

What you're going through is just that.

What you're going through.

You might be in a valley, but don't name yourself valley because you're not staying in the valley.

When God lets you go through a valley, and frankly, we go through a lot of valleys because we're the ones that headed down there but even when you're in a valley whether it's

your choosing or outside of your choosing when you are in a valley don't name yourself by something

in the valley because that's just a passage way to get you to the next level

God is taking you to in your life.
