Victory Is Coming | Jentezen Franklin

I want to challenge you today: Have you seen any progress in the situations you’re facing? Don’t wait until everything is finished and perfect—start praising God now! Don’t let a “Saul spirit” hold you back. A Saul spirit says, “I’ll only celebrate when all my problems are gone.” But we need a Jonathan spirit—one that rejoices in the little victories along the way.

Clap your hands and thank God for the small wins—the unexpected phone call, the open door, the new opportunity. If you can praise Him in the small things, He’ll bring the bigger ones! Hallelujah!

I remember when this ministry was small—I praised God then, just as I do now. And today, by His grace, we’re reaching people worldwide. But it all started with a little step of faith, just a taste of honey.

Some of you are waiting for everything to be perfect before you rejoice. That’s a Saul mindset. But a Jonathan mindset says, “I don’t need everything to be perfect. I see God moving in the little things, and little is much when God is in it.”

God’s work doesn’t start with something huge—it starts with a seed. When you pray for an orchard, God gives you a seed and expects you to cultivate it. Even in creation, God set an example: He didn’t form the world in an instant. He took it step by step—separating light from darkness on day one, then pausing to celebrate. He didn’t wait until everything was complete to say “This is good.”

If God Himself took time to rejoice in every step of progress, shouldn’t we do the same?

So today, praise Him for what He’s already done. Don’t let waiting for the “big moment” rob you of the joy of now. Even the smallest breakthrough—a phone call, an email, a sign—can be the start of something great. Recognize it, celebrate it, and trust that God is just getting started!
