Tulsa, OK – On Nov. 20 after preaching the Sunday morning sermon, Billy Joe Daugherty began praying for members and visitors who lined the front of the auditorium. As he neared the center of the line a complete stranger slammed his fist into Daugherty’s face, drawing blood and knocking him into others standing in line for prayer. As Daugherty attempted to regain his balance the man struck a second blow before being restrained.

The story captured national media attention airing on "MSNBC", "Good Morning America", "The Today Show" and more as intrigue mounted over the pastor who could take two punches to the face and then walk back to the podium to offer prayer and forgiveness for his attacker.

Have you ever felt or been attacked? If you make a decision to forgive, forget, and release your assailants and offenders, the blessings of God cannot be stopped from coming upon your life. The very things that are scars will be turned into stars! The very things that hurt you can become the key to your promotion or the platform from which you go to the next level of success.

It's not the things that happen to you or how fast the wind comes against you that count towards success. It's your response that counts. Sound difficult? Find the secret that will set you free from a being a victim to becoming an over comer in every area of your life.
