TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
If God made everything happen right away, or whenever we wanted it to
happen, it wouldn’t require anything of us. We would miss the
opportunity to grow because we grow in the difficult times. We grow when
our faith is being stretched, when we have to believe when we don’t see
any reason to believe, when we stay in faith when our mind is telling
us we’re wasting our time, when we give
God praise but we really feel like complaining. That’s passing the test.
When you do that every day, your faith is not only increasing, your
character is not only being developed, but you are one day closer to
seeing the promise come to pass.
Today, don’t give up on a
promise just because you’ve been waiting a long time. Dig your heels in.
Put on a new attitude. God is saying, “Every promise I’ve spoken over
you, every dream I’ve placed in your spirit, even the secret petitions
of your heart, the dreams you haven’t told anyone about, I still have
every intention of bringing them to pass.” Stay close to Him. Obey His
Word and move forward in the blessing and victory He has prepared for
you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father, today I bless and
praise You for Your faithfulness. I choose to trust even when things
aren’t happening on my timetable. Thank You for working in me as I stand
in faith to see every promise fulfilled in my life in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen
