TODAY’S WORD BY JOEL OSTEEN.
God has created you to be a victor, not a victim. Jump-start your day by celebrating the very best that God has for you!These daily inspirations will help you grow in your relationship with the Lord and equip you to be everything God intends you to be. – Joel Osteen
I wonder how many times we’re trying to prove something and the person is not even paying attention: trying to impress people that don’t care, competing with someone that doesn’t even know we’re competing. It’s good to have goals, it’s good to have people that challenge us and inspire us to go further, but we’re not going to be blessed if our motives are not pure.
When we’re trying to prove to people to feed our ego, to pay them back, to show them how great we are, to make up for our lack of self-worth, that’s a dead-end street. Let God fight your battles. Let Him promote you. Let Him vindicate you. His favor is not so we can prove that we’re talented, prove that we’re as good as someone else. It’s to fulfill our assignment. It’s to advance the kingdom.
