TODAY’S WORD JOEL OSTEEN 29TH JANUARY 2021

The Psalmist said, “God will work out His plan for your life.” You don’t have to work it out. You don’t have to struggle and live worried trying to fix every problem, straighten out every enemy, and make things happen in your own strength. You can live from a place of peace, a place of rest knowing that God is not only fighting your battles, but He’s lined up the breaks you need, He has the right people that are going to help you.

He has solutions to problems that you can’t see right now. He’s already figured out how to solve it. Don’t waste your time worrying; He’s on the throne. He’s promised to work out His plan for your life. His plan is better than your plan.

Your thoughts set the limits for your life.
When my father went to be with the Lord and I stepped up to pastor the church, every thought told me that I couldn’t do it. I wasn’t qualified. I didn’t have the training. I was too quiet. If I had believed that report, I would have missed my destiny. That’s why the Scripture says, “Be careful what you think.” It gives us a warning. Your thoughts set the limits for your life. All that came to my mind were negative, fearful, intimidating thoughts.

BILLY GRAHAM DEVOTIONAL FOR 29TH JANUARY 2021 –SHARE WHAT HE HAS DONE

I had to do what I’m asking you to do. I didn’t just keep thinking those thoughts because they showed up. I didn’t dwell on them and believe they were the truth. I tuned them out and got in tune with God. On purpose I thought, “I can do all things through Christ. I am strong in the Lord. I’ve been raised up for such a time as this. Father, thank You that I’m equipped, empowered, and anointed.”

Thoughts told me, “Nobody’s going to listen to you, Joel. You don’t have anything to say.” Instead of believing those lies, I would say, “Father, thank You that Your favor is causing me to stand out. Thank You that people are going to like me and be drawn to me. When they see me on the television or radio or Internet, they can’t turn me off.” If I had not gotten in tune with God and thought these power thoughts, I wouldn’t be where I am today.
Start thinking your own power thoughts and do it today.
