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
In the Scripture, Job honored God and lived a life of excellence, yet he saw the bottom fall out. He lost his business, his children, and his health. Most of the time all we think about is Job’s suffering, which was extreme, painful, and unfair, but many commentators say it lasted less than a year.
Job stayed in faith, kept declaring God’s favor, made it through the suffering, and went on to live a long, blessed life with his health restored, children and grandchildren, and double his wealth.
When you find yourself in the middle of the difficulty, do as Job did and declare God’s favor. In sickness, talk about health. In lack, talk about abundance. In bad breaks, talk about favor.
In weakness, talk about strength. If you have a victorious mouth, you will have an abundant, victorious life. Dare to declare, “I am blessed. I am healthy. I am more than a conqueror.” You are prophesying your future. Make sure what you’re saying is what you want.
