Joel Osteen Daily Devotional 1 May 2024 – Eagles’ Wings

Exodus 19:4, VOICE – “You saw how I snatched you from the bonds of slavery and carried you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself.”

You may have some things that are oppressing you today, some things that are unfair, some things you don’t understand, but stay encouraged. Eagles’ wings are coming, which means you are going to soar higher than you ever imagined. The God who made you is going to carry you out of the depression, out of the heartache, out of the loneliness, out of poverty, lack, and not having enough. That is not how your story ends. You’re not going to just make it through the loss, through the breakup, or through the trouble. No, He’s about to carry you into abundance, carry you into freedom, carry you into joy, peace, favor, breakthroughs. It may look as though you are stuck, but you’re about to feel some eagles’ wings lifting you, restoring you, pushing back the darkness, opening doors, and promoting you, taking you where you can’t go on your own. He may not turn it around instantly, but rest in faith knowing that He’s going to carry you through. You’re coming out better than you were before.

“Father, thank You that You never leave me on my own in life’s battles. Thank You that You carry me on eagles’ wings and lift me to be with You. Thank You that You carry me over, out of, and through what tries to hold me back. I believe that You are taking me higher than I have ever imagined. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
