JOEL OSTEEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL 13 JULY 2024 MESSAGE
Joel Osteen Daily Devotional 13 July 2024 – Today’s Word with Joel & Victoria Osteen. Read Saturday Daily Devotional Message by Joel Osteen.
TOPIC: The Story You Believe
Today’s Scripture
“Please, I don’t talk well. I’ve never been good with words, neither before nor after you spoke to me. I stutter and stammer.” – Exodus 4:10, MSG
Today’s Word
When God told Moses to tell Pharaoh to let the Israelite slaves go free, Moses made the excuse that he couldn’t do it because he stuttered. God said, “Moses, who made your mouth?” Do you think God would ask you to do something and then not give you the ability to do it? Do you think He would not give you everything you need to live a victorious life, to overcome obstacles, to excel and leave your mark?
Moses had the wrong story. He was telling himself, “I’m unqualified. I have these limitations.” The story you believe is the story that’s going to come to pass. When you tell God you’re not talented and can’t do something significant, God responds, “Who made you? Who wrote your story? Who gave you your gifts? Who picked out your family? Who lined up your good breaks? Who planned out your days?”
The Creator of the universe is your author. He’s written your story. You’re not doing life on your own. Go back to what He says about you.
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You for the gifts and the talents You put in me. Thank You that You made me and whatever You ask me to do You will make sure I have the ability to do it. I will be faithful to develop what You’ve given me and to know that You are with me in my story. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
