JOEL OSTEEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL 27 OCTOBER 2024 MESSAGE
Joel Osteen Daily Devotional 27 October 2024 – Today’s Word with Joel & Victoria Osteen. Read Sunday Daily Devotional Message by Joel Osteen.
TOPIC: By Faith Say So
Today’s Scripture
God, who gives life to the dead, and calls the things that are not, as though they were. – Romans 4:17, WEB
Today’s Word
Today’s Scripture simply means that you shouldn’t talk about the way you are. Talk about the way you want to be. If you’re struggling in your finances, don’t go around saying, “Oh, man, business is so slow. The economy is so down. It’s never going to work out.” That’s calling the things that are as if they will always be that way. That’s just describing the situation. By faith you have to say, “I am blessed. I am successful. I am surrounded by God’s favor.”
The Scripture says, “Let the weak say, ‘I am strong!’”—not the opposite, “I am so tired. I am so run-down.” Let the poor say, “I am well off”—not, “I am broke. I am so in debt.” Don’t call in the wrong things. Have you allowed what somebody said about you to plant negative seeds of what you cannot do?
“You’re not smart enough, talented enough, or attractive enough. You’ll always be mediocre and struggle with your weight.” Get rid of those lies. That is not who you are. You are who God says you are.
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You that I can call the things that are not as though they were. Thank You that I can use my words to become who I want to be. Thank You that I am not limited by what people have spoken negatively over my life. I believe that I am who You say I am. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
