JOEL OSTEEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL 3RD DECEMBER 2024 MESSAGE
Joel Osteen Daily Devotional 3rd December 2024 – Today’s Word with Joel & Victoria Osteen. Read Tuesday Daily Devotional Message by Joel Osteen.
TOPIC: Possess the Land
Today’s Scripture
See, I set before you today life and prosperity, death and destruction. For I command you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in obedience to him…then you will live and increase, and the LORD your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess. – Deuteronomy 30:15–16, NIV
Today’s Word
Even though the first generation of Israelites that came out of slavery in Egypt had seen great miracles and were finally free, they turned back from entering the Promised Land when they saw the fortified cities and giants. They believed the wrong story that God would not make them victorious, that they always would be a defeated people. They came out of Egypt, but Egypt never came out of them.
Forty years later, the second generation had a different story. Their attitude was that they were going to see the fulfillment of today’s Scripture. They would not let their doubts, their fears, or the opposition rewrite their story and keep them in the wilderness. They saw themselves as sons and daughters of the Most High God. They were going to enjoy the abundance and blessings that their parents could have had.
Don’t do as their parents did and let a wrong story—what you’ve been through, what looks too big—convince you that you can’t defeat your giants, you can’t accomplish your dream, or you can’t be healthy, successful, and fulfilled.
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You that You are always greater than any difficulty or adversity I will ever face. Thank You that my story is not that of a defeated slave, but I am well able to go in and take possession of the land. I believe that You are going to help me defeat giants and strongholds. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
