Joel Osteen Daily Devotional April 6, 2025 Sunday TOPIC: Every Day Is a Gift
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.
James 4:14, NKJV
TODAY’S WORD
God has given you another day to be alive, to enjoy your family, to pursue your dreams and to go after your goals. Sometimes we let the pressures of life—the traffic, what somebody said, a challenge at work—to keep us from enjoying the day. We think it’s just another ordinary day, but there’s no such thing as an ordinary day. Every day is a gift from God.
Our life is like a vapor that’s here for a minute and then gone. If we really understood how valuable each day is, we would live it happier. It’s easy to take every day for granted, to just get up, go through the motions, deal with the challenges, and the day is gone. But if you start seeing every day as your best day, you won’t let the little things upset you.
You’ll take time to enjoy the people whom God has given you to love. You’ll stop by and say hello to the neighbor who’s lonely. You’ll think more faith-filled thoughts. You’ll live with more gratitude. You’ll make the most of each day.
PRAYER OF THE DAY
“Father, thank You for this reminder to take time for what really matters. Thank You for my family, my friends, and the loved ones You’ve brought into my life. Help me to love them and care for them in a way that reflects Your love for them and for me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
About Joel Osteen
Raised in Houston, Texas, with a loving family of seven and world-renowned parents in full-time ministry, Joel Osteen never imagined that he would follow so closely in his father’s footsteps. As a young man, his training and interests were behind the scenes in television production, though he was close to his father in ministry. (Joel Osteen Daily Devotional April 6, 2025)
