Joel Osteen Daily Devotional 22nd October 2025 (Wednesday) Message. Today’s Word With Joel & Victoria Osteen.
TOPIC: Something Sacred
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
Then Samson prayed to the LORD, “Sovereign LORD, remember me again. O God, please strengthen me just one more time. With one blow let me pay back the Philistines for the loss of my two eyes.”
Judges 16:28, NLT
TODAY’S WORD
Samson’s birth was prophesied. He was called to deliver his people before his birth. He was given supernatural strength, something sacred. He knew God’s hand was on him, but he started hanging around the wrong people. Instead of protecting and using what God had entrusted him with, he didn’t take seriously what God had given him and compromised. He played around with his talent and potential, and he eventually lost it.
This once powerful man, who was prophesied to do great things, ended up blinded and chained by enemies. Yet even though he mishandled his calling, God gave him another chance, giving him the strength to push the middle pillars of a temple, collapsing the building and killing more enemies in his death than he had during his lifetime.
If you don’t see what God has given you as valuable, as sacred, you’ll end up mishandling it. Protect His calling on your life—your marriage, your children, your career. And if you’ve let it slip, God is giving you another chance. Answer His call today. He’s about to do something amazing in your life.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You for the destiny that You have called me to fulfill. Thank You that You have redeemed me and that Your mercies cover my mistakes and failures. I’m going to keep moving forward knowing that You always have another ‘one more time’ for me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
