Joel Osteen Daily Devotional 29 April 2026 TOPIC: What Do You Have?
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?”
John 6:9, NKJV
TODAY’S WORD
Late in the day, Jesus was teaching a great crowd in a remote place. He asked His disciples where they could buy bread to feed so many people. They said it would be too expensive and impractical, so Jesus asked them, “What do you have?” All they could find was five loaves of bread and two fish, “but what is that among so many?” That’s a logical question. But Jesus didn’t ask them to figure out how it was going to happen. He just asked them to use what they had and believe that He could take what seems too small and make something great out of it. The enemy would love for you to get stuck, thinking you’re at a deficit. “When I get more funds, more training, more breaks, then I can move forward.” But you’re not lacking anything you need to fulfill your purpose. Don’t overlook or discount what God has given you. Don’t go around with a disadvantaged mentality. Recognize the gifts and talents you have and use what you have, and He’ll take the natural and do something supernatural.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You for the gifts and talents You have given me and how You multiply them whenever I put them into Your hands. Help me to not overlook or discount what I have but rather use it for You. I believe that Your grace, favor, and mercy will abound in my life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
