Joel Osteen Daily Devotional 27th April 2025 Message. Today’s Word With Joel & Victoria Osteen.
Joel Osteen Daily Devotional 27 April 2025 Sunday TOPIC: Discover Your Wings
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
He was like an eagle hovering over its nest, overshadowing its young, Then spreading its wings, lifting them into the air, teaching them to fly.
Deuteronomy 32:11, MSG
TODAY’S WORD
For the eaglet, the nest is a blessing for a time. High on a cliff, it’s safe, comfortable, well taken care of. Life is good. But at a certain point, the nest will no longer be a blessing; it will be a hindrance. The eaglet can only develop so far in the nest, and if the mother doesn’t stir things up and make it uncomfortable, it won’t learn to fly or to survive.
Sometimes the nest we’re in is too small. As much as we like it, it’s limiting our ability. You’re comfortable, provided for, protected, but the problem is you’ll never discover your wings in the nest. You’ll never reach your potential without having to stretch, try new things, develop new muscles. You may think, “What’s happening? Things have changed, and it’s more difficult.
My friend walked away, and my coworker won’t help me anymore.” You may not like the stirring, but it’s God working in your life to help you discover your wings and learn to fly. When He does, don’t shrink back. You’re going to rise to levels you never thought possible.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You that You know what’s best for me, and You’re pushing, stretching, and enlarging me for a reason. Thank You for what’s uncomfortable and for bringing change. I believe that You’re stirring things up so I will spread my wings and rise to a higher level. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
