Joel Osteen Daily Devotional 9th July 2025 TOPIC: Approved
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you [and approved of you as My chosen instrument], and before you were born I consecrated you.” – Jeremiah 1:5, AMP
TODAY’S WORD
Before you were born, God not only knew you and chose you, but He put a calling on your life. He put greatness in you. He’s destined you to leave your mark. But the enemy will work overtime to try to make you feel left out, as though you don’t matter. “You’re not smart enough. You don’t fit in. You’re too different. You don’t have a good personality.” Don’t believe those lies. Tune all that out.
God specializes in choosing people like Jeremiah, people who feel they have too many weaknesses and shortcomings. Don’t disqualify yourself. Don’t think that you have too many flaws, that you’re not qualified, that you don’t come from the right background, that you’ve made too many wrong choices. God knew you before you were formed in your mother’s womb. He knew every mistake you would make. He knew what you would struggle with. He knew the environment you’d be raised in. And He still chooses you. He approves you. Your past is forgiven. Your future is bright. You are well able to fulfill your purpose.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You that You approved me before I was formed in my mother’s womb, long before I made my first mistake. Thank You that You chose me and love me despite my weaknesses and shortcomings. I declare that I am going to approve myself and feel good about who I am. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
