Joel Osteen Daily Devotional March 18, 2025 Message. Today’s Word With Joel & Victoria Osteen.
Joel Osteen Daily Devotional March 18, 2025 Tuesday TOPIC: Pray for All People
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. – 1 Timothy 2:1, NLT
TODAY’S WORD
When you believe for favor on others, when you ask God to work in their lives, heaven comes to attention. They may not have the faith, and they may not be living right, but because you’re honoring God and asking on their behalf, God will bless them for your sake. Maybe you’re the one who God’s counting on to stand in the gap for someone who’s way off course. Maybe nobody is praying for that person. Maybe your faith is going to cause that young lady at work to change her life.
Instead of talking about her, instead of criticizing everything she’s doing wrong, why don’t you pray for her? Talking about her isn’t going to help her improve, but prayer will break the chains that are holding her back. Make it your mission to pray for her. Take a moment every morning and go to God on her behalf. Are you praying for others? Life is too short to live self-centered, only thinking about our needs, our goals, our dreams. Use your gift. Stand in the gap. Ask God to bless them.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You that I can stand in the gap for the people in my life who are making poor choices and off course. Thank You that I can cover them in prayer and ask You to be merciful to them. I will make it my mission to pray for them every day and see them reach their destiny. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
