Joel Osteen Daily Devotional March 20, 2025 Thursday TOPIC: Wait Expectantly
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
Listen to my voice in the morning, LORD. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly. – Psalm 5:3, NLT
TODAY’S WORD
Are you in a waiting season today? You’re tempted to give up on what God put in your heart, to settle for less. No, don’t water down your dreams. Before the promise is fulfilled, you have to pass the discouragement test. When you’re waiting, doubt comes, saying, “It should have happened by now.
You’ll never get well, never meet the right person, never see your family restored.” This is when many people get discouraged and miss their miracle, thinking that God has forgotten about them. What you do while you’re waiting will determine whether you see the promise. It’s not enough to just pray in faith.
You have to wait in faith, wait knowing that God is working, wait expecting it to show up. Every time doubt comes, turn it around and say, “Father, thank You that everything You promised is coming—healing, breakthroughs, abundance.” Dig your heels in and have some holy determination.
Your attitude should be: “I will not give up. I will not let people, delays, circumstances, or bad breaks talk me out of what God put in my heart.”
PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You that everything You’ve promised me will be released in my life because You are faithful. Thank You that You hear my prayers and that the answers are on the way. I am looking for Your goodness and believing for Your favor today. I will not give up. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
