Joel Osteen Devotional 22 June 2019 – What Is Taking Root?
Topic: What is Taking Root?
Today’s Word
God is constantly trying to plant new seeds of victory on the inside of you. He’s trying to increase you. He’s trying to enlarge your vision. He wants to take you to new levels of victory. But before you see a harvest, the seed has to take root. You have to conceive it before you are going to receive it.
In other words, before you’re ever going to be successful, you’ve got to see yourself successful. Before you’re ever going to have your dreams come to pass, you have to look out through your eyes of faith and see them coming to pass. That’s how you allow the seed to take root.
Joel Osteen Devotional 22 June 2019 – What Is Taking Root?
Today, I encourage you to examine your thought life. What are you allowing to take root? Are God’s seeds of victory and life growing in your heart and mind, or are you nurturing seeds of defeat and despair?
The good news is that you can change your thoughts right now, this very moment. Begin to dwell on God’s promises and His goodness, and you will be filled with hope. Let His good seeds take root in your mind and heart. It won’t be long before you’ll see that harvest of blessing come forth in every area of your life!
A Prayer for Today
Father God, today I surrender every area of mind, will and emotions to You. I choose to dwell on Your goodness and faithfulness so that the good seeds You’ve planted in my life will take root.
Keep me close to You and direct my steps down the good path You have prepared for me in Jesus’ name. Amen.
