Joel Osteen

Having faith during times of suffering means not complaining under pressure. Instead, you trust God when the heavens seem silent, you thank Him that He’s working. That’s when angels show up.

The suffering is not permanent. It's a season designed for you to pass through so that you can come into the power and fullness and abundance that God has in store. Listen to this message from Joel, "Grace for Gethsemane": https://t.co/fzO8ZeVnAZ https://t.co/kATWWZmw5S

Real victory is not when God does everything you like, changes all the negative circumstances, fixes all the people who get on your nerves. Real victory is when all that happens, but it doesn’t bother you anymore. You’re content while God is working right where you are.

God being silent doesn’t mean that He’s not there. That’s a test. That’s when you have to show God that you’re going to trust Him even when you don’t hear Him, you’re going to keep believing even though nothing is changing.

It’s not a coincidence that before Jesus went to the cross, before He rose from the dead, He had to go through the Garden of Gethsemane. That’s where He sweat great drops of blood. That's where He was pressured but didn't give up. Tune into Joel’s message, "Grace for Gethsemane": https://t.co/R8urikxX3R

Two thousand years ago, when Jesus came up out of the grave, He defeated everything that can hold you back. He took care of it once and for all. The Scripture says, “He rendered the enemy powerless.”

Because you inquired of the Lord, God is going to give you wisdom, insight, clear direction. That disappointment was difficult, but it wasn’t wasted. It prepared you. You learned the lesson. This time, you’re going to do it the right way.

If it weren’t for His goodness, His mercy, His strength, we wouldn’t be here. God is counting on us to let our light shine. What you’ve been through will help somebody else get through it. Be on the lookout for who you can encourage.

If you’ll make a move, you’ll feel God’s power in a new way. This time there will be great joy, great dancing, great celebration. You’re going to look back and say, “Look what the Lord has done!” He's going to exceed your expectations. Click here to watch: "Time to Try Again" https://t.co/FARMpLRx9X

Christ stooped down from heaven to be born in a manger. He stooped down to be mocked, betrayed, beaten and even crucified. He didn’t have to. The good news is He didn’t stay down. He rose again. He defeated death, hell, and the grave for you and me.

In a drought, God will talk to you about rain. In lack, He’ll talk to you about abundance. When you feel insignificant, like you’ll never make anything out of your life, He’ll talk to you about greatness. He’ll put things in your spirit that seem impossible to accomplish.

Are you your own worst enemy? Are you defeating yourself, limiting your dreams, sabotaging your relationships, all because you don’t like yourself? You have enough people and circumstances against you. Don’t be against yourself.

Your generosity has helped restored hope to victims who were impacted by Hurricane Helene last September. Because of you, we were able to partner up with Operation Blessing to help re-build their homes and businesses in Asheville, North Carolina. Thank you for your support! https://t.co/UlUsgbEpFy
