Yes, God’s been good to you. He’s provided. He’s protected. He’s made ways. You could be satisfied, but you haven’t seen anything yet. God loves you too much to let you miss the fullness of what He has in store.

When you keep your mind on what God promised, because you have deep roots, you are drawing from a source that isn't dependent on the weather. You’re not affected by droughts, delays, people’s opinions, the medical report. You’re connected to a supply line that causes you to bloom, to blossom, to flourish. Listen to this message from Joel!

You don’t have to live worried, thinking, “I can’t handle this. I’m in over my head.” No, it’s in you. There is grace for every season. There is strength for your assignment, provision for your calling. Keep moving forward with confidence, knowing that He will sustain you every step of the way. Listen to this message from Joel!

In order for faith to do any good, it has to be released. That happens through saying, praying and doing. #JoyceQuote

@JoelOsteen Keep the Faith.

Faith is not always going to make sense. What God says is not always going to be logical. If you reason it out and check with all the experts and study all the reports, you’ll miss God’s best. God doesn’t ask us to figure it out. All He asks is that we believe.

COTA said it is suspending fares for all transit vehicles through July 3, including service to and from Red, White & Boom. 10tv.com/article/news/l…

It’s good to be grateful, but how about stretching your faith? “God, You promised that, as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. Thank You that my child will fulfill his purpose. Holy Spirit, You’re helping him do what he can’t do on his own.” That’s marking new territory. That’s announcing to the enemy that, “You can’t stay on my land. That is God's property.”

Fire gives us focus. What has your focus? #TransformedThroughTrouble

I wouldn’t be where I am today without the love and support that @MichelleObama has poured into me over the years. Her story — from her South Side roots to the White House and beyond — is a central part of the Obama Presidential Center.

No matter what has happened to you in your life, no matter what you've done or what's been done to you, it is never too late to press into a new beginning. #JoyceQuote

The truth is that you are already beautiful in God's eyes…God loves you. He wants you to receive His love and accept yourself. #JoyceQuote

People don’t have the final say. What God has purposed for your life will come to pass. God will override what should have stopped you, the people that have more power and influence. He’ll override sickness, addictions, storms. He won’t let you face a challenge that He can’t bring you out of.

Depression can be paralyzing. It can steal your joy and take away your normal ability to function. Just as joy is a healing force from God, depression is a sickening force from the devil. You can’t mess with self-pity too long and not expect Satan to try to dump a load of bone-drying depression on you. Joy creates a change in your emotions. Suddenly my spirit starts telling my soul what to do! And you’d better know my emotions line up! Merriness makes its presence known, and that surge of joy creates a river of living water that starts to come out of my belly—my innermost being! Then I can pass it on to others who need a shot of joy. jdm.org/product/203/br…

You have to be still and listen. God knows what’s best for you. The reason He keeps calling is He has something amazing in your future. When you answer that call, you’ll step into purpose, peace, and fulfillment that you’ve never known.

God never just fills a cup to the top; He causes it to run over! That’s just His way. He isn’t looking to give you just enough; He’s looking to give you more than enough! So never be afraid to expect great things from the Lord. Doesn’t 1 Corinthians 2:9 say, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him? He loves you! And His heart’s desire is that you love Him too!

God is fighting for you. He sees what you’re going through. He knows what you’re up against. Your time is coming. God said “Every mountain shall be brought down. Every high thing will be flattened out.” What God started in your life, He will finish.
