How Are You Handling Worry?

Did you know that the word worry comes from the Old English wyrgan, which means “to strangle?” If we let them, worry and stress literally choke the joy out of our lives. So how are you handling worry?Worry pulls us away from God’s power, but worship draws us to Him, and His presence changes us.

What's On Your Throne - Joel Osteen

God wants to reign in your life in a new way. He wants to show you his favor like you’ve never seen.But are you letting worry, offense, or a problem consume your mind to where you’re not giving God any thought? You see, what you constantly think about or give your attention to, is what you’re putting on the throne. Life is too short to live worried, overwhelmed by problems, and upset.

Your gift isn’t just for you; it’s to share with the world.Are you hiding your gifts, talents and personality today because of fear? It’s time to let your light shine!

This message will help you step out of the boat and be all that God has created you to be.

God's Got This - Joel Osteen

We all have things that come against us and experience things we don’t understand. It’s easy to live uptight wondering how everything is going to work out. It we’re not careful, we’ll get discouraged, live worried, and not believe things are going to change. But there’s a simple phrase you have to get down in your spirit - God’s got this. Joel wants to teach you in this encouraging message that you don’t have to figure it all out. In the natural, you may not see a way, but that’s okay, we serve a supernatural God. He sees what’s happening in our lives and already has a solution. Instead of living frustrated, learn to let go and let God. When you turn it over to Him and say, “God, I know You’ve got this. I know You’re in control,” not only will you feel the heaviness lift off of you, but God will make things happen that you couldn’t make happen on your own.

The Chain Breaker - Joel Osteen

You were not created to be bound.It doesn’t matter how big of a struggle you may face, or how long something has held you back, time is not a limiting factor with our God.

Don't Faint In Your Mind - Joel Osteen

But Joel wants to excite your faith and show you how Hebrew 12:1 teaches us that all of heaven is cheering you on!When you feel alone and are tempted to faint in your mind and settle, you can look up and see through your eyes of faith that all of heaven is rooting for you. You’re not running alone!Let this message inspire you to persevere through your trials so you can leave a mark on the generation so that they can go even further in life.

The Twenty-First Day - Joel Osteen

The Psalmist said in Psalm 56:9, “The moment you pray, the tide of the battle turns.” In the unseen realm, God begins to change things in your favor the moment you pray. But many times, when we’ve been praying for a long time for something, and don’t see anything happening in the natural, it can seem like God went on vacation and our prayers aren’t doing any good. Joel wants to show you that even when you can’t see behind the scenes, God is at work. He not only heard you when you prayed, but He took it one step further; He put the miracle in motion.Just because you don’t see anything happening doesn’t mean the answer is not on the way. The people that see breakthroughs and promises fulfilled are the people that keep praying, keep believing and keep standing in faith. This message will inspire and equip you to be one of those people!

Keep Your Joy - Joel Osteen

Are you letting the little things steal your joy? We all have opportunities to get upset and go around frustrated each day. But in the big picture, most of the things that are upsetting us don’t really matter. Joel wants to teach you how to keep your joy no matter what goes on around you. Psalm 94:13 teaches us that God gives us the power to remain calm in times of adversity. We can’t control how other people act or what happens to us, but we can control how we respond.Don’t let the small things keep you from seeing the gift of each day. Live from a place of peace and joy each day and watch your life change for the better.

More Than Enough - Joel Osteen

Psalm 35:27 tells us that God takes pleasure in prospering and increasing us in ways that we can never imagine. Yet, many people today live with a limited mindset expecting to barely get by when God has so much more for His children!Joel will show you in this exciting message how lack is not your destiny. You were created to live an abundant life.Let this message build your expectancy level for the exciting things God wants to do in your life. When you keep God first place, there is a blessing on your life that causes you to prosper, favor that causes you to increase, to rise higher and accomplish things beyond your own ability.

Just Obey - Joel Osteen

Every day there are opportunities where God longs to speak to you and situations where He wants to guide you down the best path. But first, we have to listen.Isaiah 1:19 says, “If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good things of the land.” In this message, Joel will show you how many times we don’t realize that God is speaking to us. You will learn how God has secrets He wants to whisper to you with inside information that will propel you forward. If you’ll be sensitive to His voice, the still, small voice, the promptings, suggestions and alarms, then God will save you from heartache and pain. He’ll lead you into promotion and favor. There’s no limit to where God will take you!

From Patient to Physician - Joel Osteen

Paul said in 2 Corinthians 1:4, “The comfort we received in our difficulties, we can share that same comfort with others in their time of need.” Joel will encourage you in this message to live life outward. Who can you bless today? Who can you encourage with your gifts and experiences?Live life as a blesser, a lifter, a healer by using what you’ve been through to help someone else. You are where you are today because someone else poured into you. God is counting on us to be the difference maker in someone else’s life.If you’ll let healing flow to others and tell what God has done, speak life and healing, share your skills, talents and resources, then there’s no limit to how high God will take you.

Strengthen Your Inner Man - Victoria Osteen

Paul prayed for the Ephesians “that God would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man” (Ephesians 3:16). The inner man is strengthened by God through the Spirit. We have to take time; we have to find room in our busy lives to let the Spirit of God minister life to us, to be touched by the Word of God and the very presence of Almighty God because that’s what strengthens our inner man. We cannot neglect our inner man or we’ll be weak, undisciplined, and weary on the inside. Today I encourage you to develop your personal relationship with God on a daily basis. Make it a habit to renew and strengthen your inner man because that’s how your life will be transformed.

Contentment Is a State of Mind - Victoria Osteen

Finding contentment is a goal we should strive for every day. A lot of people get confused about the concept of contentment because they think it means they have to settle for where they are. However, there's a huge difference between being content and being complacent. When you are content, you are satisfied; you're full. It's not that you aren't pursuing your goals or striving to reach new levels, you are just able to enjoy where you are on the way to where you are going.

Hearing In Your Spirit - Joel Osteen

Just as we have physical ears, we have spiritual ears where God speaks to us.Many times, God will speak things that contradict what we see with our eyes. That’s why we have to walk by faith and not by sight.People may tell you that you’ll never get well, circumstances may look like you’ll never get out of debt, never meet the right person, or never accomplish your dreams. But if you listen with your spiritual ears, you’ll hear a voice saying, “Healing is coming. You will lend and not borrow. New doors are about to open.” 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.When you get in agreement with God then you will become what He says about you. You will have what He says you’ll have!

Recognizing Your Value - Joel Osteen

Too often, we base our value on how somebody is treating us, how successful we are, or how perfectly we have lived our life. The problem is that all of those things can change. Joel wants to show you how your value doesn’t come from people or things; it comes from your Creator.You may feel average today, but 1 John 4:4 says, “You belong to God.” You are extremely valuable! Learn to recognize your value in who God made you to be and how He sees you. You are a child of the Most High God! This message will give you a fresh, new confidence in who God made you to be.

Just One Good Break - Joel Osteen

You may have situations that don’t look like they’ll ever change, but God has already arranged good breaks in your future. All it takes is just one touch of God’s favor! Joel will show you how you can live from a place of peace and rest knowing that God is not only fighting your battles, but He’s lined up the exact situations you need in your life to bring you where you’re supposed to be. He has the right people that are going to help you already planned out. He has solutions to problems that you can’t even see right now.You don’t have to live life worried about how things will work out anymore because God has promised in Psalm 138:8 that He will work out His plan for your life. Instead, release your faith and trust Him. His plan is better than your plan!

Manasseh is Coming - Joel Osteen

Do you feel forgotten today? Have you gone through situations that are so painful and hard to forget, you don’t know how you’ll ever feel light again?If there’s anyone who understands heartache and betrayal, it’s Joseph. He was betrayed by his brothers, thrown into a pit, and eventually sold into slavery. But all along, God had a plan for Joseph. After his trials, Joseph ended up being in charge of all Egypt. He was blessed in such a way that he said in Genesis 41:51 (AMP), “God has made me forget all my trouble and hardship.” He named his son Manasseh which means in Hebrew “causing to forget.”Like Joseph, God wants to bless you in such a way that you won’t remember the pain of the past. You may feel forgotten, but God hasn’t forgotten about you. He’s seen your heartache and has collected every tear you’ve shed. He’s going to turn your pain around in such a way that you’re overwhelmed with His goodness. God is going to cause you to forget!

It's a Setup - Joel Osteen

Nothing has randomly happened in your life. Everything has been carefully orchestrated, even the good and the bad, the blessings and the disappointments. Even in times where we’ve failed and made mistakes, God has already planned how to restore us and get us back on course.God has ordered your steps. Your life is divinely orchestrated. Let Joel teach you how to keep moving forward even when you don’t understand. Stay in faith when people betray you. Do the right thing when the wrong thing is happening. Your time is coming. What God has ordained will come to pass! No person, situation, or thing can stop what God has ordained for your life!

Be Mindful of the Words You Speak - Victoria Osteen

Jesus said, “The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63). When you get the Word of God in your mouth, you create a strong, spiritual life that will send you on the course to life. Your words will direct you beside still waters and take you to green pastures. They’ll lead you to refreshment for your soul. Let’s be very attentive to the words that we speak. Let’s remember our words are containers of power that can direct our course. We can prophesy our future.

Develop Self-Control To Rise Higher With God - Victoria Osteen

We all have the capacity to grow and produce more than we’re producing right now. We all can do more for God. We have so much more inside us!But you have to say, “No, I’m not going to let the flesh run wild. I’m going to put it under control with my strong spirit man.” Discipline and self-control are the tools that God gave you to succeed and to reach your full potential.
