It Is Finished

December 30, 2018 08:30 - 27 minutes - 30 Bytes

In this message, Joel will show that instead of accepting an addiction as a part of your life and allowing it to stay, you need to announce to that addiction: “It is finished! You don’t control me, and you can’t keep me from my destiny. The price has been paid. I am free. I am whole. I am clean.”  When you rise up and tell the past, tell the poverty, tell the guilt, “It is finished! This is not who I am. I am blessed. I am prosperous. I am victorious,” strongholds are broken in the unseen re...

During seasons of discouragement, when you are tempted to try to manipulate or force God’s promise, choose to remain in faith. Nothing that you have done has disqualified you from receiving God’s promise—His mercy is greater than any mistake. God’s timing is always strategic.

God Has Great Purpose For Your Life

December 04, 2018 08:30 - 15 minutes - 30 Bytes

In this message, Victoria will teach that everything we do produces a seed and leaves something for future generations.

It's Payback Time

December 02, 2018 08:30 - 27 minutes - 30 Bytes

Be Vulnerable

November 23, 2018 08:30 - 27 minutes - 30 Bytes

In this message, Joel will teach it’s easy to go through life trying to impress people, to show them that we’re strong, that we have it all together. But if you’ll humble yourself, empty out your pride, your fear, your doubts and get real, God will help you to grow. You’ll come up higher.

Let Go of the Small Things

November 20, 2018 08:30 - 7 minutes - 30 Bytes

In this message, Victoria will teach that everything doesn't have to be perfect before we enjoy life. Have you ever been planning something and wanted things so perfect but it didn't go your way?

Pulled Strings

November 18, 2018 13:30 - 27 minutes - 30 Bytes

It’s easy to go through life wondering how things are going to work out. But you don’t have to worry about your future. Your life is divinely orchestrated. God has determined the end from the beginning. He is behind the scenes not only directing your steps, but directing the steps of the people you need. He’s not just in control of your life, He’s in control of all your circumstances. You can live from a place of peace, knowing that nothing randomly happens. Your steps are divinely orchestr...

Peace With Your Scars

November 16, 2018 13:30 - 27 minutes - 30 Bytes

You can’t live very long without being injured and going through hurts and pains. Sometimes the wound heals up and you don’t have any sign that it ever happened. But there are certain injuries that are so severe, a cut so deep that when they heal up, the pain goes away, but they leave a scar. Maybe you have been scarred by a divorce, by what somebody said, by a mistake you made, or by a loss. Joel wants to show you how you don’t have to try to hide your scars or be embarrassed by what you’...

The Power of Remembering

November 13, 2018 08:30 - 11 minutes - 30 Bytes

In the Old Testament, God commanded the children of Israel to take time out of their busy schedule, several times of year, to remember the miracles; how he parted the Red Sea, how he brought water out of the rock, how manna came down from heaven. He wanted them to pause and remember the wonders he had done. So often we forget when we should remember. Sometimes, we remember what we should forget. Let's remember the good to strengthen our life. The Psalmist said, "remember what the Lord has do...

Don't Fight It

November 07, 2018 08:30 - 28 minutes - 30 Bytes

Keep Your Heart From Offense

November 06, 2018 08:30 - 11 minutes - 30 Bytes

Proverbs 19:11 says, "good sense makes one slow to anger and it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense." It does us no good to go around offended.There’s always going to be reasons to take an offense.  The word offense comes from the Greek word which means bait. Sometimes that’s what happens to use with offense. It lures use into a trap. We get upset, frustrated, and bitter.  Listen, don’t take bait. You can’t take the bait of offense and live in victory, joy, and peace. Shake off the any...

By This Time Next Year

November 04, 2018 13:30 - 27 minutes - 30 Bytes

We all have situations that look permanent, like they’ll never turn around. It’s easy to get discouraged and accept that it’s not going to work out. But what you can’t see is that God is working behind the scenes in your life. It’s time to get ready for God to show out in your life. We serve a supernatural God. You may not see anything changing, but stay in faith. One touch of His favor can make everything fall into place. You’ll be encouraged in this message to let go of the lies that your ...

Waiting With Expectancy

October 31, 2018 09:30 - 28 minutes - 30 Bytes

Waiting with expectancy means instead of worrying if God is going to answer a prayer, you’re thanking Him for working behind the scenes, talking like a miracle is just around the corner, and acting like the answer is on its way.  Visit https://joelosteen.com to receive daily updates and encouragement from Joel Osteen. --- Have you followed Joel Osteen on Instagram?  https://instagram.com/joelosteen.  

Sleep On

October 28, 2018 09:30 - 27 minutes - 30 Bytes

God doesn’t remove every frustration in our lives. In fact, many of the things that frustrate us, God uses to grow us and take us to the next level. Joel will show you how to live in peace no matter your circumstance. You will learn how to deal with difficult people, let go of the approval of others, and run your race strong, focused, and unshakeable!  The Scripture says in Psalm 46:10, “Be still and know that I am God.” As you learn to let go and let God, you will enjoy your life more and b...

Renew Your Mind

October 23, 2018 09:30 - 14 minutes - 30 Bytes

The scripture says in Romans 12, "do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." Our salvation on this earth starts in our mind. We're justified in our spirit, but we have to be sanctified in our mind. We have to set our mind apart from the old way of doing and being.

Keep Your Vision In Front of You

October 14, 2018 09:30 - 28 minutes - 30 Bytes

Many people lose their passion in life because there is nothing to remind them of their dreams, hopes and prayers. If you’ll have a big vision, God will not only do what you’re dreaming about, He will do more than you can ask or think.

Your Faith

October 14, 2018 09:30 - 30 Bytes

There’s nothing more powerful than your faith. When you believe, that’s what activates God’s power.  Are you living with expectancy knowing that God is bigger than your problems, greater than that sickness, and more powerful than that addiction? Or, are you discouraged, thinking things will never change? It’s time to get your faith back; God is passing by. He has all power. You have to be more determined than what’s trying to stop you if you’re going to reach your potential. In this message...

How Are You Handling Worry?

October 09, 2018 09:30 - 30 Bytes

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.

A Son Mentality

October 07, 2018 09:30 - 30 Bytes

We’ve all been through disappointments and unfair situations. Because of negative things of the past, even mistakes we’ve made, it’s easy to have the wrong image of ourselves. Too many times we’ve developed a slave mentality where we don’t pray bold prayers, we don’t believe for our dreams, and we don’t expect good breaks because we feel unworthy. But 1 John 3:2 tells us we are sons of God. Joel wants to help you gain a new vision and understanding of who you are, not thinking about what you...

Investing In Your Future - Victoria Osteen

September 19, 2018 09:30 - 30 Bytes

I want to remind you today to spend your time investing in your future, not in the past. Investing in the past is when you relive your pains and disappointments, focusing on who hurt you, what didn’t work out, and the mistakes you’ve made. That’s a waste of time and energy. You can’t do anything about what happened in your past—it’s over with. But you can do something about today. When you focus on what you can change, and not on what you can’t change, that is a good investment in the future.
