Joel Osteen Daily Devotional 14th August 2024: Keep Growing
TODAY’S JOEL OSTEEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE FOR WEDNESDAY 14 AUGUST 2024
Today’s Scripture
Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. – Philippians 3:12, NIV
Joel Osteen Daily Devotional 14th August 2024 Message:
Today’s Word
God has put more in you than you can even imagine. You have gifts and talents that nobody else has. You have a responsibility not only to God, not only to your family, but also to yourself to develop what He’s put in you. Whether you’re nine or ninety years old, you should constantly be learning, improving your skills, and getting better at what you do.
With the Internet, books, schools, and seminars, there is more knowledge available today than any time in history. Don’t settle where you are and get stuck. Turn off the TV and invest in yourself. Too often we sit back and think, “God, I’m waiting on You for that big break.” That’s the wrong attitude.
The people who get the big breaks are people who are prepared, who develop their skills continuously. You have to be proactive to take these steps to grow. When God sees you doing your part and developing what He’s given you, He’ll do His part and open doors that no man can shut.
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You for the treasure You put inside me—the talents and the potential—and all of the opportunities You provide for my growth. I don’t want to coast through life relying on what I’ve already learned, but I want to do everything I can to develop my gifts and potential. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
