JOEL OSTEEN Daily Devotional 18th January 2024: Transfers

Today’s Topic: Transfers

Today’s Scripture: A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, but the sinner’s wealth is laid up for the righteous. – Proverbs 13:22, ESV

Today’s Word – Joel Osteen

God may have put a dream in our heart to start a business, to leave an inheritance to our children’s children, or to help build an orphanage, but we don’t have the bank account, the position, or the influence to do it. You may have a vision you’re not able to accomplish on your own. The good news is that the Scripture says that a transfer of what is needed is already lined up. God doesn’t give you the vision without having provisions. Because you’re the righteous, because you keep God first place, you’re faithful, generous, and good to others, God says He’s going to take from those who are not using their resources in a positive way.

They’re only focused on themselves and not using their influence or their means to help mankind. He’s going to transfer that into your hands. It doesn’t say how He will do it, perhaps through good breaks and divine connections that come to you rather than someone else. It’s going to be out of the ordinary, where you have the means to accomplish things you’ve never dreamed.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that I never need to worry about how I can fulfill my dreams because You have placed Your hand of blessing upon my life. Thank You that You have ways of bringing me all that I need, even through the transfer of what might have gone to others. I believe You have great things laid up for me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
