Joel Osteen Devotional 20 August 2025 Wednesday Inspirational
Today’s Topic: It’s in Transit
Scripture: “I will answer them before they even call to me.” Isaiah 65:24, NLT
Today’s Word
Don’t ever put God in a box. Quit worrying because you don’t see any way something can happen. Perhaps you don’t have the finances, the medical report is not good, or you don’t know the right people to help you. As far as you can see, there’s no chance. God knew what you’d need long before you had the need. He has ways to make it happen that you’ve never thought of, and He knows how to get it to you. He has answers on the way before you have asked.
If you could see all the things that are already in transit for you right now, you wouldn’t worry. You wouldn’t live wondering if it’s going to happen, frustrated because you didn’t get what you were hoping for. When it’s your set time on God’s timetable, it’s coming to you. Quit worrying. Get up every morning with the expectancy that it’s in transit. God may not bring you what you thought or in the way you thought, but what He has will be bigger, better, and more rewarding than you ever imagined.
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You that before I even ask You for my needs and desires, You’ve already lined them up and have them headed my way. Thank You for the people, the favor, and the promotion You’ve ordained to come across my path. I believe that even now answers to my prayers are on the way. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
TODAY’S INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE: Just because you’re having trouble doesn’t mean you’re not in God’s will. When you step out to do what He’s called you to do—take new ground, live with excellence and integrity—you’re going to have opposition, trouble, naysayers. The enemy doesn’t want you to move forward. But the good news is the favor on your life will keep those enemies from defeating you. They may come, but if you’ll stay in faith, they will fail. No weapon formed against you will prosper. When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Scripture says, the Spirit of God will raise up a barrier. The Spirit of God is the favor of God. Keep doing the right thing. Don’t get distracted fighting battles that you’re not supposed to fight.
