Joel Osteen Devotional 26th September 2025 Thursday Inspirational
Today’s Topic: A Perfect Fit
MESSAGE: When the rough fisherman Peter first realized who Jesus was, it exposed his heart as unworthy of Jesus’ presence. But only moments later, Jesus called Peter to become one of His fishers for people. Jesus could have chosen someone more talented, more educated, more refined, and with a religious background. He could have found someone from a more influential family, with a lot fewer weaknesses and less baggage. But on purpose He chose Peter.
Although Jesus knew all the mistakes Peter would make, He knew that Peter was a perfect fit to become the apostle who would take the lead in the early church.
Don’t go your whole life thinking you don’t measure up, you don’t perform good enough, you’re not talented enough. You’ve been handpicked by the Creator of the universe. In spite of all the negatives you think about yourself, He calls you a masterpiece, one of a kind, fearfully and wonderfully made. Quit beating yourself up, thinking you don’t qualify. The fact that He chose you means He’s already equipped you, empowered you, and anointed you. Step into your greatness.
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You that You see world changers in rugged fishermen like Peter. Thank You that You’re working in my life just as You did in Peter, and You will bring me to completion. I am looking beyond my flaws and failures to see the masterpiece in the making. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
TODAY INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE: Don’t let the environment determine your identity. You may have no money, no connections, no way in the natural, but God is supernatural. He won’t put a dream in your heart that He can’t bring to pass. But there will be these times of testing, where circumstances seem just the opposite. People telling you it’s not going to happen, “Don’t get your hopes up. You saw the report. You don’t come from the right family.
You’re not king material. You’re just a shepherd boy.” Let that go in one ear and out the other. People don’t determine your destiny. They can’t see what God put in you. They didn’t hear what God whispered to you in the night. Don’t expect everyone to cheer you on.
