Joel Osteen Devotional 6 August 2025 Wednesday Inspirational
Today’s Topic: Immovable
Today’s Scripture
“But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy.”
Acts 20:24, NKJV
Today’s Word
It’s great when feelings assist us, when we feel hopeful, positive, encouraged. But you can’t depend on those feelings because they come and go. Feelings can lead you astray. If you’re only going to have a good mood if things go your way, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment. That’s surface living. You have to go deeper and say as Paul did, “None of these things move me. I’m not going to let other people, delays, or what doesn’t work out to sour my day.” In other words, turn it over to God.
You’re not supposed to go through life carrying around worries, stress, disappointments, and discouragement. Yes, you have some negative feelings, but you don’t have to let the feelings have you. You may feel upset, but you don’t have to act on it. You may feel offended, but you don’t have to take in the offense. You may feel discouraged, but you can override it with thoughts that are full of faith, hope, and expectancy. Get your mind going in a new direction and choose to have a good mood.
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You that I can shut the door on the negative feelings that come against me and keep what You have promised and said about me close to my heart. Thank You that none of these things need move me. I declare that my hope and expectancy is in You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
TODAY’S INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE: People may not understand. They may think you’re far out, you’re not accepting reality. In one sense, it’s not their fault. They didn’t hear what you heard. Don’t expect them to cheer you on; don’t expect them to agree with you. If you needed them to fulfill your purpose, then they would agree with you. If they don’t, then you don’t need their support, you don’t need their approval, you don’t need their encouragement. Don’t let them talk you out of what you heard.
