Today Joel Osteen 1st December 2023 Devotional Message
Today’s Joel Osteen Daily Devotional for Friday 1 December 2023 written by Joel & Victoria Osteen. God bless you as you study!
Today’s Topic: Do You Have to Understand?
Today’s Scripture: Since the Lord is directing our steps, why try to understand everything that happens along the way? – Proverbs 20:24, TLB
Today’s Word – Joel Osteen
When you study the lives of the heroes of the faith, you see that twists and turns, delays, detours, and disappointments were the norm. So, are you frustrated because you don’t understand something that’s happened to you, upset over a bad break, worried because of a delay? How do you know it’s not the hand of God leading you to your throne? How do you know that you’re not a Joseph or a David?
How do you know that you’re not right on course, right on schedule, to see what God promised you? It may not happen like you think. God uses difficulties to position us for destiny. What you’re upset about is a necessary step. That closed door or delay is instrumental in you reaching your purpose.
Don’t try to understand everything that happens along the way. God works in mysterious ways. If you’re trying to figure everything out, you’re going to get confused. There are things you’re not supposed to understand. That’s what faith is all about.
A Prayer for Today
“Father, thank You that You are the Most High God who is directing my steps. Thank You that You are in control and that I don’t have to understand every detail along the way. I believe You are using it to transport me to my purpose. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
