Today Joel Osteen 6th December 2023 Devotional Message

Today’s Topic: Declare Victory

Today’s Scripture: “All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the LORD saves; for the battle is the LORD’s, and he will give all of you into our hands.” – 1 Samuel 17:47, NIV

Today’s Word – Joel Osteen

When David went out to face Goliath, before he slung that rock, he got his sword out. Not a physical sword, but the sword of the Spirit, the Word of God. He looked at Goliath and said, “This day I will prove to everyone here that the battle is the Lord, that the victory is not by sword or spear.” He declared victory. He declared God’s favor.

He could have said, “God, why is this giant in my path? He’s twice my size. I don’t have the training in warfare. This is not a fair fight.” If David would have talked like that, you wouldn’t be reading about him today. David knew how to swing his sword. Before he slung that rock, he had already defeated Goliath.

Here’s the point: If you swing your sword, God will direct the rock. If you declare victory, He’ll bring down the giants. Every day you need to declare victory over what opposes you, declare your purpose and destiny. Don’t be passive. God has the favor, the healing, the abundance.

A Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that no matter what I face, no matter how big it looks, that the battle belongs to You and not to me. Help me use my words to declare victory. I believe that as I speak words of faith out loud that I will see You release Your promises in my life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
