Today’s Joel Osteen Inspirational Message 26 November 2025
Topic: Who Says You’re Limited?
Scripture: So as David stood there among his brothers, Samuel took the flask of olive oil he had brought and anointed David with the oil. And the Spirit of the LORD came powerfully upon David from that day on. – 1 Samuel 16:13, NLT
David was a teenager working in the fields, taking care of his father’s sheep. It was just another ordinary day. He was doing the right thing, being faithful to do his menial job, when he heard his father calling him to the house. He thought, “Why’s he calling me? It’s the middle of the day.” He arrived home and was surprised that all of his brothers were there. Even more surprising, the prophet Samuel, who was a deeply respected and influential man in Israel, was waiting for him. This was a big deal. While they were all watching, Samuel pointed to David and said, “He is the next king of Israel.” David had never met Samuel, never turned in a résumé, never set up an interview, yet this respected prophet showed up and anointed him as the next king.
Do you think you’re limited by where you are today? God has ordained people whom you don’t even know to open doors and take you to levels higher than you’ve imagined. You are going to say, “Who would have ever thought I could end up here?”
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You that You know where the good breaks are, the right connections, the opportunities that will take me to the next level. Thank You that when I keep doing the right thing and am faithful, You bring me everything I need. I believe that my Samuels are on the way. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
TODAY’S INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE: The Scripture says, “We are transformed by the renewing of our mind.” You want to see transformation, you have to get your thoughts going in the right direction. As long as you’re thinking ordinary, not good enough, always be addicted, problem too big, then it’s going to be true. You’re going to become what you believe. Peter would have been stuck if Jesus had not shown up and told him who he really was. We wouldn’t know Peter if Jesus had not spoken faith into his destiny, told him, “You’re a rock.
A leader. You have greatness in you.” I believe God sent me today to help call out your king, to remind you who you really are. Not ordinary. Not average. You’re a masterpiece. You’ve been made in the image of God. He’s equipped you with everything you need. You are gifted. You are talented, disciplined, focused, strong, well able. Now do your part and start ruling over the doubt, the compromise, the not-good-enough thoughts. Let the king come out. Get in agreement with who God says you are.
