Today’s Joel Osteen Inspirational Message 9 December 2025
Topic: Silent Seasons
Scripture: Be still in the presence of the LORD, and wait patiently for him to act. Psalm 37:7, NLT
David spent years in the shepherds’ fields taking care of his father’s sheep. He was alone, seemingly stuck in obscurity, and it was boring. Even after he was anointed to be the next king of Israel, he went back to the sheep and kept doing the same thing he’d been doing. In that time of isolation, in that season of silence, he grew close to God. Maybe that’s where he learned to write some of the psalms that we read today. Instead of saying, “God, You put this big dream in my heart. Why is it taking so long?” he knew that God was getting him ready for what He had in store.
You may be in a silent season, but the silence doesn’t mean God has forgotten about you. He’s heard every prayer and seen every tear. At the right time He’s going to bring you into what He has already prepared. God is not preparing the blessing for you, He’s preparing you for the blessing. Keep passing the tests and you’re going to come into more than you can ask or think.
Prayer For Today
“Father, thank You that everything You have for me will be released in my life at the right time. Thank You that You are working behind the scenes and preparing me for whatever is next. Help me to be patient and know that You are always on schedule. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
Part of faith is trusting when life doesn’t make sense. You can’t stop at the hardship, you have to get back up. Quit reliving the hurts and lies, God knows how to make it up to you. You will see greater favor, because of the unjust things. The enemy meant it for harm, but God is going to turn it to your advantage.
We all go through seasons of struggle, where we have to endure, do the right thing when it’s hard. It can seem like the opposition is winning, that we’ll always be held back. We’ve done what we can on our own, but we’re not able to change. The good news is you’re not on your own. Jesus came to take off of you what the enemy put on you. He came to free you from what’s bound you, to loose you from what’s restricting you. Every negative thing that’s limiting you has no right to stay. You are God’s property.
