Quotes from Joel Osteen

It is the Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom." God is longing to be good to you.

God is faithful. Don't let a lack of evidence convince you that nothing is happening. In the unseen realm, things are changing in your favor. Forces that have stopped you in the past have been broken.

The difficulties you face are not there to defeat you. They are there to increase you. Just

There's nothing you can do to change the fact that you're a son. When you gave your life to Christ, you were born into the family of God. You can't get unborn. You can't make a mistake that's too big. You can't get too far off course. You may disqualify yourself, but God never disqualifies you.

Everything that happens in life—the difficulties, the delays, the things that are not fair—they're not random. God is giving you the opportunity to grow, to come up higher. He's getting you prepared to handle the weight of favor, the weight of influence.

You're not going to qualify as a son when you perform well enough.

It's great to have faith for yourself, to believe for your dreams. But God didn't give you faith just for you. Encourage someone that's down, speak hope into their spirit. You can be the one that steps up and believes for a friend.

Let God fight your battles. Let God be your vindicator. You're not supposed to engage in every conflict. Don't fight battles that are not between you and your destiny.

God wants to do big things in your life, as well. Don't settle for a small view of God. We serve the God that created the universe.

Your challenge is to live in such a way as to cause others to win.

Dwelling on defeats, failures, and unfair situations will keep you stuck.

Get rid of that small-minded thinking and start thinking as God thinks. Think big. Think increase. Think abundance. Think more than enough.
