- 193The Danger of Dry PlacesIn this message, Joel offers hope and practical advice to those who feel like they are experiencing a dry place in life. We all have seasons when we experience heartache and loss, when we feel like we are just going through the motions of life. The key is not to allow those times to become permanent. If you are in a wilderness, make the decision to worship God when you don’t feel like it, to fix your eyes on His promises. In dry seasons, it can be easy to stay in self-pity, to get stuck in a negative mentality, but you don’t have to let the dryness get in you. Outwardly, you can be experiencing a drought, but inwardly you can tap into the endless supply that God has for you. Get your hopes up and begin to expect that rain is coming and the drought is ending.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
- 194Unity In The Body Of ChristIn this message, Victoria will teach there is a commanded blessing when we have unity. The Bible says when believers dwell together in unity, “there the LORD commanded the blessing—life forevermore” (Psalm 133:3). We need to fight together for our faith, not fight with one another about our faith! It is only the love of God that brings people to the arms and saving power of Jesus Christ.God is saying it’s up to us to keep in unity and the bond of peace. That tells me that you and I must watch our words and attitudes and walk worthy of our calling under the blood of Jesus and stand humbly in God’s righteousness, not our own “rightness.” We can break the power of darkness and show people the irresistible love of the Father!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
- 195Say SoIn this message, Joel will remind you of the power of your confession. Psalm 107:2 says, “Let the redeemed of the Lord say so.” It doesn’t say let the redeemed think so, believe so or hope so. You’ve got to take it one step further and say so.----Visit https://joelosteen.com to receive daily updates and encouragement from Joel Osteen.----Have you followed Joel Osteen on Instagram? https://instagram.com/joelosteen.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
- 196Pruned for PromotionIn this message, Joel reminds us that just as seasons of growth are necessary in our lives, so are seasons of pruning. Unless we go through the process of pruning, we will never reach the fullness of who God created us to be. During these times, we can remain at peace because Jesus told us that pruning is part of the process. God is still in control. It is often in the time of being cut back that we learn what it truly means to walk in faith and abide in God. How we react when God is refining us determines the quality of the fruit that will be produced in our lives. Keep being faithful and trusting God where you are—He is working behind the scenes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
- 197Break Through The Barriers of the PastIn this message, Victoria will explain when you’re in emotional pain, it’s easy to shrink back in fear and allow an emotional limp to become a stronghold in your mind—a wrong way of thinking. The last thing you want to do is to step out in boldness or put yourself in a position where you can get hurt again. But you can’t allow a painful experience to trick you into thinking you’re going to have a painful life. If you find yourself shrinking back because you’re afraid you’ll be hurt again, you have to understand that God can heal what hurts! He is the mender of broken hearts.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
- 198Stay in PeaceIn this message, Joel will teach you how to avoid letting your outside circumstances influence your inner peace and joy. Hebrews 4:3 says, “Those who have believed enter in to rest.”----Visit https://joelosteen.com to receive daily updates and encouragement from Joel Osteen.----Have you followed Joel Osteen on Instagram? https://instagram.com/joelosteen.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
- 199Serve Your Way UpIn this message, Joel encourages us that the path to our purpose is found through serving, not through self-promotion. In the Bible, we read that David, who eventually became King of Israel, started in the shepherd’s fields serving his father. He was faithful in the fields for years before he ever saw promotion. When his time for promotion came, God met David in his place of faithfulness. The same is true for us today. God has things to teach us as we serve others in the “shepherd’s field” that are necessary for our destiny. Don’t discount the power of being faithful, of serving. Keep being your best where you are, knowing that you are sowing seeds into your future.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
- 200Stand Firm In Your "Yes" To GodIn this message, Victoria will encourage you to say yes to God. Second Corinthians 1:20 says, “For as many as are the promises of God, in Christ they are [all answered] ‘Yes.’ So through Him we say our ‘Amen’ to the glory of God.” What is it that you need to say yes to today? Is it, “Yes, God, I’m going to forgive those people who hurt me”? Is it, “Yes, I’m going to believe that You can bring good out of this difficult time and show me Your favor”? Maybe it’s, “Yes, God, I’m going to reach out to those people whom You’re asking me to reach out to even though I don’t feel like I have time”? What does your yes look like?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

- 203Created To Do Good WorksIn this message, Victoria will teach on what are good works through Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2 says, "we are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus to do good works." We are God's handiwork. He is making us. He is molding us. God has created us to do good works. God is working through us in our good works. What is a good work? When we're patient. When we choose joy. When we choose peace. When we're serving others. Within those good works God is working something in us.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

- 206The Power of EncouragementIn this message, Victoria will inspire you. God wants us to show up strong with encouragement for other people. The Scripture says, “But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called ‘Today,’ so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness” (Hebrews 3:13). To encourage means “to impart courage, to make fearless, to make brave.” God is saying that if we stand together like the defensive line on a football team, we will stand victoriously against the enemy’s deceit and discouragement. Encourage your family, encourage your children, encourage your coworkers, encourage your boss, encourage your pastor. Ask God to give you someone today to encourage in a meaningful and profound way. Let’s push back the darkness with encouragement every day!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
- 207Doing Business in Deep WatersIn this message, Joel will explain that whenever you do something great for God or "do business in deep waters" you will face attacks.

- 212Creating a Winning Atmosphere for Your FamilyIn this message, Victoria will show how to have a winning attitude with our family members. The Scripture says, “Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds” (Hebrews 10:24). If we’re going to create the life that we want to live with our family, we have to keep the tone of a winner. We’re going to celebrate in the good times, and we’re going to keep that winning spirit in the difficult times. I believe that if we will maintain that consistent tone, we’re going to have a great life not only for ourselves but for our families!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

- 214A Public DisplayGod sometimes works behind the scenes in our lives, but there are other times when the work that He does is a public display of His goodness.

Like a seed finally springing up from the soil, you are coming into a time where people are going to see what God has been doing in your life.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
- 215God Sees You As Valuable and SignificantRemember, you “are God’s masterpiece” (Ephesians 2:10). You are a masterpiece in His eyes! He’s already qualified you, and He’s left nothing out of you. Keep His voice clear and free from the debris of life. Spend your life well and make it count.
