More quotes by Joel Osteen
I really believed that fear is contagious.
Joel Osteen
Psalm 34 says, 'Those who trust in the Lord will never lack any good thing.' This means if you don't have it right now, you don't need it right now. Our attitude should be, 'I'm equipped, empowered and anointed for this moment. I am not lacking, shortchanged or inadequate. I have what I need for today.'
Joel Osteen
Stones of judgment, discouragement or doubt may be thrown at you. You can't stop them, but you can make the choice to keep your walls up and not let them affect you.
Joel Osteen
What others say and do cannot stop you from fulfilling your destiny. Your destiny was handed down by Almighty God.
Joel Osteen
People have the right to their opinion and you have the right to ignore it.
Joel Osteen
You must make a decision that you are going to move on. It wont happen automatically. You will have to rise up and say, ‘I don’t care how hard this is, I don’t care how disappointed I am, I’m not going to let this get the best of me. I’m moving on with my life.
Joel Osteen
That's what I feel like I'm called to do - to plant a seed of hope in people's hearts.
Joel Osteen
When things are difficult, smile by faith. Don't wait until you feel better.
Joel Osteen
Understand that the enemy always fights the hardest when he knows you are closest to your breakthrough. He'd leave you alone if he thought you were going to live in mediocrity. If you keep pressing on toward your promise, through faith and patience, you will get there.
Joel Osteen
So many people talk about themselves: I'm unattractive, my mind's so slow, and I can't do this. And you know what I tell them? God didn't make a mistake when He made you. You need to see yourself as God sees you.
Joel Osteen
Salvation and Christ's love is a gift. You don't earn it. You've got to receive that gift. I think one of the most important things is starting off the day forgiving others and forgiving yourself. You learn from your mistakes, but I don't think you have to drag them back into today.
Joel Osteen
Being successful doesn’t necessarily make you great. What makes you great is when you reach back and help somebody else become great.
Joel Osteen
Ask God to give you the strength to endure, and rest assured, He will take care of you.
Joel Osteen
It is your choice to be happy. Make up your mind to enjoy this day, to have a blessed, prosperous, victorious year. You may have some setbacks and your circumstances may change, but don't let that change your mind. Keep it set on happiness.
Joel Osteen
I like to start my day off every morning, take the first half hour and just search my own heart, see if I'm on the right course, try to be honest with myself - am I doing this for the right reasons?
Joel Osteen
When I took over from my father, he came from the Southern Baptist background, and back 40-50 years ago, there was a lot more of that.I don't believe - maybe it was for a time. But I don't have it in my heart to condemn people. I'm there to encourage them.
Joel Osteen
There's probably a balance between. I believe you have to know Christ. But I think that if you know Christ, if you're a believer in God, you're going to have some good works.
Joel Osteen
We all have unfair situations and things we don't like. You can get bitter, discouraged and sour, or you can see it as fertilizer and say, “ This difficulty is not going to defeat me it's going to promote me. It's not going to hinder me it's going to help me.” Don't just go through it, grow through it.
Joel Osteen
When the negative thoughts come - and they will they come to all of us - it's not enough to just not dwell on it... You've got to replace it with a positive thought.
Joel Osteen
I try to look on all the great things God's done, and not focus on the negative. It's a perspective.
