When I grew up, the Devil was a reason why I had a headache or the Devil was the reason I got mad today. We always blamed the Devil. I think today when I say the Enemy, I like to make it broader. Sometimes the Enemy can be our own thoughts.
Joel Osteen

Joel Osteen
There are a lot of decisions we pass up on because we think, You know what? That's just going to build - you know, maybe that's going to build me and not build the ministry and what I'm trying to do. So we pass up on a lot of opportunities.
Joel Osteen
Forgiveness is a choice, but it is not an option.
Joel Osteen
Keep in mind, hurting people often hurt other people as a result of their own pain. If somebody is rude and inconsiderate, you can almost be certain that they have some unresolved issues inside. They have some major problems, anger, resentment, or some heartache they are trying to cope with or overcome.
Joel Osteen
Too often we judge people based on our own backgrounds and experiences, but when you understand people's stories, it's easier to understand their demeanor.
Joel Osteen
We are set in our ways, bound by our perspectives and stuck in our thinking.
Joel Osteen
We need to show mercy. I mean, because as much mercy as you show people, that's the mercy you're going to be receiving.
Joel Osteen
Sometimes you need faith and victory spoken over your life. Words have created power. When you receive them into your spirit, they can ignite seeds of increase on the inside.
Joel Osteen
You cannot expect to live a positive life if you hang with negative people.
Joel Osteen
At this very moment, God’s working behind the scenes in your life, arranging things in your favor. Stay in faith!
