More quotes by Joel Osteen

Image
If you’re controlled by your circumstances, life is going to be a roller coaster with ups and downs. God wants you to be stable, consistent, not moved by any of these things. When you face an adversity, when you hit a tough time, one of the best things you can do is simply stay calm. Keep your peace.

Make the decision and say, I'm not letting that worry in. I'm done being upset when my plans don't work out. I'm not letting that stress in. Negative thoughts will still come to your mind, but you don't have to let them into your spirit.

You can’t talk mediocrity and expect to have victory. You are prophesying your future. If you want a shift to occur, you’ve got to think positive.

Image
I don't have it in my heart to condemn people. I'm here to encourage them. I see myself more as a coach, as a motivator to help them experience the life God has for us.

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.

You can't talk defeat and expect to have victory. You can't talk lack and expect to have abundance. You've got to send your words out in the direction you want your life to go.

Nobody owes me anything. I am not at a disadvantage. I am equipped, empowered, and anointed.

Image
We can all control our own destiny. And I think sometimes it's a copout to say, Well, it's this person's fault or another person's fault.
Joel Osteen
Image
We minister the Word of God. The proclamation of the Gospel comes after individuals have opened their hearts to God and turned from themselves to others. Only then are they truly ready to hear and benefit fully from the Word of the Lord.

Image
When you get up and say, God, I want to thank you for being alive, I've got family, I've got my health, you're going to draw in more of the good things from God.

People respond when you tell them there is a great future in front of you, you can leave your past behind.

Image
You may be sitting around waiting for God to change your circumstances. Then you’re going to be happy, then your’re going to have a good attitude, then you’re going to give God praise. But God is waiting on you to get up on the inside. When you do your part, He’ll begin to change things and work supernaturally in your life.

I see people - they won't be negative toward other people, but inside they're negative toward themselves, and I think that holds us back.

Sometimes what works 40 years ago doesn't work today.

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.

Friend, there's no greater investment in life than in being a people builder. Relationships are more important than our accomplishments.

No matter how many times you get knocked down, keep getting back up. God sees your resolve. He sees your determination. And when you do everything you can do, that’s when God will step in and do what you can’t do.

See, when you drive home today, you've got a big windshield on the front of your car. And you've got a little bitty rearview mirror. And the reason the windshield is so large and the rearview mirror is so small is because what's happened in your past is not near as important as what's in your future.
