More quotes by Joel Osteen
You are full of potential. You are overflowing with creativity. There's nothing in your heart that you cannot accomplish.
Joel Osteen
God wants you to have a good life, a life filled with love, joy, peace, and fulfillment. That doesn’t mean it will always be easy, but it does mean that it will always be good.
Joel Osteen
I'm for everybody. You may not agree with me, but to me it's not my job to try to straighten everybody out. The Gospel is called the good news. My message is a message of hope, that's God's [message] for you. You can live a good life no matter what's happened to you.
Joel Osteen
Men, learn to speak blessings over your wife and you will see that woman rise to a new level. She will respond to your praise and encouragement. Your words don't have to be poetic, fancy, or profound. Tell her simply but sincerely, You're a great mother to our children. And you are a great wife to me. I'm so glad I can always count on you.
Joel Osteen
Keep honoring God with your life, stay in peace, trust His timing and God will open doors that no man can shut.
Joel Osteen
When you center life around yourself, not only do you miss out on God's best, but you rob other people of the joy and blessings that God wants to give them through you.
Joel Osteen
God's got you in the palm of His hand. You won't leave one second before your time. If God wants you to be here, then you're going to be here.
Joel Osteen
When you get knocked down, don't stay down get back up again. Nothing good is going to happen as long as you're down on yourself.
Joel Osteen
I don't have to figure out how God is going to solve my problem. I don't have to understand how He's going to bring it to pass. That's His responsibility. My job is to simply believe that He will.
Joel Osteen
Be careful what you say. You can say something hurtful in ten seconds, but ten years later, the wounds are still there.
Joel Osteen
I mean we all need a second chance sometimes.
Joel Osteen
Every day we have plenty of opportunities to get angry, stressed or offended. But what you're doing when you indulge these negative emotions is giving something outside yourself power over your happiness. You can choose to not let little things upset you.
Joel Osteen
God has already done everything He's going to do. The ball is now in your court. If you want success, if you want wisdom, if you want to be prosperous and healthy, you're going to have to do more than meditate and believe you must boldly declare words of faith and victory over yourself and your family.
Joel Osteen
A small pot boils quick. You can tell much about the depth of one's character by how quickly he 'boils'.
Joel Osteen
Quit worrying about people that are trying to hold you back. God knows how to move the wrong people out of your life and bring the right people in. He knows how to prepare you to Break Out.
Joel Osteen
This is a day that God has given me. It's a gift. I can never relive this day. And I'm not going to live it angry, in unforgiveness, and mad at somebody. If I don't get my way, I'm going to believe that God's still in control.
Joel Osteen
If you want to be happy, you have to be happy on purpose. When you wake up, you can't just wait to see what kind of day you'll have. You have to decide what kind of day you'll have.
Joel Osteen
Change the way you speak about yourself and you can change your life.
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
I'm not for gay marriage, but I'm not for discriminating against people.
Joel Osteen
