That's my thing - keep filled with faith. Keep doing what you can do and I believe God will do what you can't do.
Joel Osteen

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.

Just because we're in a STRESSFUL situation doesn't mean that we have to get stressed out. You may be in the storm. The key is, don't let the storm get in YOU.

If it’s not meeting a need, turn it into a seed. Remember, we will reap what we sow. When you do good for other people, that’s when God is going to make sure that His abundant blessings overtake you.

I would rather believe for something great and receive half of it, than to believe for nothing and receive all of it!
Joel Osteen
Image
You may have made a lot of wrong choices, but you’ve also made a lot of choices that were right. Focus on your good qualities. Focus on your victories. Get off the treadmill of guilt.

I don't really know what the prosperity gospel is. The way I define it is that I believe God wants you to prosper in your health, in your family, in your relationships, in your business, and in your career. So I do ... if that is the prosperity gospel, then I do believe that.

Sometimes when you take strong stands, if you're not called to do it, you're dividing the audience you're trying to reach.

It’s vital that you accept yourself and learn to be happy with who God made you to be. If you want to truly enjoy your life, you must be at peace with yourself.
Joel Osteen
Image
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.

Don’t just look for your miracle. Become someone else's miracle.

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.

My parents were the same in the pulpit as they were at home. I think that's where a lot of preachers' kids get off base sometimes. Because they don't see the same things at both places.
