If you can see the invisible, God will do the impossible. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
But when you say, "I am beautiful," not only does beauty, youth, and freshness start coming your way, but on the inside your spirit also comes alive. Your self-image begins to improve, and you'll start carrying yourself like you're someone special. You won't drag through the day feeling less than or inferior. You'll have that spring in your step, that "You go, girl!" attitude. Beauty is not in how thin or tall you are, how perfect you look. Beauty is in being who God made you to be with confidence. If you're a size 4, great. If you're a size 24, great. Take what you have and make the most of it. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
It's our faith that activates the power of God. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I've never preached one sermon on money, on just finances. I want to stay away from it. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I purposely don't talk about money, because people are already skeptical about TV preachers. But I do say that I want you to be blessed. To me, prosperity is having health, having great children, having peace, good relationships. It's not about the money. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen

Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
That's why I can tell you with confidence that you are coming into greater victories. Enlarge your vision. Take the limits off God. You have not seen your best days. God has victories in your future that will amaze you. He will show up and show out in unusual ways. You may be in a tough time right now, but remember this: The enemy always fights you the hardest when he knows God has something great in store for you. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
The Scripture says that God wants to pour out "His far and beyond favor."1 God wants this to be the best time of your life. But if you are going to receive this favor, you must enlarge your vision. You can't ~ Joel Osteen

Joel Osteen quotes by 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
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
If your thinking is limited, your life will be limited. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
When I hear Mitt Romney say that he believes that Jesus is the Son of God, that He's the Christ, raised from the dead, that He's his savior - that's good enough for me. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I'm not going to complain, ~ Joel Osteen

Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
The Seventh Year In Deuteronomy 15, there was a law God gave the people of Israel that said every seventh year they had to release any Hebrew slaves. If you were Hebrew and owed another person money that you couldn't repay, they could take you in as a slave and make you work full-time until you paid them back. But every seventh year, if you were a part of God's chosen people, you had a special advantage. You got released. No matter ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
God wants to bless us where we are. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I'm not trying to follow a set of rules and stuff. I'm just living my life. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
MARCH 1 Envision Your Dreams I counsel you to buy from me ... salve to put on your eyes, so you can see. REVELATION 3:18 DO YOU LOOK UPON your life with eyes of faith? Think of it this way: when we close our eyes, we should see more than we do when we have our eyes open. See your whole family serving God. See yourself rising to new levels of effectiveness. See yourself stronger, healthier, and living a more abundant life. See God using you in ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
The LORD directs our steps, so why try to understand everything along the way? PROVERBS 20:24 NLT ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
We walk by faith and not by sight. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
Faith doesn't always instantly deliver you, but it always carries you through. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
It's God's will for you to live in prosperity instead of poverty. It's God's will for you to pay your bills and not be in debt. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
God knows how to bring justice in your life. It may not happen overnight, but it will happen.
We all go through situations in which we are treated unfairly. Maybe somebody is gossiping about you, or picking on you, trying to make you look bad at school or work. The natural response is to defend yourself or strike back. Human nature wants to get revenge. We like to get even. But the Lord says, "Vengeance is Mine" (Deuteronomy 32:35 NKJV). That means God will make your wrongs right. God wants to repay you for every unfairness. He is a God of justice.
The bottom line is this: God wants you to have the last laugh.
Here's how it can happen. Romans 12:19 says to never avenge yourselves, but to let God do it. Notice, you can avenge yourself, or you can let God be your avenger; but you cannot have it both ways.
If you take matters into your own hands, God will step back and say, "You go ahead. You don't need My help." But if you learn to stay on the high road, control your emotions, and let God be your avenger, He will show up and say, "All right. Let Me go to work. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
Don't complain about the problem. It's not random. You're going to need that victory in the future. God is taking you from glory to glory. When you come through this challenge, that victory will be the fuel you use that gets you to the next level of glory. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
Do all you can to make your dreams come true. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
If you truly want to become a better you, it is imperative that you learn to feel good about yourself. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
So many people are looking at what's wrong, and I try to encourage them to look at what's right in their life. A lot of people have it a lot worse than you do. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
That's it. I'm going to start making the right choices. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
You're not being responsible with what God gave you if you're hanging out with time wasters who have no goals and no dreams. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
J.J. Moses was a star football player in college. He was drafted by the Houston Texans and played for them for six years. He was the kick returner and punt returner. He was as fast as lightning! When he had the ball, he electrified fans, darting here and there. He was amazing to watch.
Playing in the National Football League in front of millions of fans, J.J. was at the pinnacle of success. But during the off seasons--and any time he didn't have a game--do you know where J.J. was every Saturday night?
J.J. was not at home with his feet up. He was not out enjoying his celebrity. He was at our church in Houston, serving others as an usher, helping people to their seats, showing visitors around, passing the offering plates, and making everyone feel welcome.
Many of those who came to church didn't know he was a star football player. In the stadium all the lights were on him. Fans wanted his autograph or pictures with him. J.J. could have allowed his fame to go to his head and thought, "I'm big-time, I'm not serving as an usher. I'm not waiting on people--I want them to wait on me."
Instead, J.J. told me, "My greatest honor was not playing in front of eighty thousand people in the stadium each week. My greatest honor was ushering in my section at Lakewood every Saturday night."
J.J. offers testimony to the fact that you are never too big to serve, never too important, never too influential. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
God wants us to prosper financially, to have plenty of money, to fulfill the destiny He has laid out for us. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
You don't know what's on the inside until you put a demand on your potential. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
The older I get, the better I understand that every day is a gift. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
God is in complete control. He knows the end from the beginning. God knows what you will need a week from now, a month from now, even ten years from now. And the good news is He's already taking care of you. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
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 quotes by Joel Osteen
If you can see it, then I can do it. If you have a vision for it, then I can make a way. I can open up new doors. I can bring the right people. I can give you the finances. I can break the chains holding you back. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I don't go down the road of condemning. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
Explosive blessings are coming my way. This is my declaration. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
God is directing every one of your steps. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
A grateful heart is like a sponge that soaks up God's goodness. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
God can make your enemies your footstool. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
If they left you, you didn't need them. If they walked away, they weren't part of your DESTINY. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
The bigger your obstacle, the bigger your future. Don't get discouraged, keep moving forward. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
Don't do anything that you wouldn't feel comfortable reading about in the newspaper the next day. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
There will always be people who try to squeeze you into their molds and pressure you into being who they want you to be. They may be good people. They may mean well, but the problem is they didn't breathe life into you. They didn't equip you or empower you. God did.
If you're going to become the winner you were created to be, you need to have a boldness. The second quality of a winner is that you run your race the way you want to run it.
You can't be insecure and you can't worry about what everyone thinks. You can't try to keep everyone happy. If you change with every criticism and play up to people, trying to win their favor, you'll go through life letting people manipulate you and pressure you into their boxes.
You have to accept the fact that you can't keep everyone happy. You can't make everyone like you. You will never win over every critic. Even if you changed and did everything they asked, some would still find fault. You're not really free until you're free from trying to please everyone. You're respectful, you're kind, but you're not living to please people, you're living to please God. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
Too often we talk ourselves out of God's best. We allow doubts, fears, and discouraging things people have said to limit us and convince us to settle where we are. Negative voices always speak the loudest. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
If you hold on to what you want so tightly, it almost becomes an idol. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I write all my sermons. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
For a while ... to be an evangelical meant you were a white Republican, and you were against this and against that. I don't want to be put into that mold, because then people judge you before they even listen ... I don't want to divide the very people I am trying to reach. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
If you want a great life, it doesn't just come from success, having a bigger house, or more accomplishments. There's nothing wrong with those things. God wants you to be blessed. But if you want to truly be fulfilled, you have to develop the habit of serving others.
You were created to give. You were created to make the lives of others better. Someone needs what you have. Someone needs your love. Someone needs your smile. Someone needs your encouragement and your gifts.
When you serve others, there will be a satisfaction that money can't buy. You'll feel a peace, a joy, a strength, and a fulfillment that only God can give. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
The bitterness, the sin you retain, can produce the same results that hurt you. If you were raised in an abusive environment, if you come from a family filled with anger and dysfunction, instead of becoming bitter and angry, why don't you be the one to put an end to the negative cycle?
You can be the one to make a difference. Are you holding on to anger and unforgiveness and passing poison down to the next generation? Or are you willing to let it go so your family can rise to a new level?
I realize it can be very hard to forgive, especially when someone has hurt you, but God will never ask you to do something without giving you the ability to do it.
Forgiveness is a process. It doesn't happen overnight. You don't snap your fingers and make a hurt go away. That's not realistic. But if you'll continue to have the desire to forgive and ask God to help you, then little by little those negative feelings will fade. One day they won't affect you at all. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
God made us for more than just barely getting by. We weren't meant to sit on the sidelines of life because with God, we are on the winning team! ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I'm not a big believer in trying to jam stuff down somebody's throat: 'You're going to do it my way.' I'd rather show by example and live my life and have people say, 'You know what, I want to live like Joel has. He's got peace and joy, and he seems content.' ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
You have excellence on the inside. It's who you are. Now do your part. Bring out your excellence! ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
You can live your life angry, bitter, mad at somebody or even guilty, not letting go of your own mistakes, but you won't receive the good things God has in store. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I encourage people in a lot of my messages that you've got to make the most of every day. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I think the word rich is all relative. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
Whatever you are going through- don't give up. It has been my experience that the biggest breakthroughs are usually preceded by the darkest times. If you quit- you will never know whats on the other side of the coin. But if you have the tenacity and fortitude to endure, you will eventually overcome. Remember, even tough times dont last forever. Eventually something has to give ; it will either be you or the obstacle. Choose to persist and eventually the obstacle will start to crack. However, during these difficult times, never miss reading for 15 minutes a day. Thats where your strength will come from. As evangelist Joel Osteen says "The darkest hour is just before dawn ~ Andy Holligan
Joel Osteen quotes by Andy Holligan
Every time you resist temptation you are winning for your children. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
The Bible indicates that for three days, Jesus went into the very depths of hell. Right into the enemy's own territory. And He did battle with Satan face to face. Can you imagine what a show down that was? It was good vs. evil. Right vs. wrong. Holiness vs. filth. Here are the two most powerful forces in the universe have come together to do battle for the first time in history. But thank God. The Bible says, "Satan was no match for our Champion". This was no contest. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
Stay in peace. When ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
Don't just accept whatever comes your way in life. You were born to win; you were born for greatness; you were created to be a champion in life. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
When I used to play sports, I'd be the one cheering the team on, 'Come on, we can beat these guys!' That's just in me. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
If you feel "stuck" today, you may want to examine what you're holding on to. Be willing let go of past disappointments by choosing forgiveness. Who hurt you? Who wronged you? Release it to God. Do you need to forgive yourself? Do you need to receive God's forgiveness? Let go of the past so you can overcome disappointments and experience the bright future God has in store for you! There is freedom in forgetting! ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I heard about this man who fell into a pit, and while he was down there several people came by and offered their opinions. The Pharisee said, "You deserve to be in the pit." The Catholic said, "You need to suffer while you're in the pit." The Baptist said, "If you'd been saved, you wouldn't have fallen into the pit." The charismatic said, "Just confess I'm not in the pit." The mathematician said, "Let me calculate how you fell into the pit." The IRS agent said, "Have you paid taxes on that pit?" The optimist said, "Things could be worse." The pessimist said, "Things will get worse. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen

You have a destiny to fulfill, something greater than you've ever even imagined. But if you're going to become all you were created to be, you've got to take off the "average" label. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
It seems like when I was growing up there was more compromise, wanting to work with each other, and I think all of them - all of the lawmakers - have hearts to do what's right, and they all are passionate about it. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
A lot of psychological principles and even medical principles, you see them coming around to what the Bible said hundreds of years ago: a merry heart is good like a medicine. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
God is faithful to His word. All of His promises are "Yes" and "Amen." That means if you will do your part and believe even though it looks impossible, and not let your mind, your emotions, or other people talk you out of it, then God promises in due season and at the right time He will bring it to pass. It may not happen the way you expect it or on your timetable, but God is a faithful God. It will happen. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen

Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I don't think you should spend your life praying for things, but I do believe you should thank God for what He's given you ... but I think the scripture teaches us that we can pray for our dreams, pray for the big things ... he's not a small God; this God is incredible. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
To live your best life now, you must start looking at life through eyes of faith, seeing yourself rising to new levels. See your business taking off. See your marriage restored. See your family prospering. See your dreams coming to pass. You must conceive it and believe it is possible if you ever hope to experience it. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
True success is when you reach back and bring somebody along with you. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
When thoughts tell you it's too late, dismiss them. You haven't dreamed your best dream. You haven't run your best race. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
I DECLARE that God has a great plan for my life. He is directing my steps. And even though I may not always understand how, I know my situation is not a surprise to God. He will work out every detail to my advantage. In His perfect timing, everything will turn out right. This is my declaration. ~ Joel Osteen

Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
Don't compare yourself. Celebrate yourself. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
It is a hard thing to let go of mistakes we've made and sins. God wants us to do that because He knows the guilt and the condemnation will keep us from becoming who He has created us to be. ~ Joel Osteen

A victor's mentality becomes a victor's reality. ~ Joel Osteen
Joel Osteen quotes by Joel Osteen
