Today's Word From Joel Osteen

[rlm-1966]

He Will Fill You

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE

"'…My people will be filled with My bounty,' declares the LORD"

(Jeremiah 31:14, NIV)

TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria

When I think of being filled, I think of being satisfied. I think of having more than enough to meet my needs so that I can be a blessing to others. But it all starts with our level of expectancy. My question for you today is what are you believing for? What are you expecting? You might say, "Well, Joel. I don't think I'll ever meet my sales goals this year with the economy like it is." Or, "I don't think I'll ever get promoted. I'm not that qualified." "I don't think I'll ever get well." The problem is you're not looking for those good breaks. You're not expecting increase. You're not positioning yourself for God to fill you, and unfortunately, you won't be disappointed. Jesus said in the scriptures, "According to your faith it will be done unto you." He might as well have said, "If you've got a cup, I'll fill you with a cup level of blessing. If you've got a bucket, I'll fill you with a bucket level of blessing." But if you'll take the limits off of God and believe for supernatural opportunities, if you'll go out each day expecting far and beyond favor, you won't be disappointed. He will fill you and satisfy you with His goodness and show His favor in ways beyond your wildest dreams!

Father, the first thing I thought of when I read this was when the lady and her sons were told to gather and borrow as many pots as they could and then close the door, and how the oil stopped as soon as the last pot was filled. Their blessing was in relationship to their expectations. Lord, sometimes we forget that we serve a great big God, more than capable of fullfilling all our needs and then some. Help us to expand our faith and our vision of You. I think Father that sometimes we get so self centered that we forget that we are also to be used as a blessing to others, that many times we are blessed far beyond our needs so that we can reach out to others. Lord, help us to draw ever nearer to You, receive gladly from Your bounty and then to pass those blessings on to those You have placed before us. Bless the person that placed this post and those who read and believe it. I thank You for the power of prayer and the power of faith. In Jesus' name, Amen.
