TODAY'S WORD with Joel & Victoria Osteen: Nothing Wasted

 Joel Osteen Ministries | Today's Word

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
Who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion.
Psalm 103:4, NIV.

TODAY'S WORD:

I know people who feel like they've wasted years of their lives because of poor choices. They spent years in a relationship that was toxic, years with an addiction, years at a job where they weren't fulfilled. But you have to realize, nothing you have been through is ever wasted.

Your past experiences, good and bad, have deposited something on the inside of you. Those challenges have sharpened you to help make you who you are today. When the enemy brings hardship into your life, God has a way of taking that experience and turning it around for your advantage. You may think you've hit a dead end, but if you’ll stay in faith, you will see God begin to open up a new route. He’ll put the right people in your path, the right opportunities, the right circumstances to move you forward toward the blessing God has in store for you!

Today, don’t focus on what’s happened in your past, focus on what God will do in your future. He wants to restore your soul and revive your dreams. Keep believing, keep expecting, keep hoping because God has a new route for your future!

PRAYER FOR TODAY:

 Father, I come humbly before You today. I give You my past, present and future, knowing that You will redeem my life. I release those who have hurt me. I choose forgiveness so I can be free to move forward in the path You have for me in Jesus’ name. Amen.
