Today’s Scripture says that God didn’t lead the Israelites on the easiest route to the Promised Land because they were not ready for war. He had to toughen them up so they would be prepared for what He had in store. Don’t get discouraged by troubles. Trouble is not going to defeat you; it’s going to prepare and promote you for the battles ahead.

You trust God when everything is good, so trust Him in the times of trouble. Believe that even though you don’t understand the bad break or disappointment, He’s still directing your steps. That trouble means you’re on the way to your destiny. If you’ll stay in faith, you’ll see there was a reason that door closed and a reason you didn’t get that promotion. God had something better in store. He’s already lined up the breaks you need, the vindication, the funds, and the healing. He was using that trouble to move you into your destiny.

Prayer for Today:

“Father, thank You for loving me so much that You take troubles that were meant for my harm and use them for my good. I trust You in trouble. I trust You when it’s not happening my way. I trust You even though I feel as though I’m going backward. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

About Joel Osteen

Raised in Houston, Texas, with a loving family of seven and world-renowned parents in full-time ministry, Joel Osteen never imagined that he would follow so closely in his father’s footsteps. As a young man, his training and interests were behind the scenes in television production, though he was close to his father in ministry.

His father always encouraged him to preach, but Joel would politely decline time and time again until one day in October 1999 when his father was admitted to the hospital with kidney complications. Joel finally agreed to preach the next Sunday, and his father passed the following week. Joel’s first sermon was the last his father ever heard. Joel and his wife, Victoria, were suddenly thrust into full-time leadership of Lakewood Church.
