Theme For Joel Osteen Devotional 23rd February – You Are Pleasing To God!
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart…”
Jeremiah 1:5, NIV
TODAY’S WORD:
You are approved by Almighty God! You are created in His image, and you’re the apple of His eye. You did not choose God, but He chose you, and He is pleased with you—His most precious creation. Notice that verse doesn’t say that God approves you as long as you don’t have any faults, or as long as you don’t make any mistakes. No, God approves you unconditionally. No matter how many weaknesses you may think you have today, no matter how many times you fall in your walk with God, you’ve got to get right back up again and hold your head up high. Don’t allow the enemy to bring strife into your life by deceiving you into thinking that you are not “good enough” for the plan of God. Stand strong in your thoughts about yourself knowing that you have been chosen and approved by Almighty God.
PRAYER FOR TODAY:
God, remind me that no matter how many times I fail or fall short of Your expectations, You have already given me Your eternal “stamp of approval.” I was made in Your image. Help me to have a healthy, positive self image so I can face the world with confidence In Jesus’ name – Amen.
