Joel Osteen Devotional December 3 2021 – He Knows What You Need

Exodus 4:10, MSG

Master, please, I don’t talk well. I’ve never been good with words, neither before nor after you spoke to me. I stutter and stammer.

When God told Moses to go tell Pharaoh to let the people of Israel go, Moses was insecure and didn’t feel qualified. However, God showed Moses miraculous signs so that he would go into the courts of Pharaoh with confidence, knowing that God was with him. But Moses had another concern. He said, “God, I can’t stand before Pharaoh because I have a speech problem.” You would have thought, since God just did all those miracles, He would simply touch Moses’ speech and take away the stuttering. But God didn’t remove that problem. God was saying to Moses, “You have exactly what you need to do what I’ve called you to do. If I needed to remove it for you to fulfill your destiny, I would have removed it.”

Are you waiting for God to remove a weakness before you can be happy, pursue a dream, finish school, or be good to somebody? Don’t hold back. You have what you need.

Father, thank You for the limitations and the weaknesses that I still feel sometimes. Thank You for the reminders to ask for Your help and to thank You for all that You’ve done already. I believe and declare that You have given me all I need for now, and You’ll give me more as I need it. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
