Joel Osteen - Sermon: The Secret to Solving Problems. Sometimes the key to your breakthrough lies in helping someone else reach theirs. When you bless others, God will make sure to bless you. I want to talk to you today about the secret to solving problems. We all face challenges; things we're believing will turn around. A child that's off course. A sickness we're dealing with. A dream that seems impossible. We've been praying, believing but nothing is changing. Sometimes, God won't allow you to solve your own problem. The secret is you have to help someone else solve their problem. You have to take the focus off yourself and be good to others in your time of need. As you sow that seed, that's what's going to bring the harvest that you're waiting for.

John Hagee ) Sermon: Solving Your Problem. Pastor John Hagee wants to remind us that nothing works in your life until you do. How you react in the problem you’re facing will determine how long you stay there. What is your attitude like? Are you asking God to help you face the giants and marching through to the Promised Land in your own life? Or are you pouting and asking God why He isn’t doing more for you, while you’re sit on the couch and whining about life’s challenges? If you want to realize your life’s dreams and goals…it’s time to read the Word, soak up God’s love and move forward down the path of HIS choosing. To receive God’s promise you have to be willing to let go of the problem and move forward toward total freedom through Christ Jesus. You will never achieve your highest destiny without following God’s plan for your life.

Joyce Meyer (November-06-2023) Daily Devotional: What’s the Problem?

“What is your problem?” That’s the question I would have liked to ask the Israelites! Their chief occupation seemed to be to grumble. As the verses above tell us, they not only lamented and groaned about their situation, but they also accused Moses of bringing them into the wilderness so they could die. In other scripture passages, we read that they complained about the food. God provided manna for them, and all they had to do was pick it up fresh every morning—but they didn’t like the heavenly diet.

In short, it wouldn’t have mattered what God did for them or what Moses and Aaron told them. They were committed to complaining. They had formed the grumbling habit. And much of it is a habit! If you grumble about one thing, it’s not long before there is something else to complain about.

When two moaners come together, the situation gets worse. What about the million or more people who came out of Egypt? Once the disease of disgruntlement struck, it became like a virus and infected them all. They were negative about everything. When the slightest problem arose, they were ready to return to Egypt. They preferred bondage as slaves rather than pressing on into the Promised Land.

One time Moses sent twelve spies into the land, and they came back and reported what wonderful, fertile land they had seen. (Read the story in Numbers 13 and 14.) The complainers joined with 10 of the spies (again, all but Joshua and Caleb). “Yes, it’s a great place,“ they agreed. But grumblers never stop with positive statements. They added, But the people who dwell there are strong…and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers… Numbers (13:28, 33 AMPC).

Had they forgotten all the miracles God had done for them? Yes, they had. That’s where Satan trips up many people. They whine—and often it’s about a small thing. They find fault with something. If they don’t realize what they’re doing by allowing such thinking to continue, they don’t need to ask, “What is the problem?” What they need to learn to say is, “I don’t have a problem; I am the problem.”

That was exactly the situation in Moses’ day. The enemy in Canaan wasn’t any worse, bigger, or more powerful than what the people constantly faced. But what if their problems really were more serious? If God could destroy the Egyptians at the Red Sea, why wouldn’t He give them another miracle? They were His people, and He loved them.

They themselves were the problem, and they never accepted that fact. Forty years of wandering, and they never got the message. How dense could they be? I’ve wondered many times. Of course, it’s easy to say that—because I wasn’t there, and I can see the situation with hindsight. It’s harder to examine our own lives and see why we gripe and moan.

“But my situation is different,” people often say to me.

That’s true, but the spirit in which you operate is the same as those in ancient Israel. You’re so caught up in grumbling, complaining, and seeing what’s wrong that you have no energy or time to appreciate what’s good.

“What is good about your life?” I once challenged a woman who complained about almost everything.

She stared at me and realized I was serious. “Well, I have a good husband. I have two children whom I love, and they love me.”

I smiled and said, “Go on.”

She caught on, and her face lost its down-at-the-mouth look. Although she didn’t say it in those words, she admitted, “I guess I don’t have a problem. I’ve been the problem.”

Exactly!

Prayer of the Day: Spirit of God, please forgive me for seeing others or my surroundings or the situation I’m in as the problem. I’ve been unhappy because I haven’t faced that I am my biggest hindrance to deliverance and victory. Forgive me and set me free, I pray in the name of Jesus, amen.

Stephanie Ike - Watch Sermon: Is It a Faith Problem?

Joel Osteen - Sermon: Focus On the Promise, Not The Problem. We all face challenges, but the size of the problem is not important. It’s our perception of the problem. It’s how big or small we make it in our minds. David said in Psalm 34:3, “Magnify the Lord with me.” Instead of worrying, let Joel remind you in this faith-building message to use your energy to believe! Develop an unshakeable faith and magnify God. Instead of magnifying what you’re facing, magnify what’s right and focus on His promises. No matter how large an obstacle may be, God is much bigger than anything we may face!
