Joel Osteen (June-05-2023) Read Daily Devotional: He Reigns
Today’s Scripture: Psalm 47:8, NIV - God reigns over the nations; God is seated on his holy throne.
Today’s Word: The psalmist says that God reigns over the world. That means He also reigns over your health, your finances, your family, and your enemies. It may look as though the opposition is bigger and more powerful, and they have more influence and resources, but when you have God on the throne, He's more powerful than anything that's trying to stop you. He reigns over those enemies. One angel in the Old Testament defeated an enemy army of 185,000 soldiers in one night. What's trying to stop you doesn't have a chance. The forces for you are greater than the forces against you. Now don't get tired of standing in faith. The battle may be taking longer than you thought. Keep doing the right thing. God sees where you are and what's happening. He's collected every tear you've shed. Your time is coming. Your due season is on the way. You're not going to just come out; you're going to come out vindicated and promoted to a new level of your destiny.
Prayer for Today: Father, thank You that You reign over the nations, and You reign over all the situations in my life as well. Thank You that the throne of my life can be reserved for You. I declare that You are greater than anything that comes against me and that I am standing in faith for my due season. In Jesus' Name, Amen
