Joel Osteen (May-27-2025) Today's Word: Take Your Mountain
Today’s Scripture: Joshua 14:12, NKJV - "Now therefore, give me this mountain of which the LORD spoke in that day..."
Today’s Word: When Caleb was eighty-five years old, forty years after the negative report of the other ten spies had kept him and the Israelites out of the Promised Land, he wasn't sitting around feeling sorry for himself. No, he went back to the same mountain where three giants still lived, the place where the others had refused to go in, and he said, "Give me this mountain that God promised me. Give me the dream that's been burning in me for all these years." Have you allowed any dreams to get buried in you? At one time you thought you could do something great, but you had some bad breaks. You have a good excuse to settle; nobody would blame you if you did. But that dream is still alive. God is saying to you what he said to Caleb, "Go back and try again. This is your time. Your destiny is calling out to you. Stir up your gifts, and go after what I put in your heart."
Prayer for Today: Father, thank You that whether Your promise is fulfilled in my life today or years from now, You will bring it to pass in Your perfect time. Thank You that I too can say, "God, give me this mountain." I declare that every giant, every obstacle that stands in the way will be conquered. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
