15 Joel Osteen Quotes About God

“You have to trust God. He can see things you can’t see. He knows what’s best. It’s all a part of His plan to get you prepared, developed, stronger. God knows what you’re going to need.” – Joel Osteen

“I believe that God has put gifts and talents and ability on the inside of every one of us. When you develop that and you believe in yourself and you believe that you’re a person of influence and a person of purpose, I believe you can rise up out of any situation.” – Joel Osteen

“God accepts and approves you right where you are: faults, mistakes, shortcomings, and all. He knows you’re on a journey. He’s changing you little by little. He accepts you. Now, you have to accept yourself.” – Joel Osteen

“When you focus on being a blessing, God makes sure that you are always blessed in abundance.” – Joel Osteen

“I just think that trusting God means we’re going to have unanswered questions, and God is so much bigger than us, we’re never going to understand them all.” – Joel Osteen

“God doesn’t ask you to do something and not give you what you need. The question is are you going to stay comfortable, where it’s safe, or are you going to step into your calling? This takes boldness. This takes a made-up mind that says, “I’m not going to let fear, insecurity, what I don’t have, what I don’t think I can do, keep me in my limited environment. I’m going to stretch; I’m going to take a risk. I may hurt feelings, but I’m going to make changes to follow the call. I’m not going to sit in dysfunction, surrounded by dysfunctional friends. I’m going to rise up and move forward.” – Joel Osteen

“I don’t think you should spend your life praying for things, but I do believe you should thank God for what He’s given you… but I think the scripture teaches us that we can pray for our dreams, pray for the big things… he’s not a small God; this God is incredible.” – Joel Osteen

“Sometimes we focus on the mess of the broken dream, but in all the mess God sees greatness. He knows how to take your troubles and turn them into trophies, how to take the test and make it your testimony.” – Joel Osteen

“God knows what’s in you; He knows what you’re capable of. He’s not going to let fear hold you back. He’s not going to let negative things people have spoken over you keep you locked in. He’s not going to let how you were raised, what you didn’t get, keep you from becoming who He created you to be.” – Joel Osteen

“God made you a masterpiece – be blessed, secure, disciplined and equipped.” – Joel Osteen

“When God puts something in your heart and deep down you know it’s a destiny moment, don’t wait for ten confirmations. Do what God is asking you to do now.” – Joel Osteen

“God wants to take you where no one in your family has gone. He has influence, opportunity, favor as you’ve never seen. You wouldn’t be reading this if there wasn’t something bigger, something better coming your way. But with those new levels, there will be new devils. There will be giants on your land, opposition, things you don’t understand, things that are not fair, people that are against you. You don’t win these battles with just skill, strength, outmaneuvering. It’s a spiritual battle. It is won with the sword of the spirit, with declaring God’s promises, with standing in faith, unwavering, unmoved.” – Joel Osteen

“Show God that you’re not just going to be happy if He brings you out, but you’re going to shine even if it doesn’t happen your way. Show God that you’re going to be your best, even though it’s not changing on your timetable. That’s inviting God into the fire. Not just, “God, get me out,” but, “God, give me the strength to be here with a good attitude.”  – Joel Osteen

“God is going to make a way where you don’t see a way. He is not just a way maker; He is the way. He can create what you need. That’s why He’s called the great I AM.  “I AM whatever you need. I AM favor, I AM breakthroughs, I AM healing, I AM abundance.”   – Joel Osteen
