Beating Bitterness - Joel Osteen

  • You can’t stop life from happening to you, but you can choose how you respond. At the office, a coworker says something that offends you. It starts off as a little seed. If you let it go, nothing will come of it. But if you dwell on it, you’ll soon be holding a grudge. Now that little seed is taking root. It starts to grow and before long it will pollute other areas of your life. That’s why Hebrews 12:15 warns “that no poisonous root of bitterness grows up to trouble you, corrupting many.”
    The good news is you don’t have to live with bitter roots. Ask God to show you what’s causing you to be bitter. Maybe you need to forgive somebody, maybe you’re still sour over a dream that didn’t work out, or maybe you’re still beating yourself up over a mistake you made in the past. Be honest with yourself and say, “God, help me to get this root of bitterness out of me. I don’t want to live angry and bitter. I want my passion back. I want to love again. I want to laugh again. I want to dream again. God, help me to let it go and move forward.”

    He is so very right."life is short, we may not be here tomorrow"
    I had a heart attack 4 yrs ago, I'm 56 now.
    Came out of no where, no signs, no warning at all. I have known people who just died, no warnings, nothing. There one minute gone the next.
    I have gone thru a horrible divorce for the past 6 years. Spent 100,000 on my attorney, my ex hid roughly 500,000 from our businesses while we were married (21yrs) she defaulted on all of our properties, businesses, she purposely ran our properties into the dirt..nothing is left.
    She has lied, cheated, plotted against me with a vengance now for 6 yrs. I still have primary custody of our son. God has provided me and son with all we need. We lack for nothing.
    I'm in a new place (spiritually) I forgive her for all she has done, I do not say bad things about her, God is our vindicator, he will make all things right. When I see her in town, I wave, I say hello. She "will not" steal my joy, I will not live bitter because of her.
    Life is short and fragile, be at peace, live in peace, trust God for every single thing in your life.
    Blessings. 😁

    This sermon broke me emotionally a few weeks ago. I kept so much hurt and anger inside. I hurt so much I couldn't cry but I had become bitter and miserable. That morning I listened to this the tears started flowing. Whilst at work where the source of my anger was I constantly felt the urge to cry. I let it all out for about 5mins in the washroom. From then I felt like a burden had been lifted off me and I feel so much like my old self . I have a more positive outlook on life and it had reinforced the fact that God is working things out for me. This sermon was my breakthrough. God's blessing on you Mr. Osteen

    If you do the will of God or do what God has called you for, people will judge and say negative things about you. Don't listen to them, you are called by God, not by them. Joel Osteen is doing what he was called for and God is blessing him. Thank you for not allowing the naysayers stop you. God is with you. Jesus was never liked, He was killed and hanged on the cross, but he fulfilled his purpose, its now over 2000 years, we still celebrate his victory. He arose from the dead, He is still alive.

      @Susan Lindhorst 🇨🇦 Hi from 🇺🇸 I don't know you, but I AM elated & I am, both PROUD of, and, for you. Holding onto bitterness doesn't effect the other person; but, the one having bitterness. It keeps you in bondage (while the other person is 'FREE'! A "root of bitterness", has to be upRooted; cursed from it's root- i.e. the 'ROOT'cause.
      🔹Hebrews 12:14-15 KJV
      14 Follow peace... 15 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any [root of bitterness] springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;
      Recollect Jesus' Plan: Mark 11

      Story ⏩ Mark 11:20-26 KJV
      20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. 21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou 🔸cursedst is *withered away.
      22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
      23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall [not doubt in his heart], but shall *believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
      24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye received them, and ye shall have them.
      25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
      26 But 🔸if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

And after an year it has turned in to a nightmare and we just don't understand why they so much mistreat people in the company. Now they do that to my husband too. Day in and out I cry and pray to God to find a job for him so he can be removed from this place. But from now on , I am going to forgive them and pray for them too. No matter how bad they treet him.

    I never see a Bible in Joel's hands but I enjoy watching him and he does make me smile. I love his Mama, Dodie, and I love her testimony of healing and I love her teachings of the healing scriptures. I believe that the Osteen family has God's Favor on their side. Paul Osteen, Joel's brother, a talented surgeon, has also provided medical care to multitudes of poor people in Africa. Regardless of other people's criticism, the Osteen family are loyal to the Lord Almighty, Jesus Christ; and that's all that really matters.

I have come a long way with Pastor Osteen I find nothing wrong with what he preaches, ITS FOR OUR GOOD! He and Wife are not telling us to be greedy, he says to live an abundant life. I saw a comment that said he and his wife are spreading blasphemy...I dont get it. Maybe these harsh commentators need to really LISTEN to what Pastor Osteen is saying about "Beating bitterness". My recommendation: If you don't like the positive messages on this channel.....TURN THE CHANNEL and Have a good day.

    I am not a Christian but I absolutely love the teachings of Jesus and the lovely Bible (I studied in a convent school). Sending lots of love from India and the United States. Thank you. I am inherently a very positive, warm-hearted person and I love all the things and all the people and all the aspects of this beautiful world, the happiness and the sadness both.
    But I had been burning inside by the injustice that life caused for the past 4 months and this talk healed me considerably. I want to let go of the resentment, anger, and absolute disgust that I hold for the person who wronged me. I want God to make him realize how gravely unjust he was. He was jealous of God himself and he stopped me from worshipping God. And he was on very wrong paths (multiple wrong paths), and he was arrogant about it, he did not want to change as he did not feel he was wrong. I keep questioning God, why did you bring such a manipulative, filthy person into my life when I always had good intentions for others throughout my life. I want to let go of all the resentment now. I am done. I hate that person. But I do not want to carry this hatred anymore because I know that hatred is bad for the one who carries it. I pray to God that he heals me soon. I know that He does everything for a reason and His choice is always better than my choice. So I completely accept what He has planned for me. God is gonna take care of the injustice, I know this in my heart, so I am letting go.
    I am thankful to God for standing like a shield and saving me from the misery of a lifetime.
