- There are times in all of our lives when God will ask us to step out in faith. We don't understand it. We can't see how a situation is going to work out, but in the midst of not knowing, we can decide to trust Him. These times are necessary in order for our faith to be matured. Being comfortable in the unknown is a powerful act of trust.

I was about to completely give up on life just a minute ago. But from this moment on, I decided to fully give my life to the Lord. Amen!
So glad you did
God bless you.
I'm sending hope you're still going strong! Remember that Jesus is making you strong and healthy. Baby steps lead to big breakthroughs. Love is big enough to cover all of the problems you encounter, God is love and is on your side! Amen
Praise God Amen!!!! I’m glad your not giving up! With God Life is worth living! Life is a gift and the Giver is good!!
@Dheep Matharu Yes, He does.
Rather than playing video games, I listen to the word of God
Good job. You are sewing seeds in your life that will take root and grow in Jesus name.
How about tonight? Get a message from Jesus, it will be new life today. Your effort is known by God so keep up the great work. 😃
@@jdanielzuk thank you
Yeah I've replaced most of my gaming time to God time. Church, the word, prayer, music... tiz better than gaming
You’ll find out that is one of the biggest and most important thing you have decided to do for your life. And God has amazing things ahead of you and you need to believe that. Congratulations.
My heart is heavy right now, over things I have no control over . I've cried , I've prayed, I know I'm not a victim I'm a VICTOR ,and God will see me through this . Prayer works . God bless all of you
How is the situation now...? Hope u r blessed... God loves you
Praying for you now
Hope things have become better for you 🙏🏻
My heart is also heavy too. My 14-year-old granddaughter is in a psychiatric institute and has been there for months because she had a hard time with her mother who just died of breast cancer. Get a mammogram. Please pray for Lliana But she will able to understand how, how, how to align & accept her mother passing. Thank you
It hurts. The pain.
When you pass the test of not knowing, Supernatural provision is coming...Because you trusted when you didn't understand, God is going to do things for you that you can't explain.. AMEN
“God has planned all our days” 💖 Be still and know that he is on the throne 🙌🏾

My husband died 2 months ago so young only 26 we got married last year...i didn't understand and didn't know the answer, cause God is working behind the scenes ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
death is freedom. hes in a much better place.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽God bless you and give you peace. Amen
Love & Light to you !
Hugs dear it's well
Sorry for your loss...what a comfort to know God's in control
I'm not religious at all, but sometimes I put on Joel for my mom to take her mind off of negativity and the chaos in her mind....... and I gotta admit, even to myself, he's one inspiring man. If you have a parent that isn't all there.... play Osteen for them sometime....... they might really enjoy it.. he's helped my mom a lot in a lot of cases....... Thanks Joel 🙏🏼
I 100% agree
After two miscarriages in a row we are now expecting our first baby girl 💕
Congradulations! Glory be to God for your miracle.💞
@@kikivalentine1551 YESS!!!! and thank you
@Josephine Bournes thank you!
God bless the child!! And congratulations guys!!
So god finally decided to let nature do its thing because you begged harder? Is that how life in the real world works?
I was crying today because of not knowing what is going to happen to me since I'm feeling stacked in my life, this message is accurate to my current situation. Thanks for all Pastor Joel... Glory to God.
Keep on walking by faith, and love, healings, abundance and prosperity shall follow you till the end of your time. 😇🌻💗
Giovanni, God ways are better then our ways! And when it all comes together you see God great plan for your life.
Look up Godwinks on Utube to confirm what God does!!!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Bahaha, "Pastor" Joel. That's the funniest thing I ever heard. This man is as much a "pastor" as I am the Queen of England.
@@annemariegigi4069
So sad you think that way
I say it all the time. God doesn't give me the details only the direction.
@Timothy Blount indeed.🙏
@Decoding End Times
Yes GOD is in control.
I say this always:
THY WILL LORD
NOT MINE
@Decoding End Times My Dear, EVERYTHING in our lives happens for a reason. However it all plays out, it was meant to play out for a higher purpose. We all play our role in this game called life. The only way to come out ahead is to love yourself unconditionally. You'd be surprised of effective that one "difficult" yet simple state of being is... If we are alive, we don't have a problem. If we are dead we don't have a problem. So be at peace my Love and take it one sweet day at a time. Namaste🙏❤
Read your bible it says different John 16:13
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
@@lisaelizabethsnow1970 I say this with love. I think you need to keep rereading that verse. 😉❤🙏
Thank God , wake me up a nother beautiful morning again , worshipping and pray for you all every morning and me , I am request to our father of Jesus Christ name . Amen .

@@pamjones5280 thank you and God Bless
I trust God with all my heart, he will make a way when there seems to be no way
Bless you! All shall be well.
amen.
I am not religious and a lot of people criticize Mr. Osteen. But I have heard a lot of his sermons and I hear the same things consistently:
1. Don't judge others, you don't know what they are going through.
2. Don't give up when life punches you, keep on keeping on.
3. Don't cling to the negatives in life.
4. Let the past go, you can change only tomorrow.
5. Help others.
Sounds like great advice, with stories to back it up.
Be comfortable not knowing. God doesn't show us everything so we have pray and wait for Lord to show us. Amen
I’m not Christian but this is amazing! I literally shed tears!❤️😭
Sounds like the comfort of God.
The Holy Spirit will use his people to preach, to encourage and to inspire, but it is the One True God who sent his own son to suffer for your sins and to die for those sins in your place. If you accept that and verbally call Jesus your Lord and savior you will get to know The God who gave all for you.
@@jrlovepll1215 I can learn from other religions and be moved by their message. But I’m good with my GOD thanks.
Pliz come to Jesus the way n the truth n am sureyu will never regret!Jesus Christ died for us n for sure your life will never be the same again!!!Trust me with Jesus Christ in you everything will change for the best!!
Joe I don't know how much God should bless you
Everyday when am listening to your message, I get thousands of healing from my broken heart

Oyoo, the spirit of God's love is all over you, good soul. You too are like medicine to all beings, in these rough times on earth. Wounded healers bring truly good medicine.

At this time of uncertainty God's work tells us.....we know not....but trust God knows.
Gave my life back to God last night. No more fear bout to be homeless with two dogs but God will make a way. I believe it I speak it
I don't have any answers to my life's circumstances for now.. and I guess that's OK. God guided me here and I am glad that He did.
Dear friend kiss "keep it simple sinner" please don't let man distract you from the simple truth!!! Remember the world of man's doctrine traditions are the beginning of our spiritual chains?? Always go to the Creator =GOD, Jesus Christ =Yahusha AND Holy Spirit. Be separated from the world, a true born again Christian is someone who is different from the world in Jesus Christ =Yahusha carrying of our cross daily denying the desires of the flesh sincere repentance =asking Jesus Christ =Yahusha for forgiveness of all our sins, confessing all sin to Jesus Christ =Yahusha for forgiveness, so that we can be able to receive the GIFT of the Holy Spirit ,in where we shall witness this great experience, so that others can be spiritually saved!!!.
No one does Muy/
Thanks Pastor Joel for reminding me to worry less and keep my faith up 🙏🏻 Your right it’s ok not to know 🙂
Jennie Bennett that’s why I said reminding. We’re just human and we losses tracks too.
It’s so true. I believe that is why God sends people our way to help remind us. I am thankful for this message. It is helping me.
Mahobee Howell Yes! I agree in that
Today,I choose to get out of the throne. I am letting God be in throne, I am nothing good without Him after all. ❤
I am one of chronic disease treatment youth so pray for me. I never forget to you. Thank you from my heart.
Now i know... D Lord provided me another $60,000 for my legal battle... then i got turned down
again.. b4 this i spent already around $40,000 ... i felt like Job... i was crying for almost a month it hurts inside...& askin God why why why... its like a big joke... now im leaving pay ck to pay ck again.... all my savings GONE... but God showed me a scripture He said I will not, I will not, I will not... forsake u nor leave U... 25+ yrs & counting on this case i lost all hope... and leave it all to God.... after listening to Joels sermon... my situation finally is clear to me... i dont know.... But God knows... thats y brothers & Sisters dont loose hope.... its not to late God will pay back for lost time and money....Trust in Jesus.... Amen!
Thank you Father that all my troubles are working out for my good. Trust u Lord. Amen
Same here. Every trouble is a step higher.
Praise be to god. He's in control. All the trials and tribulations are meant for me. He has never left me in the dark and he isnt going to start now.
I’m in need of a really good job that I can handle with my health issues.
After listening to this I know I have to let go and let God.
He is in control now of my life. God will provide
No more anxiety. No more sleepless nights. No more crying or fear.
God is with me always. Amen
Every message of Pastor Joel brings me to tears. Thank you. God bless you more
This message has encouraged me. I forget how I need to keep leaning on God and not my own understanding. I know I had a mental stronghold that my security comes from understanding all that is happening in my life and I got the revelation that Jesus alone is my security. Thank you Lord for your mercy. Sometimes, going through a trial, we can forget the truth of God's word, i need to remember this for me rest of my days.
I will trust him @jesus all my life that one day am gonna help many homeless people.maria , Kenya , Africa.
Thank you Joel come in to my life.whenever you came in my life,my life has been changed.i am a Muslim but my belief in God starts after I have listen to you.when I listen you my belief on God become more stong and strong.thank you once again.
SHIRAZ HABEEB May God bless you! May your faith grow from one level to the next! All for His glory! 🙏🏾🙌🏾
I think we are all more alike than not. Our God may have a different name, but He is the same divine being who loves us. 💜💜💜💜
Joel Osteen is the coolest preacher in today's world. I like his swag! I'm hooked on Sirius 128! Thank God for Joel Osteen!!!
This was my son's and me first time at Lakewood, we will be back soon in Jesus Name.

He has not brought us this far to drop us helpless. I believe in you Jesus!!! Through your favor I put God today in the throne! Amen
This comes right on time. I am moving to France in a few weeks. I have no idea what job/ career is there for me. I have no clue how to secure a visa, once mine expires. God just told me to go.
He will provide all the rest...

We have to trust God during times of uncertainty, such as during this CoVid-19 pandemic. It is only God who can heal people and heal the world.
Lord Jesus of Nazareth will lead me Forward in all that I do. Thank you. AMEN
So good. My son has severe autism I've always known it was God's test and you're spot on, with great faith miracles occur. He's 6 now and starting to speak and is out of diapers.

It is good when you don't, to put trust into God knowing that he is start and finisher of things ". Amen.
Father, I will wait patiently for you to deliver a beautiful wife into my life. In the meantime, I will continue working on my book.
What is your book about?
@@shemitch My book is about my personal recovery after Narc abuse. Not only to survive but to thrive.
May it be so as your heart desires. It is well
Hi John, this message from Joel really spoke to what I need help with right now in my life too. I just finished writing my book, and parts of my book discuss a prophesy and supernatural vision that I believe was from God concerning my future wife. I saw what she looked like, heard her first name (Kristen or some other spelling of that name) and I heard that I'll be 33 and she 29 when we get married. I just turned 30. I've been standing on that promise since January 2018 but sometimes still need reassurance despite all the confirmations and signs I've gotten... I feel like God has shaken His head at me at times thinking "haven't I sent enough signs for you to not doubt anymore" but I'm getting better with that. I'll be praying for you in every area of your life :)
She's on the way.
Cause of not knowing I've grown with belief faith that God got my life MY LIFE IS IN HIS HANDS! AMEN.
Pray for me and my family
Thank you Joel Osteen for your lifegiving messages. We listen every evening. ..From the Philippines.May THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY bless you greatly for HIS glory and honor.

Amen and Amen Lord,
Am trusting you for My future husbd, kids,ministry and finances.
Thanx God🙌🙌🙌🙌
I might not understand what is going around me, but I know God is working behind the scenes. Jesus take the wheel over my life 🙏
Bitty with the excitement of not knowing .....then knowing and the joy only He can bring about.
Thank you Pastor Joel Osteen I'm so blessed listening to your preaching. God bless you!
This Word resonated to the depths of my soul... Wow cause I'm one that always needed to know
It is very difficult to trust God when we can't see Him working on our behalf, but we must remember to walk by faith n not by sight, n to b strong in the Lord n in the Power of His Might!😇
Dear Father thank You that You bless and protect Joel Osteen and the Ministry 💖thank You that You bless them with favor 💖Thou shalt arise , and have mercy upon Joel Osteen and the Ministry 💖for a time to favor them, yea the set time has come💖in Jesus name thank You 💖Amen
God blesses us in a way to let us know that He is the True God. It's not our way but God's way. The battle is not ours but the Lord 💘.
I went through a break with a girlfriend who is going through a bad time as well... i don't know what to do... i know she is still interested in me, but didnt know what to do next until now... decided to let God take control over my relationship and over us, as well as praying for her and her difficulties. Thank you God for your blessing. Amen.
We sometimes own our worries, fear, and hopelessness. Without thinking there were situations just came over our lives unexpectedly. Its hard, its eating our faith. It's good and refreshing to know God deeply.
Great message. Thank you Lord, for allowing me to be in your family. Thank you Jesus for all you did on the cross. I love you Holy Spirit. I love you all. Amen
I visited my favorite pastor while in Houston and the whole Service was awesome .. I enjoyed everything also got too sit in the front next too him well not next too him but around that area it was amazing can’t wait too visit next year
From Tanzania Africa 2019 the word of Jesus Christ is shining across the world 🌎
When you are down to nothing GOD is up to something. I was on the brink of giving up but ever since I heard this message from Joel Osteen I will never loose hope. All things work together to those who don't loose faith. I'm next in line in JESUS MIGHTY NAME. AMEN 🙏
Always keep in my mind that My Heavenly Father is always working for me. Praise and glory be to Lord for the blessings.
GOD is in control 🙏🏼 !
I like this message. In a time of "not knowing" I got saved. By myself in a parking lot behind a mall I found the Lord. Is was my time. Your time is also coming. Jesus knew you before you were born and He knows your appointed time. When you accept Christ into your life you need to read the Word. A couple of verses memorized can move mountains that are in your way and defeat giants in your path. The Word of God is a sword and without it you cannot fight the enemy. Be strong not in yourself, but in the Lord. God Bless You.
i started listening to you when i was struggling with life and what feels like overwhelming obstacles and I’ve listened everyday. Just last week and yesterday I know GOD is on the throne. both of my daughters were in car accidents a week apart. thank GOD no one else was involved. Both cars were a total loss and it is By the grace of God- both of my daughters are alive. the Lord has control. # Praise God.
Heavenly father, our almighty provider I rest my life in your hards and trust that all things are working for my good. In your name I trust. In Jesus name. AMEN ❤
Amen 🙏I believe and I receive my blessings in Jesus Christ name 🙏
I've been listening to Joel's messages for about 14 years now, and I'm so thankful to God for them
I am off your throne LORD GOD ALMIGHTY
I leave myself my family and my situations to you.
I am at peace i am ok not knowing how it is all going to turn out because you are in control my LORD GOD ALMIGHTY
In the name of Jesus Christ amen
Listening to Joel has changed my life in a way I've never imagined.
i always cry /get teary-eyed whenever i listen to joels words
So profound,I was just crying because of something I was not sure about and I said to God "I am going to type in Joel Osteen show me what I need see " and just like that this was the first video I say so I clicked .I just want say now I am so content,full of joy because I know I have no need to worry God will work all things out for me
My situation is not promising, but God is certainly on the throne and he is working out something...In his own time he will make things right...God is in control
Thank you Lord for bringing us this man of God that encourage us and motive us to build up our faith with God
Please help us with a line we can call a glorify the name of God
What I always say “Gods plan is perfect “
I'm happy for this message because I'm stuck in my life I don't know what next
Father, I trust you when I do not know. My life is in your hands.
I don't know but I know all things for those who believe in Christ
