Peaceful On Purpose | Joel Osteen

We’re not supposed to go through life weighted down by worry, stress and anxiety. Let Joel show you how to make God bigger than your circumstance in this practical message. As you release your cares to God and enter into His rest, you will live life with greater joy, ease and fulfillment.

Jesus said in Matthew 6:34, “Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have enough worries of its own.”

Are you waiting for your circumstances in life to line up just right before you’ll have peace? Well, you may be waiting your whole life then! Because the truth is, life is full of ups and downs. Every day we have opportunities to get upset, be worried and live offended. Many people live life worried each day, but most often, these worries never even happen. Instead, all worry does is rob us of our joy, creativity and focus. But Joel wants to show you that there’s a better way to live.

My favourite quote from Joel " You may not know what the future holds but you know who holds the futre"...

[GospelLoveSongs]

I’m 40 weeks and 4 days pregnant. My baby gets active and worships with me every single time I play this. I’m going to play this on repeat in my delivery room, as I could not think of a better time to worship and praise God.

Prayers to everyone reading and watching. We are all connected!

Thank you. God is everything in my life. He has helped me overcome my depression and stopped me from multiple suicide attempts.

I started drinking when I was 16. I would drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back. At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God, and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God's presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I'm going to die Jesus save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger. It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this can’t be real it’s impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real to me it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now, Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings and we believe in Christ's sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE LIVES!

[musicheartbeat]

Do not worry for tomorrow. Thanks for this wonderful message. It utters my inner mind and body. I used to worry so much for the past months up to now. Though, I prayed and prayed still, I can feel that problems in me. God, I know this is it. I know You're doing everything for me. I asked again for Your protection and wisdom to train up my mind, body and soul for everything and beyond measure things that I will encounter in my life. I trust You Lord with all my heart❤🙏

[rozziec.]

I am a what if oh my god what how when will it
STOP IT!!! I was driving myself CRAZY!!! People don’t understand all that’s why I had to listen to Joel Osteen, Joyce Meyer and others for help. I’m not in a church but I need to hear about the Heavenly Father. I want to move from my studio apartment. I got a call and am completing the applications. The lady I have to speak with sounds nasty and helpful and I want to smack her BUT today I said I will pray over her because I can’t change her and let God do his work. I have been waiting 13 years to move. I kept my peace. Life is short. My place is being created for me. Lord I thank you in advance for your grace, favor and blessings. In the name of the most high Amen. I need you.

[johannarossga-a]

Today, I was anxious because I wasn’t even anxious about the result of my Board Exam. I don’t know if you get my point. But just like Pastor Joel said, I already did what I had to do and I’ll rest knowing that God is fighting my battles🙏 I won’t stress out on things I can’t control. Lord, I trust in you that you will bring victory this month. I will become a licensed Civil Engineer by November 26, 2024! I declare God’s favor. Amen🙏👆🏻

[mannygonzalez]

"Worry is like interest paid on a debt before it's due". Trust God.

[marianbarchilon]

Cast your care on the Lord. A place of peace. Be still and know he is God. The still.waters. Put God back on the throne. Guard your mind. Turn worry into worship. Trust God and praise him. God will give us the grace. Enter into the rest of God. Stable and consistent.
