When you know you have the blessing, you stay in peace. You know it’s just a matter of time before things turn in your favor. You know God being for you is more than the world being against you.

God is about to make some things beautiful in your life. Whether you made the mistakes or life threw you some curves at no fault of your own—bad breaks, disappointments—God saw it. Your time is coming. He didn’t bring you this far to leave you.

I’ve learned, the sun will still come up if I don’t get everything done. The sun will still rise if I don’t keep everyone happy. You’re not doing yourself any favors living out of a depleted state. Click here to watch, "Take Care of Yourself": YouTube.com/JoelOsteen

Many times, before a promise comes to pass, you have to go through a season of silence where you don’t see anything changing. This is when many people give up on what they’re believing for. But just because you don’t see anything happening doesn’t mean God is not working.

It may be a good thing, but good things can wear you out. Good people can deplete you. It’s all about balance. Does it work with the season you’re in right now? Does it fit with what you already have to do?

You’ve been there for everyone except you. Why don’t you treat yourself as good as you treat others? You have to take care of your temple. You’re not invincible. Listen now to this message from Joel, "Take Care of Yourself": bit.ly/JOAPodcast

Life makes a lot of withdrawals. Don’t make the mistake of living overdrawn. If you go into a new week at a deficit, that’s when you get overwhelmed, frustrated. You’re not as productive; your gifts aren’t coming out like they should.

If you’re giving all the time and never filling back up, you’re going to be depleted. You’re good to others; why don’t you be good to you? You’re kind to others, be kind to yourself. Be generous to yourself, be loving to yourself.

It’s not selfish to take time for you. You need time to get refreshed, to reenergize. You shouldn’t be so busy that you don’t have time to be alone, time to laugh, time to exercise. You need recreation. You need things that keep you in balance.

If you don’t learn to say no to some things, then nothing will change. Stay in balance. You can’t work all the time, serve your family all the time, be strong for others all the time. Tune into Joel’s message today, "Take Care of Yourself"! bit.ly/JOAPodcast

When people don’t accept you, when they leave you out, when they try to stir up conflict, don’t take it personally. It’s not about you. It’s about the favor God’s put on you. If you can’t handle the persecution, then God won’t trust you with the blessing.

@JoelOsteen Amen 🙏🏾 thank you for sharing this, I never thought about praying big, only to get by, much to learn, so excited

When you know who you’re talking to, you won’t pray weak prayers. You’ll pray bold prayers. You’ll ask for things that other people think are far out, too much, that could never happen. Bold prayers get bold results.

Don’t stay focused on the persecution, “Why did they turn on me, why are they talking about me, why aren’t they for me?” It’s because the blessing comes with persecution. It’s a test. Can you handle the opposition, the jealousy, the people stirring up trouble?

You have to get in agreement with God. Don’t go through life with a small vision, praying small, thinking small. You activate your faith by not only believing, but by asking. Check out "Dare to Pray Boldly" on Podcast here! bit.ly/JOAPodcast

Find your cause, fight for someone that can’t fight for themselves, get involved in something bigger than you. That’s where your crown is. That’s where your greatness is going to come out.

Don’t get upset when people turn on you. Don’t be revengeful and use your influence to pay them back or live bitter. Ignore it; don’t give it the time of day. God will take care of the persecutors.

Dare to ask, not just for your needs, not just for small things, but ask for your dreams, ask for the big things God put in your heart. He’s longing to be good to you. He wants to show you His favor in new ways. He’s just waiting for you to ask.
