Joel and Victoria Osteen’s daily devotional October 28, 2016 – God Works for Your Good

Today’s Scripture: “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose” - (Romans 8:28, NIV)

Topic: God Works for Your Good [October 28, 2016]

God has a plan to take every adversity and every hardship you go through and use it. He’s not going to beat you down and make your life miserable. No; God’s dream is to take that difficulty and supernaturally turn it around and use it to bring you good. He will use those tough times to bring you out stronger, more mature and prepared for promotion! Goodness, mercy and unfailing love are God’s plan for you!

You may not understand everything that’s going on in your life right now, but I encourage you to keep your head held high. Know that God is working in your life. Keep being faithful. Keep doing the right thing, knowing that in the end God is going to turn things around in your favor. If God is for you, who can be against you? No one. Greater is the One who is in you than anyone who can be against you. No matter what’s going on around you today, you can put your shoulders back and put a smile on your face because God is working things together for your good because He loves you!

A Prayer for Today: “Father in heaven, thank You for Your goodness and faithfulness in my life. Thank You for all You’ve done for me in my past and for what You are preparing for my future. Help me keep my eyes on You and stand strong as I look for Your goodness all the days of my life. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.”
