Wonders never before done

Never Seen Before! TODAY'S SCRIPTURE "Then the LORD said: 'I am making a covenant with you. Before all your people I will do wonders never before done in any nation in all the world. The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the LORD, will do for you' " (Exodus 34:10, NIV) TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria Friend, if you're going to reach your highest potential in the natural, you will need to have supernatural doors open for you that you cannot open on your own. You're going to need promotion, good breaks, divine connections and God's favor greater than what you've seen in the past. God said in Exodus, "I will perform great wonders that I have not done anywhere before in all the world. People will see what great things I can do because of the awesome things I'm about to do for you." Think about that for a moment and let it take root in your spirit. God is saying, "I'm going to do something awesome in your life." "Awesome" means "astounding, remarkable, overwhelming, breathtaking." The key is found in the very next verse; it says, "Obey what I have commanded." God's ready to do His part, and we have to do ours. When we do things God's way, we get God's results. When we follow His Word, He promises to bless us with life, health, peace and joy. He promises to do what has never been done before! A PRAYER FOR TODAY Father, thank You for Your goodness and faithfulness in my life. I trust that You are opening doors for me that no man can shut. I choose to obey Your commands and walk in love as I wait on Your marvelous plan to unfold in Jesus' name. Amen. — Joel & Victoria Osteen WITH A GIFT OF ANY AMOUNT UNPRECEDENTED FAVOR New CD/DVD resource WITH A GIFT $125 OR MORE SLIMLINE NLT BIBLE & DAILY JOURNAL Premium, Large-print Reference Bible and Daily Journal Plus: Unprecedented Favor

Direction and Protection TODAY’S SCRIPTURE “For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor; no good thing does He withhold from those whose walk is blameless” (Psalm 84:11, NIV) TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria God has many ways of pouring out His favor and goodness on our lives. Scripture says that He is your sun and shield. What does the sun do for us? It lights our way, keeps us warm, and nourishes the plants of the earth so that we can have food. Think about that for a moment. The earth is sustained by its relationship to the sun, and God wants to sustain you through your relationship with Him. He wants to give you direction and be your shield of protection against all the fiery darts of the enemy. In the natural, it’s easy to fall into the trap of relying on the things of this world to direct and protect us. But when we put our trust and hope in our heavenly Father, not only does it enrich our relationship with Him, it opens the door to the supernatural realm. It opens the door to supernatural favor, wisdom, divine connections, new ideas and so much more. When you trust in Him, He shines His light on your path and leads you forward into the blessing and victory He has prepared for you! A PRAYER FOR TODAY Father in heaven, today I open my heart and mind to You. I choose to put my trust in You and receive Your blessing of direction and protection. Show me Your ways that I may walk with You today and always in Jesus’ name. Amen. — Joel & Victoria Osteen WITH A GIFT OF ANY AMOUNT UNPRECEDENTED FAVOR New CD/DVD resource WITH A GIFT $125 OR MORE SLIMLINE NLT BIBLE & DAILY JOURNAL Premium, Large-print Reference Bible and Daily Journal Plus: Unprecedented Favor

Undeserved, Unearned, Unexplainable

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE "Whoever finds me finds life, and obtains favor from the LORD" (Proverbs 8:35, NKJV) TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria God loves you and He is for you! He is for your good; He is for your success; He is for your future. He desires for you to have every blessing and every promise declared in His Word. This is what the Bible calls His favor. At some point in our lives, even if we didn't recognize it, we have all experienced God's favor. It is simply His undeserved, unearned, unexplainable goodness in your life. God's favor causes you to reap where you haven't sown. His favor protects you, promotes you and opens new doors. His favor takes you places you could never go on your own. Today, I declare over your life that in the coming days and weeks ahead, God is going to unleash His unprecedented favor on you — favor like you've never seen before! The key is to stay connected to Him, stay in fellowship with Him through prayer, worship and reading His Word. Let Him direct your steps and mold and shape your character. As you pour yourself out to Him, He will pour out Himself on you! He'll pour out His grace, mercy and supernatural, undeserved, unearned, unexplainable favor on every area of your life! A PRAYER FOR TODAY Father God, thank You for Your goodness and favor in my life. I trust that You are working behind the scenes on my behalf. I trust that Your plans are to prosper me and give me a future and a hope. I set my mind and heart on You this day and expect to see Your goodness in Jesus' name. Amen.

Unprecedented Favor TODAY’S SCRIPTURE “And [so that you can know and understand] what is the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who believe...” (Ephesians 1:19, AMP) TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria Every one of us can say that, in our lives, God has been good to us. We’ve all seen God’s favor at work. He has protected us, promoted us and opened doors for us. That’s God’s favor. But I believe that in the coming days, God wants to show us unprecedented favor — that’s favor like we haven’t seen before. In today’s verse, Paul said that in the “ages to come” we would see “the immeasurable, unlimited, surpassing greatness of God’s favor.” What’s interesting is that Paul wrote this passage ages ago. I believe that we are now living in the “ages to come” that Paul was talking about. I believe you and I are going to see this unprecedented favor! The word “unprecedented” means “unmatched, unparalleled, for the first time.” In other words, you may have seen God’s favor in the past, but you need to get ready. You haven’t seen anything yet. What God has in your future is going to be bigger, better, greater — unprecedented! He is going to show you His goodness in ways you’ve never seen before. Keep standing, keep praying, keep putting Him first and watch His unprecedented favor come on every area of your life! A PRAYER FOR TODAY Father God, thank You for this day and age I’m living in. I believe that You created me for such a time as this. By faith, I receive Your unprecedented favor as I serve You with my whole heart in Jesus’ name. Amen. — Joel & Victoria Osteen WITH A GIFT OF ANY AMOUNT UNPRECEDENTED FAVOR New CD/DVD resource WITH A GIFT $125 OR MORE SLIMLINE NLT BIBLE & DAILY JOURNAL Premium, Large-print Reference Bible and Daily Journal Plus: Unprecedented Favor You are subscribed to Today’s Word with Joel and Victoria as TYLERMOORE@yahoo.com.
