TOPIC: Hearts Will Turn
TODAY’S SCRIPTURE
“Take your flocks and herds and be gone; and oh, give me a blessing as you go.” Exodus 12:32, TLB
Joel Osteen Devotional 25th October 2022 MESSAGE
Chibuzor , when Moses told Pharaoh again and again to let God’s enslaved people go, Pharaoh wouldn’t listen. He didn’t respect Moses or pay him any attention. He dismissed Moses as second class. What’s interesting is that after the last plague, when Pharaoh finally decided to let the Hebrew people go, instead of dismissing Moses as not good enough, now Pharaoh recognized the hand of God on Moses. He saw the anointing and felt the power to where he asked Moses to bless him!
God knows how to change people. You don’t have to play up to them, or try to convince them to like you, or let them control and manipulate you in order to try to win their favor. No, walk in your anointing. Run your own race, always honoring God with excellence and integrity. God will turn the hearts of those who are against you and who disrespected you the most to ask for your blessing. It may take years, but they’re going to recognize the favor on your life.
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You that You are going to use the difficult people in my life to show me Your favor and bring glory to Your Name. Thank You that I don’t have to play up to anyone to get them on my side. I believe that You are turning the hearts of those who are against me to be for me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
