Today's Word | Joel Osteen Ministries: God Sees and Hears Mar 30, 2022 Today’s Scripture Mark 2:10–11, NKJV "But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins"--He said to the paralytic, "I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house." Today’s Word In the Scripture, four men carried a paralyzed man to see Jesus. When Jesus saw them, He said to the man, "Your sins have been forgiven." Some of the religious leaders were offended and began to murmur, "Who does He think He is? Only God can forgive sins." Challenged by His critics, Jesus said to them, "Which is easier to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,'or 'Arise, take up your bed and walk'" To prove to them that He was the Son of God, He turned to the paralyzed man and told him to rise up. The man stood up, perfectly well, and I'm sure the religious leaders nearly passed out. Jesus could have just forgiven the man's sins and moved on, but when His enemies murmured about it, Jesus healed him. When people are talking about you, trying to push you down and keep you in a dark place, don't worry--God sees and hears them. They're putting you in position for promotion, to be blessed in a greater way. Prayer for Today Father, thank You that Yo

A psalm of David. 1  Blessed are those who have regard for the weak;    the LORD delivers them in times of trouble. 2  The LORD protects and preserves them—    they are counted among the blessed in the land—    he does not give them over to the desire of their foes. 3  The LORD sustains them on their sickbed    and restores them from their bed of illness. 4  I said, “Have mercy on me, LORD;    heal me, for I have sinned against you.” 5  My enemies say of me in malice,    “When will he die and his name perish? ” 6  When one of them comes to see me,    he speaks falsely, while his heart gathers slander;    then he goes out and spreads it around.

I Hear His Whisper..."Trust my timing." : Rivers of pain and persecution will never extinguish this flame. Endless floods will be unable to quench this raging fire that burns within you. Everything will be consumed. It will stop at nothing as you yield everything to this furious fire until it won’t even seem to you like a sacrifice anymore. Song of Songs 8:7 TPT I Hear His Whisper . . . Trust my timing.   The days of completion are mine, not yours. I will complete my work in you in my perfect timing. Even as my ways are perfect, so my timing is perfect. For you have said, "It seems I am standing still and going nowhere." But I say over you, I am unfolding my glory upon you even as you wait on me.

You must trust that even when things seem silent, I am working on your behalf
