😇 Nobodies and Somebodies – Joel Osteen Daily Devotional (July 3, 2024)

Today’s Scripture: Isn’t it obvious that God deliberately chose men and women that the culture overlooks and exploits and abuses, chose these “nobodies” to expose the hollow pretensions of the “somebodies”? 1 Corinthians 1:27, MSG

Today’s Word: You may think you can never accomplish your dream because you feel limited by what you don’t have or by what you didn’t get. But God is not bound by natural laws, by company policies, by people’s prejudices. He controls the universe. The dream He put in your heart is not dependent on you having all the qualifications, the experience, the training, or people being for you. Sometimes God will let the odds be against you on purpose. He’ll let you be over your head, at the back of the line, and the least likely. That’s a setup. That’s a sign that a reversal is coming. “God chooses the nobodies to confound the somebodies.” He loves to take the unqualified and cause them to excel. He loves to take disregarded people and cause them to shine. He can change people’s minds. He can cause them to want to be good to you. They may not even know why. It’s God shining His favor on you, pushing you into your purpose. Get ready for some reversals. Things are about to shift in your favor.
