Become a Better You

Author: Joel Osteen Publishing House: Free Press

Joel Osteen decided to put together a 90-day reading presentation of the encouraging principles in Become a Better You to help you gradually develop a habit of becoming a better you each day.


Daily readings from "Become a Better You" 90 devotions for improving your life every day. By Joel Osteen, Pastor of Lakewood Church.

Whether life is going well for us or collapsing right before our eyes, we all want to be better. We want to be more effective in our lives. We want to know God better; we want to be better spouses and parents, better lovers, better encouragers, better community leaders, better employees, and better bosses and managers. None of us gets up in the morning and says,

“You know, today I really want to do worse than I did yesterday!” No, God put something deep down inside us that evokes a desire to be more like Him. In our inner being, we hear a voice saying, You were born for better than this; you are meant to live at a higher level than you are currently. Don’t be satisfied with less. You can be better.

The question is: “How? What must I do to become a better me?”

Today, many people are developing a greater vision for their futures and are experiencing more of God’s blessings and favor. But even if you are living your best life now, it is important that you do not become stagnant. God always wants to increase us, to do more in and through us.

He always wants to take us deeper into self-discovery and then raise us to a higher level of living. He didn’t create us to be average. He doesn’t want us to settle for “good enough.” He wants us to keep stretching, to keep pressing forward into the next level.

In Become a Better You, my goal was to help you look inside yourself and discover the priceless seeds of greatness that God has placed within you. I showed you 7 keys that you can use to unlock those seeds of greatness, allowing them to burst forth in an abundantly blessed life.

These keys are not complicated or difficult; in fact, their sheer simplicity often causes them to elude many people’s notice. Nevertheless, they are 7 key principles that have helped shape me and continue to keep me expecting good things in my personal life, in my relationships, in my family, and in my career.


I know these principles work, because I have experienced them firsthand in my own life.

So I decided to put together a 90-day reading presentation of the encouraging principles in Become a Better You to help you gradually develop a habit of becoming a better you each day.

Let me remind you that these devotionals are not meant to be full treatments of passages of Scripture. I am usually highlighting a specific point from the Bible that will inspire wholehearted love and worship of God. Hopefully the slower pace of these devotional readings will encourage you to immerse yourself in God’s Word and see all the practical guidance God has to give you.

These daily readings from Become a Better You have been selected to emphasize the 7 keys that form the structure of the book. But I’ve added several features that I’m convinced will help you apply and live out the truth that God wants you to know. Each devotional includes:
 
• Scripture Reading to Become a Better You—these passages will sometimes relate directly to the key being described, and in other instances the Scripture reading will provide necessary background for accurately understanding the truth you are studying. Please don’t neglect these brief selections from God’s Word if you want to gain the most benefit from this book.

• Key verse—usually chosen from the Bible reading that expresses the theme of the devotional.

• Devotional Excerpt from Become a Better You—a couple of pages of lessons and stories that I believe will encourage and uplift you.

• Today’s Prayer to Become a Better You—some suggestions that will help you express your heart’s responses and set the stage for you to share your prayer requests, desires, gratitude, and fresh commitments to God. Feel free to adapt these prayers and make them

Here is the truth: Jesus Christ is Lord of life and Lord of all. - Jack Graham

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Jesus is the Lord of Life

Jack Graham
Jesus is the Lord of Life, and that's the topic, that's the theme of the Gospel of John, and certainly John chapter 10 which is one of the well-known passages in all of the Bible. Jesus had enemies. You know that, right? While He was loved and beloved by multitudes, many rejected Him.
All of it was done for you and me.  Considering that, it is incumbent upon us to have the Blessing which the Cross affords

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

The Blessing which the Cross Affords

Jimmy Swaggart
This is the first mention of the Cross, although in shadow, after the Fall. The Lord told Satan through the serpent that victory would come by the Seed of the woman. Ironically, woman has no seed, with the exception of One, Who was the Lord Jesus Christ.
That “Light” resides in Christ, for He said, “I am the Light of the world”

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Light which Redeems the Soul

Jimmy Swaggart
The darkness that was here prevalent was taken away only by the Spirit of God, as He moved upon the face of the waters. As someone has well said, The Moving of the Holy Spirit is the first sign of life.
Put your Faith in Him and what He has done for you at the Cross.

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

Beginnings are one thing, while endings are another!

Jimmy Swaggart
On this first day of a brand-new year, which is a new beginning of sorts, the Lord offers to every person a brand-new beginning in their life, irrespective as to what the past has been. Millions this year will make New Year’s resolutions, resolutions which invariably will not be kept.
The place where god puts you will not be perfect—even eden was exposed to the possibility of evil. But there is no better place to be than where god has set you down.

DAILY DEVOTIONAL

A Place Called Home

Colin S. Smith and Tim Augustyn
The book of genesis is part of the revelation god gave to moses at mount Sinai, so when it says eden was “in the east,” we are talking about a location somewhere east of Sinai.
