You Are Stronger Than You Think

An Introduction from Joel Osteen

We all face pressure in life and times when we could feel overwhelmed.

The obstacle looks too big, we never dreamed we’d be dealing with a sickness, or we thought the trouble at work would be over by now. It’s easy to feel as though it’s too much, and we can’t take it anymore.

But the Scripture says, “God will not let you be tempted beyond what you can endure, but He will make a way of escape so that you will be able to bear it.”

When God designed you, He took into account everything you would face— every struggle, every unfair situation, every setback— and He put in you the strength, the courage, and the determination to withstand it. When you feel overwhelmed, as though the pressure is too much, it’s because you’re stronger than you think. You haven’t discovered all that’s in you.

You’ll never know how strong you really are until you face pressure that you’ve never faced. It may seem unbearable, but the fact that God allowed it means you can handle it.

Now don’t live with a can’t‑do mentality when you have can‑do power. Get in agreement with God. If you do this, I believe and declare that you’re about to discover strength, courage, ability, and favor like you’ve never seen. You’re not just going to survive, you’re going to thrive. You’re going to overcome every obstacle, defeat every enemy, and accomplish every dream.
