Joel Osteen

What happened?

He got called into the house.

People ignored him.

God said, I have my eye on David.

People discounted him.

God saw his potential.

They looked on the outside.

God looked at his heart.

He saw David doing the right thing when the wrong thing was happening.

He saw him being faithful even when it looked like he wasn't going anywhere.

You too may feel like you're being overlooked, left out.

The people that should be for you should be cheering you on, doing just the opposite, discounting you, trying to push you down.

Don't worry, your time is coming.

God is watching you.

He sees your faithfulness, your dedication, your integrity.

Like David, you're about to be called into the house.

You're about to see doors open that you could never open.

You're about to see vindication where God honors you in front of people who were trying to make you look bad.

You're going to see new levels of influence where people that once disrespected you, didn't give you the time of day, now they look up to you.

Now they admire you, ask you for advice.
