Joel Osteen - The Rewards of Integrity

In this message, Joel reminds us about the power of a life lived with integrity. Integrity is the foundation that a successful life is built on. God is looking for people who are willing to live at a higher standard. Often, challenges in life are integrity tests—will you compromise when no one is watching; do you live differently behind closed doors? A life of openness and honesty is a life that God can bless. When you live with integrity, God can trust you with great things.

Proving your character begins in the small things—in how you talk to your family, how you honor your commitments, the way you spend your time at work. Make the decision to live in complete integrity.

‘Yellow Vests’ open a new front in the battle: Popular referendums

Many of the "Yellow Vests" who hit the streets again on Saturday wielded signs with the acronym RIC – for "Citizens' Initiative Referendum" – as demonstrators demanded popular votes be held to allow citizens to vet government policy proposals. In a list of demands released in late November, the Yellow Vests ask that any policy proposal garnering 700,000 signatures trigger a national referendum to be held within a year. The RIC is one item on a list of 42 measures being demanded by the Yellow Vests.

A 2008 constitutional amendment provided for holding a referendum if a measure had the support of one-fifth of the members of Parliament and the backing of one-tenth of registered voters. But the citizens' initiative has never been used, despite the launch of a website dedicated to listing the public proposals currently under debate. FRANCE 3 and FRANCE 24’s Peter O’Brien explain how a Citizen’s Initiative Referendum could come about.

Joel Osteen - Favor Connections

In this message, Joel encourages you to develop relationships with people who will propel you into your destiny. Whenever you are connected with people who are living out the dreams you have for your life—who are successful, who are blessed—your vision for your life will begin to expand. You will be called higher.

Sometimes, you will have to let go of old relationships, of old habits and mindsets that are keeping you limited if you are going to reach all that God has for you. Be encouraged during these times. You are making room for what God wants to do. You are rising higher, you are moving towards your destiny. Surround yourself with people who will challenge you, who will not allow you to remain in mediocrity. You are an eagle, designed to soar above the crowd!

God promises in Joel 2:25 to repay us for all our troubles. It may not have been fair what you’ve gone through, but don’t worry, payback is coming. God is going to make up for the wrongs that were done. You’re going to come out of your situation and pain loaded with blessings and increase.

Joel Osteen - Be Vulnerable

Joel Osteen - Be Vulnerable 

I want to talk to you today about being vulnerable. It's easy to go through life trying to impress people, that we have it all together, and it's good to carry ourselves with confidence, but sometimes we have a need to keep up our image so much that, instead of being real, we put on a mask and start pretending. We can't let people see we have weaknesses. We struggle in these areas. We're people of faith. We're supposed to have all the answers.

It’s easy to go through life trying to impress people, to show them that we’re strong, that we have it all together. But if you’ll humble yourself, empty out your pride, your fear, your doubts and get real, God will help you to grow. You’ll come up higher.
