Joel Osteen Devotional for Today – January 25, 2025

TOPIC: Uncommon

God gave Daniel the special ability to interpret the meanings of visions and dreams. – Daniel 1:17, NLT.

Today’s Word

As a teenager, Daniel was taken from Judah into Babylonian captivity and put into training to serve the king. They tried to get him to compromise his faith, to fit in and become common, to forget about the God of Israel and start worshipping their idols. But Daniel refused to take the easy way out and be squeezed into that society’s mold. He chose to remain set apart to God for His service and to be uncommon, no matter what it might cost.

In doing so, God gave him uncommon favor and caused him to stand out above all the rest in the service of the Babylonian king. It doesn’t take much effort to compromise and do what everyone else is doing. A dead fish can float downstream; it takes a live one to swim upstream.

Be a Daniel and choose to be uncommon, to live by a higher standard, to honor God with your life. Uncommon obedience produces uncommon blessings, uncommon favor, an uncommon destiny. When you honor God, He will always honor you. He’ll take you places you couldn’t go on your own.
