| You’re in Good Company |

                   | 
                  
| TODAY’S SCRIPTURE | 
| “...but Jesus refused to answer.” | 
| (Luke 23:9, NLT) | 
| 
                   | 
                  
| TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria | 
| 
                   
In
 scripture, many times people would come against Jesus and criticize 
Him. Many times it says, “Jesus answered them not a word.” He simply 
didn’t respond to His critics. He didn’t try to convince them to change 
their minds. He didn’t get upset because somebody was talking about Him.
 No, He just ignored it. 
When
 people come against you and they’re jealous, trying to make you look 
bad, trying to discourage you, remember you’re in good company! Jesus 
was probably criticized more than anyone else. I love the fact that He 
didn’t try to explain Himself. He didn’t try to make everyone understand
 Him. He just stayed focused on what He was called to do. He simply ran 
His race. 
Friend,
 Jesus set the example for you and me. We don’t have to try to win the 
approval of others. We have to understand that not everyone is going to 
understand us. Our focus should be on following God’s leading and let 
Him order our steps. The next time someone criticizes you, remember the 
example of Jesus. Overlook it, don’t get offended, and keep moving 
forward in the destiny God has for you!

| 
                   | 
                  
| A PRAYER FOR TODAY | 
| Father, today I release every person who has criticized me or tried to discourage me. I choose to forgive them; I choose to turn away from that distraction. I choose to focus on You and the blessings You have in store for me in Jesus’ name. Amen. | 
| — Joel & Victoria Osteen |
