The Secret to Solving Problems | Joel Osteen

About this sermon

How do I get God to move in my difficult situation? The definitive answer is to stop focusing solely on your own struggle and start helping someone else solve theirs. When you sow a seed of kindness, time, or resources into another person’s need, you set a miracle in motion for yourself. While you work on their problem, God works on yours. 🙏 Need Prayer?
