Joel Osteen - Build Your Altar

You can build an altar wherever you are: your car can become an altar, your office can be an altar, walking out in the park can become an altar. At the places that remind you who God is, when he does things that only he can do, don't just think that was nice, build an altar, acknowledge his greatness, thank him for his favor. God will bless you where you built altars.

When God sees you at the altar, when he hears you thanking him, praising him, declaring his goodness, that's when angels go to work, that's when doors will open, healing will come, favor is released.

My challenge to us is: build a lot of altars. Be aware of the goodness of God in your life. Take time to thank him every day. Look back at the great things he's done.

When you're constantly building altars, recognizing God's goodness, thanking Him for what He's done, that's not just affecting you, it’s affecting your children, your grandchildren. Be aware of God's goodness in your life.
