The Devilish Ministry of Joel Osteen
By Geri Ungurean
On December 10, 2018
Author of “Your Best Life Now” Joel Osteen is well known as a motivational speaker. But I had no idea of how Satan is using this man to completely mislead his congregation.
I don’t watch Osteen because I don’t need to be “motivated.” But a reader of my articles wrote to me yesterday about Osteen and was very angry at what she witnessed. She listens to him occasionally – just to see what he is up to.
I asked if she would send me a link to the sermon. She did, and after watching as much as I could stand, I realized that this man is truly a WOLF and is taking so many to hell with him.
I was enraged.
Here is part of the email sent to me:
“As I listened today, I was horrified to hear what sounded like him calling all who follow him to come out/away from those who refuse to be enlightened – who refuse to go onto the next level. He kept saying, very heretically, that “God wants you to attach yourself to someone who is higher up than you so you can benefit from their blessings.” He said that anyone who doesn’t want to advance to the next level (by attaching themselves to someone of a higher level, thus gaining some of their blessings) should be shunned because he wants you to have nothing to do with those who aren’t advancing to the next level.”
YES, brethren, you read that right. The unspoken reality is that Joel Osteen is saying to his congregation “Go and make more money so that you can bring me more money. And break off ties with the poor.” <hisssssssss>

Here is the sermon:
Brethren, I do hope that you are as outraged as I am. This man is a WOLF in the truest sense of the word. He is telling people to cut off relationships with people who are financially poor; and seek out the rich. WHERE is this found in the Word of God??
An Ungodly Pastor in my Life
My husband and I attended a Baptist church near our home years ago. I won’t go into the many unethical things this man did while he was the pastor, but for the sake of this article I will tell you this:
At a meeting of the Evangelism team, he told them NOT to evangelize in the trailer park because “We don’t want those kind of people in church.” He said that they had no money to give to the church.
Soon after that meeting, my husband and I left that church.

Read what Osteen says under the youtube version of his “Favor Connections” sermon:
“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!”
So, what my friend said about calling for people to be shunned was exactly what Osteen was asking. He was saying “Come away from poor people, and connect up with prosperous people.”
