You know, it's one thing to say you believe. It's another thing to have your faith tested severely and come out on the other side of it still believing God.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Stay active. Read the Word. Worship with other believers. Continue to give. Keep learning and growing. Your faith will be unleashed!
Joyce Meyer
Image
The more we keep our mind on ourselves and our wants, the more unhappy we become. God wants us to love others and meet their needs.
Joyce Meyer
Image
If you don't love yourself, it's impossible for you to love others. You can't give away what you don't have.
Joyce Meyer
Image
God doesn't do good things for us because we are good and we deserve them. He does good things for us because He is good and loves us.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Go home, and let all your relatives off the potter's wheel. You are not the potter!
Joyce Meyer
Image
It is God's will to bless us, but not necessarily on our terms. Sometimes what we think would be a wonderful blessing would not bless us at all.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Nobody can ever say that being negative ever helped them at all - not in any way.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Average is very acceptable in our society but I don't think the angels are applauding. If you are determined to be excellent, to not back out of it, you will reap a harvest in your life.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Courage means to keep making forward progress while you still feel afraid!
Joyce Meyer
Image
We clearly see in God's Word that anything He tells us to do, He will give us the ability to do it. But do we really believe it? Do we want to believe it? It's easier to come up with excuses for why we can't do things that are hard or that we really don't want to do.

Have God make a message out of your mess.
Joyce Meyer
Image
I used to have a real problem with self-pity. Every time the devil would throw a pity party, I would attend.
Joyce Meyer
Image
There's a deceptive sin that can keep us from walking in love: pride. It's deceptive because when you have pride, you're usually too proud to admit it. I know this because I used to have teachings on pride and they didn't sell well.
Joyce Meyer
Image
It isn't necessary to trust God when we have full understanding and knowledge of what He is doing on our behalf... Trust is needed in those times when, for whatever reason, we are not hearing from God as clearly as we would like.
Joyce Meyer
Image
God's grace will never be available to you to become another person. He created to be you - the best you you can be! Forget about trying to be someone else.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Remember God is not surprised by your inabilities, your imperfections, or your faults. He has always known everything about you that you are just now finding out, and he chose you on purpose for himself.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Maybe you don't just have one Goliath. Maybe you have his whole family!
Joyce Meyer
Image
I firmly believe that usually, the person who hurt you doesn't realize what they've done or how much it hurt you. So, continue to pray for the person or situation that caused your pain and anger. Ask God to give you understanding about why they did what they did.

God wants to speak to you on a one-to-one basis every day. He wants to lead you to the good things He has in store for you.
