Turn you situation over to God because He can do more in a moment than you can do in a lifetime.
Joyce Meyer
Image
We must meditate on what God has done in our life instead of what we are still waiting on Him to do.
Joyce Meyer

People always want to know how you know. And knowing in your heart is very hard to describe. I think so often, we're trying to understand something with our mind. But, actually, the Bible teaches us that much of what God does in our life will be difficult to understand with the mind.

If you are tired of living on the beaten path that everyone else walks, venture into the woods. Some people would be afraid they would get lost, but a confident woman expects to have a new experience that might be outrageously wonderful.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Let's face it: None of us are ever going to get to the place in life where we have no more disappointments. We can't expect to be sheltered from every little thing. Disappointment is a fact of life--one that must be dealt with.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Your joy comes from how you think, the choices that we make in life.
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
Today we are going to talk about words. You know, words are containers for power. They carry creative or destructive power. They carry positive or negative power. We can choose our words and we should do it carefully.
Joyce Meyer

The way anything is developed is through practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice and more practice.
Joyce Meyer
Image
My hope is that God will have changed people's lives through me for the better.

Justified means just as if you've never sinned.
Joyce Meyer
Image
You're so caught up in grumbling, complaining, and seeing what's wrong that you have no energy or time to appreciate what's good.

Worry is a down payment on a problem you may never have
