When doubt comes against us, we have to lift up the shield of faith. We do this when we open our mouth and say what God's Word says, rather than grumbling and complaining about the problem.

More quotes by Joyce Meyer
Instead of concentrating on your problems and getting discouraged, focus on God and meditate on His promises for you. You may have fallen down, but you don't have to stay down. God is ready, willing and able to pick you up.
Joyce Meyer
Positive minds full of faith and hope produce positive lives.
Joyce Meyer
I just really believe people have to get hungry. I think maybe what we need to do, instead of trying to stuff our beliefs down people's throats, is just pray for them to really be hungry and to see their neediness.
Joyce Meyer
People often ask me how I keep my priorities straight in life and I tell them that it is done by constantly straightening them out!
Joyce Meyer
Before you judge someone else, stop and think about all that God has forgiven you for.
Joyce Meyer
If someone you know makes a bad decision or uses bad judgment, it doesn't mean you have to allow that to alter your attitude. Why should you allow anyone else's bad decisions to send you into a tailspin of misery?
Joyce Meyer
Even though God loves us, we still have a problem: sin. It's important for us to learn how to confront sin and overcome it, because while God loves sinners, He hates sin. And He hates it because of what it does to us and how it keeps us from the abundant life Jesus died to give us.
Joyce Meyer
Instead of being critical of people in authority over you and envious of their position, be happy you're not responsible for everything they have to do. Instead of piling on complaints, thank them for what they do. Overwhelm them with encouragement and appreciation!
Joyce Meyer
Life is sometimes very complicated, but we can purposely learn to enjoy the simple yet powerful and beautiful things God has created!
Joyce Meyer
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.
Joyce Meyer
Religion is a very dangerous thing. By that I mean being so caught up in rules and regulations and not focusing on the thing that matters most- a personal relationship with God.
Joyce Meyer
There's a part of you - the born-again part, your spirit - that's dead to sin. That's why it bothers you now when you sin. The 'wilderness' part of you - your soul - is your unrenewed mind, out-of-control emotions, and stubborn will.
Joyce Meyer
Mercy is the stuff you give to people that don't deserve it.
Joyce Meyer
We must remember there are different seasons in our lives and let God do what He wants to do in each of those seasons.
Joyce Meyer
You would be better off having nobody than the wrong somebody. (On marrying for the wrong reasons.)
Joyce Meyer
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
God doesn’t want us to live timid, shy, weak, wimpy, fearful, boring lives. He wants us to be bold, con dent and courageous, unafraid to try new things. And it never ceases to amaze me what God will do through a person who simply steps out in faith.
Joyce Meyer
The Bible says that Christians are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. On the job, in the grocery store, even among unsaved friends and family members, God's people are there to bring seasoning to an unsavory situation.
Joyce Meyer
If selfishness is the key to being miserable, then selflessness must be the key to being happy!
Joyce Meyer
Giving in to fear alters God's best plan for your life. So use the power of God's Word to do what He wants you to do...even if you have to do it afraid! The rewards are great.
