More quotes by Joyce Meyer
Our enemy, the devil, wants to control us, and his target is our will. The main way he tries to influence our will is through lying to us.
Joyce Meyer
I think happiness is a goal all of us can agree on. Let's face it - we all would like to be happy.
Joyce Meyer
I think there's more women that watch me than men, but I don't look at myself as just a minister to women. My ministry began that way, but I really feel like the Word of God is for everybody.
Joyce Meyer
If you can't learn to enjoy your life when you have problems, you may never enjoy it because we'll always have problems.
Joyce Meyer
It is sad that today many times people give up in the hard times and never get to enjoy the fruit of all their labor.
Joyce Meyer
We need a backbone, not a wishbone.
Joyce Meyer
It`s important to have a relationship with God. He's the only one that can get down inside of you and heal what needs to be healed inside.
Joyce Meyer

Joyce Meyer
Forgiveness is manifested mercy it is live in action - not love based on a feeling, but love based on a decision, an intentional choice to obey God.
Joyce Meyer
Don't try to change people. It won't work, and they will end up resenting you. Only God can change people!
Joyce Meyer
Because my dad abused me, I was determined to never let a man tell me what to do. God clearly showed me that I needed to be a submissive wife if I wanted to be effective in ministry. The truth is, if we don't learn to submit to authority, we won't ever learn to submit to God.
Joyce Meyer
Unity increases power.
Joyce Meyer
Everywhere you look you see people searching for love but they're looking in the wrong places. God is love, and they will never find what they're looking for until they find Him.
Joyce Meyer
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
Take a firm grasp on God’s sovereignty and trust His love even when you don’t understand His purpose.
Joyce Meyer
Self Pity is the most miserable party to go to, because, in case you haven't noticed, you're the only one who is there.
Joyce Meyer
Why wouldn’t we run to God. He’s sooo good. God’s not mad at anybody. He just wants to help us be the best that we can be.
Joyce Meyer
Love listens to the other person and searches for clues on ways to serve, bless and lift up that person.
Joyce Meyer
Stop labeling people just because they're not like you.
Joyce Meyer
Sometimes when you've had a long series of disappointing things happen, you can get into the very bad habit of just expecting more of what you've already had.
Joyce Meyer
