Stop giving someone else the job of making you happy.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Treat everyone you meet as if they have infinite value because in God’s eyes they do
Joyce Meyer
Image
We often say God is never late, but generally He isn’t early either. Why? Because He uses times of waiting to stretch our faith in Him and to bring about change and growth in our lives.
Joyce Meyer
Image
It's very inexpensive to give a compliment.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Jesus didn't die for us so we could pretend to be something we're not.
Joyce Meyer
Image
It's amazing to me the number of people who will volunteer to help at church but won't lift a finger to help at home!
Joyce Meyer
Image
I believe many people feel like God is mad at them. One day I put a post on Facebook that said, 'God is not mad at you.' Within a few hours, we literally had thousands of positive responses from people saying things like, 'That is exactly what I needed to hear today.' Obviously, this is a message we need to hear.

A relationship with Christ changes your heart. It's not about your head. It changes your heart. Jesus comes to live in your heart, and even if a person does good works, but they do them without Christ, most of the time, their motives are wrong for why they do them.
Joyce Meyer
Image
The flesh, or human nature, is generally lazy and self-centered.
Joyce Meyer
Image
People who don't know the true character of God - who don't believe He is merciful, gracious and slow to anger - can never have a close, personal, intimate relationship with Him.
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
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
Image
The Israelites' slavery in Egypt is the equivalent of our slavery to sin. God sent Moses to deliver them from bondage, and He sent Jesus Christ to set us free.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Complain and remain. Praise and be raised.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Jesus paid a tremendous price for us so we could have abundant life. He willingly took all of our sin on Himself and gave His life on the cross so we could be forgiven and have new life in Him.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Giving in to fear alters God's best plan for your life.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Feeling sorry for ourselves is the most useless waste of energy on the planet. It does absolutely no good. We can't let our circumstances or what others do or don't do control us. We can decide to be happy regardless.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Your joy comes from how you think, the choices that we make in life.
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
Happiness is not a feeling, it is a choice. To be happy, one must choose to be happy, not respond to a circumstance that now controls your happiness.
