Quote

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.

Everytime you feed the flesh, you strenghten it. This is good if you are trying to build a good habit, but detrimental if you are trying to stop a bad habit. The way to kill the flesh is to starve it to stop feeding it.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Giving is just one way of expressing that God has been good to you and will continue to do so through your being good to others.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Until we accept and approve of ourselves, no amount of approval from others will keep us permanently secure.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Any day that we don't give up puts us one day closer to success!

Peter was the only one who walked on water besides Jesus, but he was also the only one who got out of the boat. Until you make a decision to believe, and then act on it, nothing will happen.
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.

Good intentions never change anything. They only become a deeper and deeper rut.
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.

When you are tempted to give up, your breakthrough is probably just around the corner.

God is speaking to us. But are we listening to Him? When our conscience begins to nudge us for whatever reason, we might have this low-level misery or uneasiness about whatever it is we've done or we're about to do. At times like this, it's wise to prayerfully consider whether we're offending God with our actions.

Before you judge someone else, stop and think about all that God has forgiven you for.
Joyce Meyer
Image
It's so easy to settle for less than God's best for us because we don't always feel like taking responsibility for our behavior or putting forth some effort to do what we need to do so we can accomplish great things for God and help people. But the cost of settling for less is actually harder than being completely obedient to God's will.

Peace is one of the most precious gifts God has promised His children.
Joyce Meyer
Image
We don't always help people by doing everything for them. That type of behavior can actually contribute to their problems because it helps then never take responsibility on their own.

You don't need to know what tomorrow holds all you need to know is the One who holds tomorrow.

Be it unto you, even as you believe. In God's economy, we believe first and then see.

Don’t waste another day of your life grieving over something that you cannot do anything about. Let God give you a new beginning. Your mistakes are not enough to stop God if you don’t let them.

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.

I've been saying for a couple of years now that people need to let God out of the Sunday morning box, that He doesn't want to just be with you for an hour or two on Sunday morning and then put back in His box to sit there until you have an emergency, but He wants to invade your Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

I can't very well be teaching one way and living my life another way. What I do in life must be consistent with the things I say. And the same goes for you.
