As a global society, we do not have to agree, endorse or condone the lifestyle choices of others. However, history has taught us that we equally cannot and should not excuse those who would hide behind religion or misuse God's word to justify bigotry and persecution.

I've been studying the Bible for a long time. I remember that after the first five years or so of diligently studying the Word, I didn't feel like I had made any progress. There were a lot of things in my life that were out of order, and I didn't feel like I was getting anywhere.

The Holy Spirit showed me that when I put up walls to keep others out I also wall myself into solitary place of confinement.

God is with you, and He'll help you make spiritual progress-strengthening and encouraging you to keep on keeping on during rough times. It's easy to quit, but it takes faith to press on to victory.

We worship God with our entire life - with every decision we make and everything we do

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.

What do you do when disappointment comes? When it weighs on you like a rock, you can either let it press you down until you become discouraged, even devastated, or you can use it as a stepping-stone to better things.

We don't think there's something wrong with one- year-old children because they can't walk perfectly. They fall down frequently, but we pick them up, love them, bandage them if necessary, and keep working with them. Surely our heavenly Father can do even more for us than we do for our children.

If we're really honest with ourselves, most of us will admit that we want to impress people, and this is what's causing us to do what we do.
Joyce Meyer
Image
If we know God is for us, then it shouldn't matter how we feel, or what other people think of us.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Contentment with life is not a feeling, but it is a decision we must make.
Joyce Meyer
Image
There's a deceptive sin that can keep us from walking in love: pride. It's deceptive because when you have pride, you're usually too proud to admit it. I know this because I used to have teachings on pride and they didn't sell well.

There's no happier person than a truly thankful, content person.

Prayer is simply talking to God like a friend and should be the easiest thing we do each day.

Home Run portrays the church in its beauty--true life transformation through real and honest relationships with one another and with Jesus.
Joyce Meyer
Image
We can never make ourselves better by trying... praying more or longer, studying more of the Word, performing good works, etc. Don't get me wrong... it's not bad to do any of these things. In fact, it's good. It's just that doing them in God's power is the only way those things will have any real and lasting effect in our lives.

Humility is the most beautiful virtue that we can develop.
