Your value should not be determined by how somebody else has treated you.

Your worst day with God is still better than your best day without Him.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Too many Christians live their lives like slaves - to the devil - because they believe his lies more than they trust God.
Joyce Meyer
Image
We open the door for God to work by placing faith in His Word, and we open the door for Satan to work by placing faith in his word. He places thought in our minds that are not true, but can become true for us if they are believed.

If someone decides they're not going to be happy, it's not your problem. You don't have to spend your time and energy trying to cheer up someone who has already decided to stay in a bad mood. Believe it or not, you can actually hurt people by playing into their self-pity.

Humility may well be one of the most difficult of the fruit of the Spirit to be cultivated in us - and to maintain. That's because without humility, it's not likely that you will put your complete trust in God.

As believers, our joy and peace are not based in doing and achieving, but in believing. Joy and peace come as a result of building our relationship with the Lord.

Everything God ever asks you to do, even if it's difficult, He asks because He has something great in mind for you.

I think we need to get smart enough to do what's going to help us and not just continue to do things that are going to hurt us. It's pretty easy to read something or hear about it in a message, but it's that personal application of that where it's just you, God, and your problems, that are going to give you the power to get stronger and stronger.

We must remember we are stewards of what God has provided for us, not owners.

Contentment with life is not a feeling, but it is a decision we must make. Contentment does not mean that we never want to see change or improvement, but it does mean we can be happy where we are and will do the best we can with what we have. It also means we will maintain an attitude that allows us to enjoy the gift of life.
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.

The best way to get along with people is not to expect them to be like you.
Joyce Meyer

Ask God to fill your mouth with the words you need to say today. No issue is so small that it doesn't require God's wisdom.

Turn you situation over to God because He can do more in a moment than you can do in a lifetime.

When you take time with God and listen to His voice, He renews your strength and enables you to handle life.

The Bible has the answers to our everyday life. Many times people don't realize how practical it is.
