Spiritual people don't float around all day on clouds of glory they live in the real world and deal with real issues in real ways.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Spending time with God is the key to our strength and success in all areas of life. Be sure that you never try to work God into your schedule, but always work your schedule around Him.
Joyce Meyer
Image
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
When I read the Bible, I see that we should have victory in our life and be overcomers, and I can't even control my temper. I'm impatient. I'm hard to get along with. I'm selfish and self-centered, and I don't seem to have any control over it.

If you don't like yourself, you're going to have a really hard time getting along with anyone else.

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.

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.

God doesn’t want us to live timid, shy, weak, wimpy, fearful, boring lives. He wants us to be bold, con dent and courageous, unafraid to try new things. And it never ceases to amaze me what God will do through a person who simply steps out in faith.

No matter what's going on in our lives, the victory is in refusing to quit.
Joyce Meyer
Image
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.
Joyce Meyer
Image
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.

Humble people ask for help.

Resist the need to be 'right' all the time or to always have the last word.
Joyce Meyer
Image
We need to put no confidence in the arm of flesh, but rather trust ourselves entirely to the arm of the Lord.
Joyce Meyer
Image
Yes, God does expect us to live holy, consecrated lives. But not even the best of our intentions can make it happen. Thankfully, He doesn't expect us to make ourselves holy. He just wants us to learn to depend on Him to make us holy.
Joyce Meyer

Grace keeps us from worrying because worry deals with the past, while grace deals with the present and future.

Obedience to God is the pathway to the life you really want to live.
