persecution. Joyce Meyer

thinking correctly, great transformation will take place in your life. Joyce

At school I pretended I
had a normal life, but I felt lonely all the time and different from everyone

after-school activities, go to sports events or parties or date boys. Many times
I had to make up stories about why I couldn’t do anything with my classmates. Joyce
Meyer

thoughts. Joyce Meyer

life turned inside out. Joyce Meyer

God has given you, and follow your unique individual bent. Don’t try to follow
anyone else’s program. Stick with God’s. Joyce Meyer

time. Joyce Meyer
Because God is with you,
there is no problem, no debt, no trial, and no obstacle worth stressing out
about. Joyce Meyer
Because my dad abused me,
I was determined to never let a man tell me what to do. God clearly showed me

moldable in the hands of God so He can easily move and reshape you into what He

the outside, you must first get up on the inside. Joyce Meyer
Before you do anything,
you must quickly check with your spirit to see if the thing you are about to do

promptings, and you will grow in the same discernment that Jesus walked in. Joyce
Meyer
Before you judge someone
else, stop and think about all that God has forgiven you for. Joyce Meyer

it’s time well spent because it brings a great reward. Joyce Meyer

it yours, O God. Joyce Meyer

excuses. When we make excuses, we lie to ourselves and continue bad habits. Joyce
Meyer
Complaining is dangerous
business. It can damage or even destroy your relationship with God, your
relationships with other people, and even with your relationship with yourself.
Joyce Meyer
Compliment people. Magnify
their strengths, not their weaknesses. Joyce Meyer
Compromise means to go
just a little bit below what you know is right. It’s just a little bit, but
it’s the little foxes that spoil the vine. Joyce Meyer
Confident people do not
concentrate on their weaknesses, they develop and maximize their strengths. Joyce
Meyer
Consider a tree for a
moment. As beautiful as trees are to look at, we don’t see what goes on
underground – as they grow roots. Trees must develop deep roots in order to
grow strong and produce their beauty. But we don’t see the roots. We just see
and enjoy the beauty. In much the same way, what goes on inside of us is like
the roots of a tree. Joyce Meyer
Consistency is key. Be
serious about your commitment and stick with it. Joyce Meyer
Contentment with life is
not a feeling, but it is a decision we must make. Joyce Meyer

said its prayers and has decided to go forward anyways. Joyce Meyer

they should do – not what they feel like doing. Joyce Meyer
Courage is not the absence
of fear; it’s action in the presence of fear. Keep moving forward in faith. Joyce
Meyer
Courage means to keep
making forward progress while you still feel afraid. Joyce Meyer
Cultivate an attitude of
hope. Joyce Meyer
Dance. Laugh. Sing.
Rejoice. Joyce Meyer
Dare to be different! God
wants to take us, with all of our weaknesses and inabilities, and transform us,
by working from the inside out, to do something powerful in this earth. If
we’re going to overcome insecurities and succeed at being ourselves, we can’t
continue to be afraid of what everybody else may think. We can’t continue to
allow others to fit us into their mold. We are different! We are unique! God
created us this way to accomplish His purposes here on earth. Joyce Meyer
Day by day God is changing
me … I am not controlled by my sinful nature. I am controlled by the Spirit

alive, never die. Joyce Meyer

Your countless blessings. Thank You for Your unconditional love. Thank You for

life miserable. God is alive and has a plan for you! Joyce Meyer

everyone you meet today. Forgive anyone who has hurt you, and leave unresolved
circumstances in God’s hands. Joyce Meyer
Decide today to put an end
to the frustration, discouragement and stress that drains your energy. Joyce
Meyer
Depression begins with
disappointment. When disappointment festers in our soul, it leads to
discouragement. Joyce Meyer
Determination keeps us
going when the going gets tough. Joyce Meyer
Did you know … that you
believe what you say more than what anybody else says? Joyce Meyer
Did you know there’s a
difference between being busy and being fruitful? Did you ever stop to think
that just being busy – running around in circles all day but not accomplishing
anything – is the same as wasting your time? It’s frustrating to expend so much
energy and time and not have any fruit from your effort! Joyce Meyer
Difficulties will
eventually give way to victory, and good times will become better times. Joyce
Meyer
Dig into God’s Word. It’s
His love letter to you. Joyce Meyer
Discipline enables you to
think first and act second. Joyce Meyer

not your enemy. Joyce Meyer
Do I ever doubt? Oh sure!
I deal with doubt all the time. I have to choose to believe God in every
situation. I remind myself all the time to get out of fear, get out of doubt,
and get back into faith. Joyce Meyer
Do it afraid. Joyce
Meyer
Do what you can do, and
don’t be frustrated by what you cannot do. Joyce Meyer
Do what you don’t want to
do, get what you want to get. Joyce Meyer
Do what’s right, first.
Don’t sit around and wait for someone else to do the right thing first. Joyce
Meyer
Do you feel disappointed
because something you planned didn’t work out. If so, you can get re-appointed
today. In God, there are never any dead-ends, just detours. Don’t ever give up.
Just keep trying until you succeed. Joyce Meyer
Do you know something? The
minute that blood sacrifice was accepted, Jesus was the first human being that
was ever born again. Now that was real – it happened when He was in Hell. Joyce
Meyer
Do yourself a favor and
forgive. Joyce Meyer
Doing things right, or in
an excellent manner, always takes more time than merely doing it quickly just
to get it done and check it off your list. But I’m always happy I did it. Joyce
Meyer
Don’t be afraid of change,
because it is leading you to a new beginning. Joyce Meyer
Don’t be afraid of life.
Jesus came that we may have life and have it to the full. Joyce Meyer
Don’t be afraid to wait
with faith and patience, and not feel pressured to have an immediate answer
from God. Joyce Meyer
Don’t be too concerned
about what others think of you. It’s what you think about yourself that
matters! Joyce Meyer
Don’t beat on yourself
about something for which God has forgiven you. Joyce Meyer
Don’t believe everything
you think! Joyce Meyer
Don’t build walls and shut
people out of your life. To act as if another does not exist is a mean and
cruel weapon. Joyce Meyer
Don’t complain. The
Israelites wasted forty years murmuring and complaining in the wilderness, when
they could have just obeyed God and entered into their Promised Land. Joyce
Meyer
Don’t depend on other
people as the source of your happiness or approval. Joyce Meyer
Don’t ever be discouraged
with yourself because you have not arrived at success, but instead be pleased
that you are pressing toward it. Joyce Meyer
Don’t ever be jealous of
anyone else. Just ask God what you want and trust Him to give it to you the
right way at the right time. And trust Him not to give it to you if what you’re
asking for is not God’s best for you. Joyce Meyer
Don’t ever quit on God,
because He will never quit on you. Joyce Meyer
Don’t ever waste a day.
Once time goes by, you never get it back. Joyce Meyer
Don’t forget to pray your
way through the day. Joyce Meyer
Don’t give in to excuses
that can keep you from really living the best life God has for you. Joyce
Meyer
Don’t give up … the finish
line is closer than you think it is! Joyce Meyer
Don’t give up on the
people you love. Your patient love and faithfulness may be exactly what they
need to make a complete turnaround. Joyce Meyer
Don’t judge other people.
For example, if you want God’s anointing to be on you for parenting, you need
to be careful not to criticize other parents. Joyce Meyer
Don’t just learn from
God’s Word, but believe it will change your life. Joyce Meyer
Don’t just let the devil
use your mind as a garbage dump. Joyce Meyer
Don’t just pray for God to
open doors, pray for God to close doors in your life that need to be closed. Joyce
Meyer

the back door of Heaven. Throw your life wide open and say, “God, here I am.” Joyce
Meyer
Don’t let someone who has
a bad attitude give it to you. Joyce Meyer
Don’t let the devil keep
you unhappy. Joyce Meyer
Don’t let the way another
person treats you determine your worth. Joyce Meyer
Don’t let your feelings be
a God to you. Joyce Meyer
Don’t let your mind be a
garbage dump for the devil. Joyce Meyer
Don’t live like there’s no
tomorrow because tomorrow always comes. Joyce Meyer
Don’t miss out on today by
living in yesterday. Joyce Meyer
Don’t mourn bad decisions
– overcome them with good ones. Joyce Meyer
Don’t plug your phone in
more than you plug yourself into God. Joyce Meyer
Don’t punish everybody
else for what some people have done to you. Joyce Meyer
Don’t reason in the mind,
just obey in the Spirit. Joyce Meyer
Don’t run to the phone,
run to the Throne. Joyce Meyer
Don’t seek to be a people
pleaser. Don’t compromise what you know is right in your heart to gain the
approval of others. The only approval you need is the Lord’s, and you already
have that. Joyce Meyer
Don’t settle for anything
less than the best God has to offer you. Joyce Meyer
Don’t spend the rest of
your life mourning something you have lost. Go forward and don’t look back. Joyce
Meyer
Don’t spend your time
chasing blessings. Chase God and the blessings will chase you. Joyce Meyer
Don’t take the people that
love you for granted … being loved is a beautiful gift from God. Joyce Meyer
Don’t try to change
people. It won’t work, and they will end up resenting you. Only God can change
people. Joyce Meyer
Don’t underestimate the
power of your words today. Line up your language with the heart of God, and
enjoy the sweet, delightful healing it brings! Joyce Meyer
Don’t wait around waiting
for God to do something that He’s already given you the power to do. Joyce
Meyer
Don’t wait until
everything is perfect before you decide to enjoy your life. Joyce Meyer
Don’t wait until you feel
like it. Go out and love on purpose. You will be amazed at the joy it releases
in your soul! Joyce Meyer
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. Joyce Meyer
Don’t waste one more day
of your life in self-pity. Joyce Meyer
Don’t waste the energy God
has given you on stress. Save it for living and enjoying life! Joyce Meyer
Don’t waste today
regretting the past or dreading the future. Enjoy this day because it is a gift
from God! Joyce Meyer
Don’t waste your time
being upset about something you can’t change. Begin again, and do it better
this time. Joyce Meyer
Dread, which is closely
related to fear, steals the ability to enjoy ordinary life and makes people
anxious about the future. It keeps them from looking forward to the next day,
the next month, or the next decade. Joyce Meyer
During a storm, hope gives
us the ability to look at things as they are and still be confident that
something better is coming. Joyce Meyer
Each time we cooperate
with God, we take one more giant step forward. Because when God asks us to
change, it means that He always has something better to give us – more freedom,
greater joy, and greater blessings. Joyce Meyer
Early on in my life, I had
a broken soul. I was abused by my father, abandoned by my mother and ended up
in a destructive first marriage. By the time I was 23, I was broken in my soul.
I didn’t know how to think right. I felt wrong about everything. But God
stepped into my life, and I came out on the other side and didn’t even smell
like smoke. Joyce Meyer
Education levels the
playing field, allowing everyone to compete. Joyce Meyer
Embrace your life, count
your blessings, and don’t complain about what you don’t have. Joyce Meyer
Embrace your little
victories. Small successes breed large ones. Joyce Meyer
Emotions can be
misleading. Joyce Meyer
Encourage everyone you
meet with a smile or compliment. Make them feel better when you leave their
presence and they will always be glad to see you coming. Joyce Meyer
Even if your fragmented
life looks like an abandoned battlefield, Jesus can reshape all the pieces of
your past into something beautiful. Joyce Meyer
Even the strongest fear is
no match for our God! Joyce Meyer
Even though God loves us,
we still have a problem: sin. It’s important for us to learn how to confront
sin and overcome it, because while God loves sinners, he hates sin. And He
hates it because of what it does to us and how it keeps us from the abundant
life Jesus died to give us. Joyce Meyer
Even when everybody else
tells us it’s impossible, if we will step out in faith and follow God, He will
give us the grace to go forward. Joyce Meyer
Even when I don’t know
what to do, I do know God and I believe He is working. Joyce Meyer
Even when there seems to
be no way, with God there is always a way. Joyce Meyer
Every day ask God for
favor. He can open doors for you that no one else can open. Joyce Meyer
Every day is a gift from
God. Learn to focus on the Giver and enjoy the gift! Joyce Meyer
Every day that goes by
puts us closer to the day when Christ shall return. Joyce Meyer
Every new day in Christ is
a new opportunity for something incredible to happen. Joyce Meyer
Every person who confesses
that Christ Jesus is Lord, repents of their sin and gives their heart to God is
a child of God and belongs to Him. And in Christ, we are made right with God,
we are His righteousness, and we have the power of Christ in us to live right. Joyce
Meyer
Every step you take is
important, but perhaps the most important step is the first one. Joyce Meyer
Every storm is not in the
forecast. Joyce Meyer
Every time we get really
upset, it takes a lot of emotional energy, tires us out, messes with our
health, steals our joy, and still doesn’t change one thing. Joyce Meyer
Every time you feel like
doing the wrong thing, but choose to do the right thing, you are growing! Joyce
Meyer
Every time you look in the
mirror, remember that God created you and that everything He creates is
beautiful and good. Joyce Meyer
Every time you open your
mouth, your thoughts parade up and down the words you speak. Joyce Meyer
Everybody wants to be an
overcomer, but nobody wants anything to overcome. Joyce Meyer
Everybody’s always looking
for a word, here’s a word: LOVE. Walk in love, that will keep you busy for the
rest of your life. Joyce Meyer
Everyone knows how to
smile. It’s one of the greatest gifts God has given us. A smile makes people
feel good, and people look so beautiful when they smile. Joyce Meyer
Everything God tells us to
do is for our good. Whether its direction you get in His Word or something He’s
specifically put in your heart for your situation in life, the absolute best
thing you can ever do is obey Him promptly and completely. Joyce Meyer
Everything in life is
subject to change, except for God. Joyce Meyer
Everything in your life
should involve God. Don’t just give Him five minutes in the morning. Live for
Him. Joyce Meyer
Everything we do is to be
offered to the Lord; and if done so with a pure heart of love, it becomes holy.
Joyce Meyer
Everything we run away
from has power over us. Everything we go through we conquer. Joyce Meyer
Everything you do is a
seed that you sow. Seed bad, harvest bad. Seed good, harvest good. And the list
goes on and on. Joyce Meyer
Excellence – take what you
have and do the BEST with it! Joyce Meyer
Excellence is going the
extra mile. Joyce Meyer
Expect God to do something
great! Joyce Meyer
Expect good things. Expect
them. Get your “Expectors” out of the back of the closet, dust them off and
start expecting good things in your life. Joyce Meyer
Expect something good to
happen to you today. Joyce Meyer
Extremely religious,
legalistic people have a criticism or judgment about everyone and everything.
They just have a way of bringing people down with what they say. Joyce Meyer
Failing at a thing doesn’t
make you a failure. You are a failure when you quit trying. Joyce Meyer
Failures won’t defeat me. Joyce
Meyer
Faith always has
unanswered questions. Joyce Meyer
Faith is a decision we
make about where we are going to put our trust. Joyce Meyer
Faith is having a positive
attitude about what you can do and not worrying at all about what you can’t do.
Joyce Meyer
Faith is not the price
that buys the blessings of God. It’s the hand that reaches out and receives it.
Joyce Meyer
Faith is sometimes a
fight, and we can’t live by what we feel, we’ve got to live by the Word of God.
And I’m telling you, if you refuse to give up, your time of breakthrough will
come! Joyce Meyer
Faith is the only thing I
know that is stronger than fear. Joyce Meyer
Faith means that you have
peace even when you don’t have all the answers. Joyce Meyer
Faithfulness is not doing
something right once, but over and over and over again. Joyce Meyer
F-E-A-R has two meanings:
Forget everything and run or Face everything and rise. The choice is yours. Joyce
Meyer
Fear is a dead-end but
faith always has a future. Joyce Meyer
Fear is a spirit that
produces a feeling. Joyce Meyer
Fear is simply faith in
what Satan says. Joyce Meyer
Fear tries to get us to
give up, but faith takes us all the way through to victory. Joyce Meyer
Fear will try to keep you
from taking that first step. Don’t give in to fear. Do it afraid. Joyce
Meyer
Feed your faith and your
fears will starve to death. Joyce Meyer
Feel the fear and do it
anyway. Joyce Meyer
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
Fellowshipping with God
early in the morning is one sure way to begin enjoying every day of your life. Joyce
Meyer
Fill each day with
fellowship with God, good choices, healthy foods, and lots of activity. Joyce
Meyer
Fill your thoughts with
good. Joyce Meyer
Find joy in the small
things. Joyce Meyer
Find ways to celebrate
your progress instead of mourning excessively over your mistakes. Joyce
Meyer
Five minutes of
communication can save a year’s worth of turmoil and misunderstanding. Joyce

away and you will always discover that your own smiles will always be in great
supply. Joyce Meyer
Focus on the good habit
you want to do, not the bad habit you don’t want to do. Overcome the bad with
good. Joyce Meyer
Focus on your potential
instead of your limitations. Joyce Meyer
Forgive quickly. The
quicker you do it, the easier it is. Joyce Meyer
Forgiveness is manifested
mercy. It is live in action – not love based on a feeling, but love based on a
decision, an intentional choice to obey God. Joyce Meyer
Forgiveness is not a
feeling – it’s a decision we make because we want to do what’s right before
God. It’s a quality decision that won’t be easy and it may take time to get
through the process, depending on the severity of the offense. Joyce Meyer
Forgiveness is not a
one-time thing that happened the day you received Christ. It is an everyday
thing, for the rest of your life. Joyce Meyer
Forgiveness is nothing
more and nothing less than an act of self-healing and an act of
self-empowerment. Joyce Meyer
Freedom is not doing
everything you want to. Freedom is not having to do what you don’t want to do. Joyce
Meyer
Freedom is not letting
your yesterday affect your today. What you were is not what you are. Joyce
Meyer
Frustration is a sign I am
acting independently. The more you try your own way, the tighter the doors will
stay closed. Joyce Meyer
Gain control over what you
can, and try not to stress about what you can’t. Joyce Meyer
Get the help you need.
Refuse to live any longer pressed down under a burden of guilt and
condemnation. Joyce Meyer
Get up every day, love
God, and do your best. He will do the rest! Joyce Meyer
Getting organized in the
normal routines of life and finishing little projects you’ve started is an
important first step toward realizing larger goals. If you can’t get a handle
on the small things, how will you ever get it together to focus on the big things?
Joyce Meyer
Getting stress out of your
life takes more than prayer alone. You must take action to make changes and
stop doing whatever is causing the stress. You can learn to calm down in the
way you handle things. Joyce Meyer
Give God your mess and let
it become your message. Joyce Meyer
Give your circumstances
over to Jesus and be confident that He’s got it all under control. Your life
will change dramatically once you unleash your faith. Joyce Meyer
Give yourself permission
to lighten up and don’t be so intense about your own perfection. Joyce Meyer
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 to do … even if you have to do it afraid! The rewards are great! Joyce
Meyer
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
Go beyond what you feel
like doing and do what’s right. Every time you do what is right when you don’t
feel like it, you are growing. Joyce Meyer
Go over, under, around, or
through, but never, never give up. Joyce Meyer
God already knew your
weaknesses, every flaw you would have, every time you would fail, and He still
said, “I want you.” Ephesians 1:5 declares He foreordained you to be adopted as
His own. God is your daddy! With Him on your side, things are bound to work out
all right in the end. Joyce Meyer
God can completely restore
us – no matter what we’ve done or been through. He wants to give us double for
our trouble! Joyce Meyer
God can deliver your mind
from the desert and help you enjoy the journey to the promised land! Joyce
Meyer
God can do a miracle with
every little thing you give Him. Joyce Meyer
God can do exceedingly,
abundantly, above and beyond, but you’ve got to know who you are in Christ.
You’ve got to know that He loves you. Joyce Meyer
God can do more for you in
a minute than you can do in a lifetime. Joyce Meyer
God can do more in us in
five minutes than we could do in twenty-five years of trying. Joyce Meyer
God can open doors for you
that no man can open! Joyce Meyer
God can take better care
of you than you could ever take of yourself. He could open doors for you that
you could never open. He can close doors that will keep you out of trouble. God
can give you favor everywhere you go. Joyce Meyer
God can take even your
biggest mistake in life and make it work out for good if you will trust Him. Joyce
Meyer
God cannot lead you if you
aren’t willing to follow. Joyce Meyer
God cares about every tiny
detail of your life. Joyce Meyer
God cares about everything
that concerns you. So feel free to talk to Him about anything. Joyce Meyer
God cares. God loves you
very much and wants to help you, but you need to ask Him to. A man told me
recently that when he feels overwhelmed, he lifts up one hand toward Heaven and
says, “Come get me, Jesus.” God hears the faintest cry of your heart, so stop
trying to do everything on your own and ask Him for help. You may not think
that God cares about something as simple as your health, but He does. He cares
about everything that concerns you … the big as well as the small. He wants you
healthy and whole, and He is willing to help, if you’ll just let Him. Pray to
Him to help you find the spiritual strength you need to make any necessary
changes in your life. God’s grace is always available. As we choose to do what
is right and lean on Him to give us strength, His power enables us to follow
through and experience victory. Joyce Meyer
God created us to please
Him, which sets us free from the need to please people. Joyce Meyer
God desires that we be
truthful with Him, truthful to others, and truthful with ourselves. Joyce
Meyer
God does not love us
because we deserve it. He loves us because He is kind and wants to. Joyce
Meyer
God doesn’t do good things
for us because we are good and deserve them, but because He is good and loves
us. Joyce Meyer
God doesn’t do things
halfway. He goes all out! When God does something, it’s not just barely enough,
mediocre or lukewarm. Joyce Meyer
God doesn’t love me any
more or less because I had some work done on my face. You know, I prayed about
it a long, long, long, long, long time, because there again, I wouldn’t want to
do anything that I felt was going to be offensive to God. Joyce Meyer
God doesn’t love us
because we’re good, He loves us because He is good. Joyce Meyer
God doesn’t stop being
good because the world is full of evil. Joyce Meyer
God doesn’t tell you to do
hard things so He can stand back and laugh and watch you struggle. He asks you
to do things that He knows are going to work out to your good in the end. Joyce
Meyer
God doesn’t want us to
live timid, shy, weak, wimpy, fearful, boring lives. He wants us to be bold,
confident 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. Joyce
Meyer
God doesn’t want you to
just talk about victory, He wants you to have it in your daily life. Joyce
Meyer
God forgives our sins and
remembers them no more. So you can stop remembering what God has forgotten. Joyce
Meyer
God forgives us and
remembers our sin no more. Therefore, stop remembering what God has forgotten. Joyce
Meyer
God gives us a double
blessing for our trouble. Joyce Meyer
God gives us hopes and
dreams for certain things to happen in our lives, but He doesn’t always allow
us to see the exact timing of His plan. Joyce Meyer
God has a big eraser, and
He uses it to keep our records clean and clear. Joyce Meyer
God has a good plan for
your life. You haven’t missed the boat and you aren’t too late. Joyce Meyer
God has a perfect timing
for all things, and He will not be rushed, so settle down and enjoy the wait. Joyce
Meyer
God has a plan for you and
He has heard your prayers; you may not realize how close you are to your
breakthrough. Joyce Meyer
God has a plan for you and
His plan is much better than yours. So give yourself to Him and see what
happens. I promise you won’t be disappointed. Joyce Meyer
God has an antidote for
everything that tries to poison our soul. Joyce Meyer
God has an appointment
with your breakthrough. And when that time comes, God will not be late. Joyce
Meyer
God has called me to be
me, and you to be you. Joyce Meyer
God has equipped you to
handle difficult things. In fact, He has already planted the seeds of
discipline and self-control inside you. You just have to water those seeds with
His Word to make them grow! Joyce Meyer
God has joyful moments
planned for us each and every day. With Him, life is always an adventure! Joyce
Meyer
God has never once had a
negative thought about you. Joyce Meyer
God has not always given
me what I wanted, but He has always met my needs. Joyce Meyer
God has planted greatness
in you. Let today be the beginning of a great adventure as you step into the
gifts He’s given you. Joyce Meyer
God has uniquely gifted
you to help someone. Be available as God opens doors for you to do so. Joyce
Meyer
God has your comeback
planned, and it’s going to be glorious. Joyce Meyer
God hears and sees, and
you are not alone in your struggles. Remain firm and stable, for God has your
deliverance planned. Joyce Meyer
God is a God of hearts. He
sees and cares about our attitude of heart even more than our performance. Joyce
Meyer
God is a great God! I want
to encourage you to expect great things from Him. Joyce Meyer
God is able to do
anything. All things are possible with Him, but we must not quit praying. Joyce
Meyer
God is always working
things out for my good. He has chosen me for His purpose. Joyce Meyer
God is bigger than every
issue you will ever have to face, and you can do whatever you need to do
through Christ who strengthens you. Joyce Meyer
God is changing you day by
day and you can still enjoy yourself while He is working! Joyce Meyer
God is faithful and He
will fulfill every promise. Joyce Meyer
God is faithful to give us
His love, grace and wisdom to reah out and be a blessing to others. And when we
do, we end up receiving more joy and peace than we had before. Joyce Meyer
God is leading you to
something bigger and better. Joyce Meyer
God is more concerned
about your heart than your performance. If your heart is right, your
performance will eventually catch up. Joyce Meyer
God is never too busy for
you. Joyce Meyer
God is not glorified by
our suffering, but He is glorified when we have a good attitude during
suffering. Joyce Meyer
God is not looking for
someone with a perfect performance, but someone with a right heart. Joyce
Meyer
God is not mad at you. Joyce
Meyer
God is on your side. “For
the Lord takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the humble with
salvation and adorn the wretched with victory” (Psalms 149:4). If you never
face trials, you will never have to exercise your faith. But even when facing
hard times, you should not dread life. Isaiah 8:13 says, “The Lord of Hosts—regard
Him as holy and honor His holy name [by regarding Him as your only hope of
safety], and let Him be your fear and let Him be your dread (lest you offend
Him by your fear of man and distrust of Him). If you dread life and fear
people, you are not trusting the Lord to save you. Keep your reverential fear
and awe of God; dread displeasing Him, but don’t fear anything else. If God is
for you, who can be against you? “No, in all these things we are more than
conquerors through Him who loved us” (Romans 8:37 NIV). Joyce Meyer
God is rarely ever early,
but He is never late according to His timetable. Relax, and believe, that your
times are in His hands. Joyce Meyer
God is so in love with
you! Joyce Meyer
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 are about to do. At times like this, it’s wise to prayerfully
consider whether we’re offending God with our actions. Joyce Meyer
God is the Champion at
bringing people from a place of destruction to a place of total victory. As
they reach that place of victory, they become trophies of His grace. And they
are set on the display as a fragrant reminder of God’s goodness. Joyce Meyer
God is with you, and He
will 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. Joyce Meyer
God is working on my
problems, and I can wait patiently because His timing is perfect. Joyce
Meyer
God knew you! He knew what
He was getting when He drew you into a relationship with Himself. He already
knows the things you will do wrong in the future. God is not as nearly hard to
get along with as you think He is. Joyce Meyer
God knows everything
you’ve been through and He’s able to help and heal you. Joyce Meyer
God knows me completely,
and yet He loves me. Joyce Meyer
God knows the mess we’re
in when He calls us. His light shines greater through ‘cracked pots’ than it
does through those who have it all together. Joyce Meyer
God loves me
unconditionally. Joyce Meyer
God loves us because that
is His nature. He is love (see 1 John 4:8). He may not always love everything
we do, but He does love us. God’s love is the power that forgives our sins,
heals our emotional wounds and mends our broken hearts (see Psalms 147:3).
God’s love is unconditional; it is based on Him, not us! Once you realize that
God loves you regardless of what you have or haven’t done, you can experience
incredible breakthrough. You can quit trying to earn His love and simply
receive it and enjoy it. Joyce Meyer
God loves us too much to
leave us alone in our messes and not keep bugging us to do things His way. Joyce
Meyer
God loves you … He sees
you … He understands your pain. You do matter, and the world is a better place
because you’re here! Joyce Meyer
God loves you as much at
this moment than He ever will in your whole life. Joyce Meyer
God loves you as much on
your worst day as He does on your best day. Joyce Meyer
God loves you because He
wants to. There is nothing you can do about it. He just loves you, and if you
want to miss out on it, that’s up to you, but God is going to love you anyways.
Joyce Meyer
God loves you so much …
always has, and always will. Joyce Meyer
God loves you so much, and
with His help you can control your tongue and be led by the Spirit daily. Joyce
Meyer
God meets all of my needs
abundantly. Joyce Meyer
God never meant for us to
strive and struggle. Joyce Meyer
God never promised a
trouble-free life. Joyce Meyer
God never promises an easy
life, but He does promise a blessed life. Joyce Meyer
God never tells us to do
anything without giving us the ability to do it. Joyce Meyer
God not only sees what you
have done, He sees what you will do with His help. Joyce Meyer
God not only sees where
you are right now, but He also sees where you can be. Joyce Meyer
God plants dreams in
people’s hearts. But many people do not continue all the way to the end in
order to follow Him to the fulfillment of that dream. Joyce Meyer
God uses the junk in other
people to pull the junk out of you. Joyce Meyer
God wants to “do life”
with you. That means He wants to be involved in every area, on your heart and
mind, all day long. As you give Him your attention, He will speak to your heart
and guide you with His wisdom. Joyce Meyer
God wants to heal you
everywhere you hurt. Joyce Meyer
God wants to help us … He
loves us … we are His children. But He will not force His help on us at any
time. He sees us when we struggle and fight and complain our way through
things. And I believe it breaks His heart, when all we have to do is ask Him for
help. Joyce Meyer
God wants to set you free
from battles in the mind and foreboding thoughts, and heal you of addictive
thought patterns and vain imaginations that exalt themselves above the
knowledge of God. Joyce Meyer
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
God wants to take you on
the greatest journey of your life. Joyce Meyer
God wants to teach you how
to rest in Him. Everything you do—raising your children, being a good husband,
being a good wife, going to work, fulfilling God’s call on your life—it all has
to be done from a position of rest. Joyce Meyer
God wants to use you to
make other people happy! And the happier you make others, the happier you will
be because you reap what you sow. Joyce Meyer
God wants us to be totally
dependent on Him, and suffering seems to bring us to that point. Joyce Meyer
God wants you to be
delivered from what you have done and what has been done to you. Both are
equally important to Him. Joyce Meyer
God wants you to enjoy
your life now, not when. Joyce Meyer
God wants you to trust Him
to bring victory in every area of your life. By His grace, you can! Joyce
Meyer
God was serious about me,
but there was a time when I wasn’t serious about Him. I finally got tired of
having a mediocre life where I was miserable all the time, so I got serious
with God. Joyce Meyer
God will bring you to your
Promised Land. But first, you have to let go of what lies behind. Joyce
Meyer
God will give us peace,
but we must first give Him our worries. Joyce Meyer
God will give you the
power to have peace in the midst of the storm. Joyce Meyer
God will help us get where
we are going, but He can’t drive a parked car. Joyce Meyer
God will help you be all
you can be, but He will never let you be successful at becoming someone else. Joyce
Meyer
God will meet you where
you are and do something great if you let Him. Joyce Meyer
God will recompense us
double for all the trouble we went through, because He loves justice. Isaiah
61:7-8 Joyce Meyer
God will take care of us
and give us grace to have joy in the midst of any situation. Joyce Meyer
God will work through our
weaknesses and do absolutely jaw-dropping, amazing things in and through us. Joyce
Meyer
God works according to the
law of gradual growth. So don’t be discouraged if your progress seems slow. Joyce
Meyer
God, I don’t know what to
do about this situation, but I can’t fix it on my own. If You want me to do
something, I ask You to show me. Meanwhile, I’m going to trust You and enjoy my
life while You work on my problems. Joyce Meyer
God, I don’t want to waste
my time chasing cheap substitutes. You are the only one who can satisfy. Show
me how to daily find my true delight and satisfaction in You and only You. Joyce
Meyer
God’s first line of
defense – and offense – for every situation is prayer. Joyce Meyer
God’s grace and love will
help you respond with gentleness and compassion when you’re tempted to return
anger for anger. It’s better to throw water on the spark than fuel the fire. Joyce
Meyer
God’s grace is amazing!
We’re saved by grace – God’s undeserved favor – and we live by grace, which is
also God’s power in our lives to do what we could never do in our own strength.
And it’s all because God is love, and He loves us unconditionally, constantly
and completely. Joyce Meyer
God’s grace will never be
available to you to become another person. He created you to be you – the “best
you” you can be! Forget about trying to be someone else. Joyce Meyer
God’s love for me is
perfect because it’s based on Him and not on me. So even when I failed, He kept
loving me. Joyce Meyer
God’s love is fresh and
new each morning. Joyce Meyer
God’s love is His free
gift to you, and He will heal you everywhere you hurt. Joyce Meyer
God’s love never changes. Joyce
Meyer
God’s not looking for
ability, He’s looking for availability. Joyce Meyer
God’s perfect,
unconditional love and faithfulness are what brought me through all of the
healing, restoration and breakthroughs I desperately needed so I could become
what He created me to be! Joyce Meyer
God’s plan for your life
is good. When you trust Him completely, you can experience total peace and
happiness. Joyce Meyer
God’s power has given us
everything we need to live an amazing godly life. Joyce Meyer
God’s timing seems to be
His own little secret. The Bible promises us that He will never be late, but I
have also discovered that He is usually not early. It seems that He takes every
available opportunity to develop the fruit of patience in us. Joyce Meyer
God’s unconditional love
is a very difficult concept for people to accept because, in the world, there’s
always payment for everything we receive. It’s just how things work here. But
God is not like people! Joyce Meyer
God’s Word is a border for
my life. As long as I stay within the guidelines laid out in Scripture, I’ll
have what I need to do what I need to do. God is faithful and true to His Word.
Joyce Meyer
God’s Word is like
medicine we need for healing. Joyce Meyer
Good character is not
developed through ease and convenience, but through doing now what needs to be
done no matter how difficult it is. Joyce Meyer
Good intentions never
change anything. They only become a deeper and deeper rut. Joyce Meyer
Good or bad, clean or
dirty, lost or found, every part of your life can be given to God. Joyce
Meyer
Good thinking begins with
a choice. Joyce Meyer
Grace equals ability. God
gives us grace to match our call. When we do our own thing, we do it on our
own. When we follow His leading, He always supplies the grace and the energy to
do what He’s calling us to do. Joyce Meyer
Grace is a gift. Joyce
Meyer
Grace is God doing for us
what we could never do and what we will never deserve. Joyce Meyer
Grace is God’s power to
help us do whatever it is we need to do. Joyce Meyer
Grace is not the freedom
to sin; it is the power to live a holy life. Joyce Meyer
Grace is the power of the
Holy Spirit coming to us free of charge to enable you to do with ease what you
could never do on your own with any amount of struggle and effort. Joyce
Meyer
Grace justifies sinners,
but it never justifies sin. Joyce Meyer
Grace keeps us from
worrying because worry deals with the past, while grace deals with the present
and future. Joyce Meyer
Gratitude is the shortest
path to happiness. Joyce Meyer
Grow fruit, not just
leaves. Joyce Meyer
Growth requires facing
where you’re at so you can go to the next level. Joyce Meyer
H.O.P.E. = Have Only
Positive Expectations
H.O.P.E. = Hold On, Pain Ends
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. Joyce Meyer
Harboring unforgiveness is
like drinking poison and hoping your enemy will die. Joyce Meyer
Have God make a message
out of your mess. Joyce Meyer
Having a rough day? Place
your hand over your heart. Feel that? It’s called purpose. You’re alive for a
reason. Don’t give up. Joyce Meyer
He hears your prayers. Joyce
Meyer
He is always ready and
waiting to change us from the inside out. Joyce Meyer
He rescued me because He
delighted in me. Joyce Meyer
He wants to lead you to
the good things He has in store for you. Joyce Meyer
He will speak. He will
lead. He will guide. He will make His plans and desires clear. But He will not
force His will on us. We must consciously and deliberately choose to follow
Him. Joyce Meyer
Helplessness is a place of
power if you’re helpless before God. Ask God for help in everything you do. Joyce
Meyer
Here’s some life-changing
news: God will never reject you! Joyce Meyer
Hey you! You’re beautiful
and gorgeous in your own way. Don’t let anyone make you feel ugly, because
you’re perfect just the way you are. Joyce Meyer
His grace is enough. Joyce
Meyer
Hope is favorable and
confident expectation. It’s an expectant attitude that something good is going
to happen and things will work out, no matter what situation we’re facing. Joyce
Meyer
How one’s life turns out
is not dependent on what people do to us or what they don’t do for us. Joyce
Meyer
How we think about
ourselves is vitally important to our own self-image and affects every area of
our lives. Joyce Meyer
Humble people ask for
help. Joyce Meyer
Humility is not something
that comes naturally. But it is a cardinal virtue that should be pursued more
than any other. Joyce Meyer
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. Joyce Meyer
I am a disciplined and
self-controlled person. Joyce Meyer
I am bold and courageous! Joyce
Meyer
I am content and
emotionally stable. Joyce Meyer
I am dead to sin and alive
unto righteousness. Joyce Meyer
I am difficult to offend. Joyce
Meyer
I am free! Joyce Meyer
I am loved. Joyce Meyer
I am not going to let my
emotions manage me, I am going to manage them. Joyce Meyer
I am not promising that
God will give you everything you want. There are times when we want things that
God knows would not be good for us. Joyce Meyer
I am radically, insanely,
nutty in love with Jesus! Joyce Meyer
I believe confidence is
all about being positive concerning what you can do – and not worrying over
what you can’t do. A confident person is open to learning, because she knows
that her confidence allows her to walk through life’s doorways, eager to discover
what waits on the other side. She knows that every new unknown is a chance to
learn more about herself and unleash her abilities. Joyce Meyer
I believe many people feel
like God is mad at them. God is not mad at you, He is madly in love with you. Joyce
Meyer
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 the message we need to hear. Joyce Meyer
I believe one of the best
things you can do for an angry person is to show them by example that there is
a better way to live and behave. Joyce Meyer
I believe that a trusting
attitude and a patient attitude go hand in hand. You see, when you let go and
learn to trust God, it releases joy in your life. And when you trust God,
you’re able to be more patient. Patience is not just about waiting for something
… it’s about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting. Joyce Meyer
I believe that everyone
experiences depression to some degree at some time in their lives. And there
are probably millions of people who live with a low level of sadness and
heaviness day in and day out. Joyce Meyer
I believe we live in a
love-starved society. Everywhere you go there are probably people who haven’t
had the right kind of love in their lives. Joyce Meyer
I can do whatever I need
to do in life through Christ. Joyce Meyer
I can honestly tell you
that without God I would not be who I am today. He has done such an amazing
work in my life and I want everyone to have the same freedom. Joyce Meyer
I can tell you from
experience that God’s help and presence in our lives is vital. He is the Author
of all true success and everything that is good – without Him, we can do
nothing of true value. Joyce Meyer
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. Joyce Meyer
I consider wisdom
supernatural because it isn’t taught by men – it’s a gift from God. Joyce
Meyer
I didn’t really understand
the importance of little things. I didn’t really understand that it was the
little foxes that spoil the vine. And if we’re not faithful in little things,
that God will never be able to make us ruler over great things. Joyce Meyer
I don’t just pray for God
to open doors, I also pray for God to close doors. Joyce Meyer
I don’t need to do
something important to be important … I am important because God loves me and
He sent Jesus to die for me. Joyce Meyer
I don’t think even ungodly
people realize what a society would be like that had no godly influence at all.
Joyce Meyer
I don’t think there’s
anyone who would say they don’t want or need more of God power in their life. Joyce
Meyer
I encourage you to be a
person who is not afraid of responsibility. In meeting resistance, you will
build your strength. If you only do what is easy, you will always remain weak. Joyce
Meyer
I encourage you to focus
on relationship with Jesus rather than the rules of religion. Joyce Meyer
I encourage you to form a
habit of going to God in prayer the moment anything troubles you. Joyce
Meyer
I enjoy being a blessing
to others. Everything I lay my hand to prospers and succeeds. Joyce Meyer
I felt like life was
ordering me around rather than me ordering my life, and I knew something was
wrong. Joyce Meyer
I got kicked out of my
church and lost all my friends, but I realized that I had to obey God and not
man. Joyce Meyer
I have discovered that God
will take my mistakes and turn them into miracles, if I continue to trust
confidently in Him! Joyce Meyer
I have hidden Your Word in
my heart, that I might not sin against You (Psalms 119:11). Joyce Meyer
I have learned from
personal experience that putting trust in God means there will be some
unanswered questions. That was a hard lesson for me because I naturally want to
understand everything … to know what’s going on so I can feel like I’m in
control. Joyce Meyer
I have learned that I
really do have discipline, self-control, and patience. But they were given to
me as a seed, and it’s up to me to choose to develop them. Joyce Meyer
I have to be willing to
finish what I start. God uses committed people who aren’t led by emotion. It’s
easy to be excited in the beginning when something is new, but the ones who
cross the finish line are the ones who hang in there when no one else is
excited anymore. Joyce Meyer
I just really believe
people have to get hungry. I think maybe what we need to do, instead of us
trying to stuff our beliefs down people’s throats, is just pray for them to
really be hungry and see their neediness. Joyce Meyer
I just think overall
there’s not as many female ministers than there are male ministers. Joyce
Meyer
I know from personal
experience how damaging it can be to live with bitterness and unforgiveness. I
like to say it’s like taking poison and hoping your enemy will die. And it
really is that harmful to us to live this way. Joyce Meyer
I like gifts. I like to
give them and I like to get them. Joyce Meyer
I like to talk to myself
ahead of time so when temptation comes, I’ve already made up my mind that I
have the victory! Joyce Meyer
I like to work and am a
focused person. Joyce Meyer
I live in the present and
enjoy each moment. Joyce Meyer
I love people and enjoy
helping them. Joyce Meyer
I make mistakes every day.
I’m not perfect in my behavior, but I want to be and that’s what God is after …
a heart that wants to be. Joyce Meyer
I might not be where I
want to be, but thank God I’m not where I used to be. I’m okay and I’m on my
way! Joyce Meyer
I need your help, Lord, to
face the truth about myself. It’s time to stop blaming my problems on my past
and on other people, and to meet them head-on with the power of Your Word.
Empower me to take responsibility and to change for the better. Joyce Meyer
I pray while driving. I
pray while working, and relaxing. Joyce Meyer
I pursue peace with God,
myself and others. Joyce Meyer
I put God first in my
life. Joyce Meyer
I rescued you because I
(God) delighted in you. Joyce Meyer
I spent most of the early
years of my walk with God focused on what was wrong with me. Most of us
probably do that, hoping to change ourselves. Joyce Meyer
I tell people, and it’s
the truth, I could sit in my garage for a week and it won’t make me a car. And
you can sit in church till your bottom is flat and that won’t make you a
servant of Christ. Joyce Meyer
I think happiness is a
goal all of us can agree on. Let’s face it – we all would like to be happy. Joyce
Meyer
I think the perception of
peace is what distracts most people from really having it. Joyce Meyer
I think there’s more women
that watch me than men, but I don’t look at myself as just a minister to women.
My ministry began that way, but I really feel like the Word of God is for
everybody. Joyce Meyer
I trust God completely,
there’s no need to worry. Joyce Meyer
I used to have a real
problem with self-pity. Every time the devil would throw a pity party, I would
attend. Joyce Meyer
I used to let other
people’s struggles affect my happiness. If they weren’t happy, there was no way
I was going to be happy. The opposite was also true: If I wasn’t happy, I
didn’t want anyone around me being happy. Joyce Meyer
I used to worry about
every little thing, trying to figure out every problem. Well, I realize now how
foolish that I was. I was no more in control of my life than the man on the
moon. Joyce Meyer
I want my love for Jesus
to be reflected in the way I show love for others, even those who may be
difficult to love. If I can soften one hard heart with the love of God, maybe
the person will soften another’s heart with love, then that one will reach out
to others, and so on and so on … And soon we’ll have a love revolution! Joyce
Meyer
I want the world to know
I’m totally committed to a living Savior who lives and breathes and walks in
us. Joyce Meyer
I want to dedicate the
rest of my life to spreading the love of Christ. Because God has done so much
for me and has given me this platform to speak into millions of lives, I feel
it is my duty. Joyce Meyer
I want to encourage you to
place yourself totally into God’s hands and allow Him to be the Manager of your
life. Joyce Meyer
I want to let you in on a
little secret: I don’t always feel like I’m a success. That’s right. There are
plenty of times when I feel like I’ve just totally messed up and failed to
connect with the people I’m trying to communicate with. Joyce Meyer
I want to look my best for
God. So many people have the attitude that if you’re a Christian you’ve got to
dress bad, wear an old color, do not do anything to your hair, have nothing.
It’s no wonder that Christianity is not very attractive. I mean, how many
people do you know in a Western culture that’s going to go, “Yeah, give me some
of that.” Joyce Meyer
I want you to know how
good God is and that your struggle is worth it. Your journey is worth it. Don’t
give up! Don’t give up! Joyce Meyer
I was in a terrible mess
in my childhood. Joyce Meyer
I was in my late thirties
when my eyes were opened to truth in God’s Word that showed me I wasn’t living
the abundant life Jesus died for me to have. I had a very negative mindset and
was miserable most of the time because of the abuse I had experienced throughout
my childhood. Joyce Meyer
I was tormented with guilt
for years and years. In fact, it was so bad that if I didn’t feel wrong, I
didn’t feel right! Joyce Meyer
I will expect great
things! Joyce Meyer
I will not live in fear. Joyce
Meyer
I will rise to the
occasion. Joyce Meyer
I will seek God first and
trust Him to provide my needs. Joyce Meyer
I wonder how many
decisions we make every day. I believe it’s probably hundreds. We decide
whether or not to get out of bed, what we will eat, what we will do, what we
will think about, what we will say … and on and on. Joyce Meyer
I wonder how many times
people give up just before a breakthrough – when they are on the very brink of
success. Joyce Meyer
I wonder how many whales
swallowed me up before I finally said, “God is God, and I might as well do
things His way” (Jonah 1:17). Joyce Meyer
I would rather stay
positive and get fifty percent good results, than stay negative and get one
hundred percent bad results. Joyce Meyer
I’m amazed sometimes by
the Christians who don’t really believe that God wants to help them and bless
them. Joyce Meyer
I’m going to hope, believe
and step out on the promises of God. Joyce Meyer
I’m just telling you, God
permit things in our lives sometimes for reasons that we do not understand yet
because of the spiritual level that we’re on. We can’t have any understanding
of it, because we’re not at a place of spiritual growth yet where we understand
the deeper things of God. Joyce Meyer
I’m not responsible to
make everybody like me; I’m responsible to be the unique person God created me
to be. Joyce Meyer
I’m nothing without You,
but everything in You. Joyce Meyer
I’m only going to stand
before God and give an account for my life, not for somebody else’s life. If I
have a bad attitude, then I need to say there’s no point in me blaming you for
what’s wrong in my life. Joyce Meyer
I’m putting God first. Joyce
Meyer
I’m ready to say “I’m
sorry”. Joyce Meyer
I’m sure most parents read
to their children to explain what certain things mean. So books are a good way
to convey a message to anybody. Everybody reads. Joyce Meyer
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. Joyce Meyer
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. Joyce Meyer
I’ve discovered that when
we take time to renew our minds with God’s Word, we learn how to think like God
thinks, say what God says, and act like He wants us to act. Joyce Meyer
I’ve learned that life is
tough, but I’m tougher. Joyce Meyer
I’ve learned that usually,
the less I know about other people, the better off I am. Joyce Meyer
I’ve learned through my
relationship with God that He’s not expecting me to be perfect. He wants me to
do my best to be in His will and take steps of faith as He leads me, through
His Word and the promptings He speaks to my heart. Joyce Meyer
I’ve taught a lot about
prayer over the years and how it is really just talking to God. Joyce Meyer
If God asks you to do
something hard, it’s only going to make things better. Joyce Meyer
If God be for us, who can
be against us? Joyce Meyer
If God can’t get you to
obey Him concerning your money, He won’t get to anything else you’ve got. Joyce
Meyer
If God changes your heart,
be willing to change your plans. Joyce Meyer
If God has placed you in a
situation, He is going to give you a special grace to be there. Joyce Meyer
If Jesus could satisfy a
hungry crowd, just imagine what He could do for your hungry soul. Joyce
Meyer
If Satan can defeat you in
your thoughts, then he can defeat you anywhere else. Joyce Meyer
If selfishness is the key
to being miserable, then selflessness must be the key to being happy! Joyce
Meyer
If shame is attacking you,
it’s time to remember the truth: God loves you, and if you’ll believe in,
adhere to, trust in and rely on Him, He will take your shame away. Joyce
Meyer
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. Joyce Meyer
If someone has offended
you, start sowing forgiveness. You may need some yourself someday. Joyce
Meyer
If someone you know makes
a bad decision or uses bad judgment, it doesn’t mean you have to allow that to
alter your attitude. Why should you allow anyone else’s bad decisions to send
you into a tailspin of misery? Joyce Meyer
If the only place we feel
God’s victory is in church, then we have a problem. Joyce Meyer
If we are hungry enough
for God, we will find a way into His Presence. We should be so hungry for the
Presence of God that we absolutely will not go out of our house or tackle any
kind of project until we have spent some time with Him. Joyce Meyer
If we are not thinking,
hoping or asking for anything, we are cheating ourselves. We need to think BIG
thoughts, hope for BIG things, and ask for BIG things! Joyce Meyer
If we are to receive the
blessings God wants to bestow upon us, we must be willing to give Him the
messes in our lives. Joyce Meyer
If we continue to believe
God and place our trust in Him, bad things ultimately give way to better
things. Joyce Meyer
If we didn’t struggle
through some things, we would never develop the strength and stamina we need to
survive in this world. Joyce Meyer
If we do our best, God
will do the rest. Joyce Meyer
If we live a
self-directed, self-motivated, self-centered life, always needing to get our
own way, then we’re going to be miserable. In fact, many times we believe it’s
our problems that are making us unhappy when, in reality, it’s because we’re
focused on ourselves! Joyce Meyer
If we make right spiritual
decisions-deciding to put God first in all things-then the rest of our
decisions will be easier. Joyce Meyer
If we must constantly
hurry to get everything done, then we are doing too much. Joyce Meyer
If we want constant
victory, we need to take God out of our “emergency only” box and invite Him
into our everyday lives. Joyce Meyer
If we want to be like
Jesus, we need to love others with the same kind of gracious, forgiving,
generous, unconditional love He extends to us. Joyce Meyer
If we want to pour out
God’s love into the lives of our children, we must first receive it for
ourselves. Joyce Meyer
If we will do what we can
do, God will do what we cannot do. Joyce Meyer
If we’re not actively
doing what is right, it becomes very easy for the devil to get us to do what is
wrong. Joyce Meyer
If we’re really honest
with ourselves, most of us will admit that we want to impress people, and this
is what is causing us to do what we do. Joyce Meyer
If you accept what people
call you, you will start to believe it. Find your identity in Christ, not in
what others say. Joyce Meyer
If you act on your faith,
your feelings will catch up. Joyce Meyer
If you allow God’s Word to
shape your thoughts, it will also shape your life. Joyce Meyer
If you are accused of
being a Christian, there should be enough evidence to convict you. Joyce
Meyer
If you are angry at
anyone, let it go right now and be happy today! Joyce Meyer
If you are facing a new
challenge, or being asked to do something that you have never done before,
don’t be afraid to step out. You have more capability that you think you do,
but you will never see it unless you place a demand on yourself for more. Joyce
Meyer
If you are faithful to
take small steps day after day, one day you’ll look back and be amazed at how
far you have traveled. Joyce Meyer
If you are going to love,
then you also have to be open to getting hurt and being disappointed. Joyce
Meyer
If you are holding onto
any unforgiveness against yourself or others, you will miss the joy God wants
you to have. Let it go! Joyce Meyer
If you are too busy for
God, then you are just too busy. Joyce Meyer
If you ask God to give you
a new dream, I believe He will. Joyce Meyer
If you can help a child,
you don’t have to spend years repairing an adult. Joyce Meyer
If you can manage to be
thankful in every situation, really believing that God is working everything
out for your good, you will end up with the victory every single time. Joyce
Meyer
If you can’t control what
you think, you will not be able to control what you do. Joyce Meyer
If you can’t learn to
enjoy your life when you have problems, you may never enjoy it because we’ll
always have problems. Joyce Meyer
If you change your mind,
you can change your life. Joyce Meyer
If you don’t develop your
potential, you are robbing the world of the gifts God has given you. Joyce
Meyer
If you don’t learn to
control your thoughts, you will never learn how to control your behavior. Joyce
Meyer
If you don’t like
yourself, you’re going to have a really hard time getting along with anyone
else. Joyce Meyer
If you don’t love yourself
and if you don’t know that God loves you then you are always going to look to
other people to make you feel good about yourself, and nothing destroys a
relationship like that because the other person feels manipulated and controlled
all the time to keep that insecure person happy. Joyce Meyer
If you don’t love
yourself, it’s impossible for you to love others. You can’t give away what you
don’t have. Joyce Meyer
If you follow God’s
leadership, you will have peace, joy and righteousness. Joyce Meyer
If you forgive others
before you go to sleep, freedom from wrong attitudes in your heart will help
you start your day right the next day. Joyce Meyer
If you hang out with God
long enough, He’ll equip you to do things you didn’t know you could do. Joyce
Meyer
If you know how to worry,
you know how to meditate. It means to think of something over and over. Joyce
Meyer
If you know who you are in
Christ, it won’t matter so much to you what other people think. Joyce Meyer
If you live on the edge,
something will always happen to help the devil push you over the edge. Joyce
Meyer
If you only do what is
easy, then you will always remain weak. Joyce Meyer
If you place your heart in
God’s hands, He will place your heart in the hands of a worthy person. Joyce
Meyer
If you put your trust in
God, then you can enjoy your life while God is solving your problem. Joyce
Meyer
If you start by being
thankful for small things, you will soon have big things to be thankful for. Joyce
Meyer
If you stay busy thinking
about right things, the devil won’t be able to fill your mind with wrong
things. Joyce Meyer
If you struggle with
anger, try this when you wake up in the morning. Consciously say, “I am going
out today without anger. I am taking love, mercy, and forgiveness with me and
will use them generously when needed.” Joyce Meyer
If you wait for perfect
conditions, you will never get anything done. Joyce Meyer
If you want joy to operate
in your life, you’ll have to learn how to forgive … and forget. Joyce Meyer
If you want to be free,
just start doing what God wants you to do, one step at a time, and you’ll
eventually walk about of your messes. Joyce Meyer
If you want to be
miserable, all you have to do is be selfish. Joyce Meyer
If you want to become
fully mature in the Lord, you must learn to love truth. Otherwise, you will
always leave open a door of deception for the enemy to take what is meant to be
yours. Joyce Meyer
If you want to get free,
you have to first get honest. Joyce Meyer
If you want to get over a
problem, stop talking about it. Your mind affects your mouth and your mouth
affects your mind. It’s difficult to stop talking about a situation until you
stop thinking about it. Joyce Meyer
If you want to have
sustained joy, you have to not only make sure that you think right, but you
also have to make decisions now that are going to guarantee some joy in the
future. Joyce Meyer
If you want to have the
beautiful life Christ wants you to have, you can’t dwell on all the junk
everyone’s done to you your whole life. Joyce Meyer
If you want to live in the
fullness of God’s anointing, fill your mouth with His Word. Joyce Meyer
If you want to run, don’t
run away from things, run toward them. Joyce Meyer
If you want what God
wants, there is no devil in hell that can keep you from getting it. Joyce
Meyer
If you will do what God
tells you to do, there’s no person on Earth and no devil in Hell that can keep
you from having what God wants you to have. Joyce Meyer
If you will do what you
can do, God will do what you cannot do. Joyce Meyer
If you will make time with
God your first priority, everything else in your life will fall into place. Joyce
Meyer
If you will stop feeding
your feelings, then they will stop controlling you. Joyce Meyer
If you will tend to God’s
business, He will tend to yours. Joyce Meyer
If you’ll fight like a
Christian overcoming evil with good, you’ll win every battle. Joyce Meyer
If you’re going through a
difficult time, start believing God will work things out for your good. Joyce
Meyer
If you’re hurting
spiritually, mentally, emotionally, financially, or in your relationships … I
want you to grasp hold of what I’m about to say: There is no area of your life
that God doesn’t care about. Joyce Meyer
If you’re in a workplace
you don’t like right now, be encouraged because God will use it for your good.
Think about it this way: He wants you to be a light in the darkness – and He’s
putting His confidence in you! Joyce Meyer
If you’re missing joy and
peace, you’re not trusting God. Joyce Meyer
If you’re not careful to
think and speak words of faith, worry will creep in, and it will not only steal
your peace and joy, it will steal your ‘today’. The present is the greatest
gift God ever gives us. So hold on to the peace that’s yours in Christ. Don’t
let it go. Joyce Meyer
If you’re strong enough on
the inside, you can handle anything that comes at you on the outside. Joyce
Meyer
If you’ve been married to
fear, it’s time to break up! Joyce Meyer
If your inner life is not
producing what you would like on the outside, don’t be discouraged … just be
willing to change. Joyce Meyer
Imagine how free we would
be if we just lived for God and didn’t worry about what others think about us? Joyce
Meyer
In His love for us, God
sent Jesus to earth to deliver us from the power and authority of the enemy.
Jesus is Lord over all; He has put all things under His feet. Because we are
“In Christ” as believers, the only place Satan has in our lives is under our
feet! Joyce Meyer
In my opinion, people give
up far too easily, and I would love to see people be a lot more persistent
believe I believe that persistence pays off. Get your life off of hold. Get it
out of park and start driving. Passivity is the devil’s playground. He loves it
when we shrink back in fear and do absolutely nothing. He loves it but we
don’t. We may think we are safe, but actually we end up miserable. God has
created us for progress, movement, mystery and having goals and reaching them.
We are cheating ourselves if we don’t boldly go for all God has in mind for us.
Joyce Meyer
In my relationship with
God, I’ve learned that if I follow a ‘formula’ for how I spend my time with
Him, then I’m just accomplishing a checklist of things I feel obligated to do
to please Him. This makes my spiritual life more about doing what I need to do
to fulfill an obligation than something meaningful. Joyce Meyer
In the midst of your
battles, never forget that God loves you and He has a plan for you. Joyce
Meyer
Indifference makes an
excuse, but love finds a way. Joyce Meyer
Individuals need to be
willing to face truth about their attitudes, behaviors, even what we want out
of life. Joyce Meyer
Insecure people say “yes”,
when they really mean “no”. Those who succeed at being themselves don’t allow
others to control them. They are led by their heart, not by the fear of
displeasing others or being rejected by them. Joyce Meyer
Instead of being critical
of people in authority over you and envious of their position, be happy you’re
not responsible for everything they have to do. Instead of piling on
complaints, thank them for what they do. Overwhelm them with encouragement and
appreciation! Joyce Meyer
Instead of blaming
everyone and everything else for your problems, pray for God to help you take
an inventory of what’s been on your mind so you can think about what you’ve
been thinking about. Joyce Meyer
Instead of concentrating
on your problems and getting discouraged, focus on God and meditate on His
promises for you. You may have fallen down, but you don’t have to stay down.
God is ready, willing and able to pick you up. Joyce Meyer
Instead of judging people,
we need to pray. Joyce Meyer
Instead of saying, “Lord,
I don’t know how I am going to do this”, say, “Lord, I can’t wait to see how
You do this!” Joyce Meyer
Integrity means that you
are the same in public as you are in private. Joyce Meyer
Is all anger sin? No, but
some of it is. Even God Himself has righteous anger against sin, injustice,
rebellion and pettiness. Joyce Meyer
Is your problem really
your problem, or is it your attitude towards the problem that is your problem? Joyce
Meyer
It changes everything in
your life when you know that God loves you unconditionally. Joyce Meyer
It confuses the devil when
he throws his best shot at you and all you do is praise and worship. Joyce
Meyer
It does not matter what
you have done, or what has been done to you. The past remains in the past. God
has a great future for you! Joyce Meyer
It doesn’t help God when I
read my Bible. It helps me. Joyce Meyer
It doesn’t matter who
doesn’t love us. God loves us! Joyce Meyer
It is a new day, and God’s
mercy is new every morning. Joyce Meyer
It is God’s will to bless
us, but not necessarily on our terms. Sometimes what we think would be a
wonderful blessing would not bless us at all. Joyce Meyer
It is impossible to be
both selfish and happy. Joyce Meyer
It is not about reading
the Word, it’s about obeying the Word. Joyce Meyer
It is our job to listen to
God and let Him tell us what is going on and what we are to do about it –
leaving the rest to Him to work out according to His knowledge and will, not
ours. Joyce Meyer
It is sad that today many
times people give up in the hard times and never get to enjoy the fruit of all
their labor. Joyce Meyer
It is so wonderful and
comforting to know that when everyone else only sees our faults, God still sees
our possibilities. Joyce Meyer
It is time to renew your
mind and become the person God wants you to be in every area of life. Joyce
Meyer
It is very helpful during
difficult times to remember they won’t last forever. Joyce Meyer
It is very inexpensive to
give a compliment. Joyce Meyer
It is vitally important
that before you try to change your behavior, you know who you are in Christ. Joyce
Meyer
It pleases our Heavenly
Father when we acknowledge and confess to Him our inability to run our own
lives. That is what we are doing when we say, “Father, help me! I need You!” Joyce
Meyer
It seems like a lot of
people seek their peace in things. And most of us are not even satisfied with
the things we have … we always want more. Joyce Meyer
It’s a lot easier to make
the right choice when you are focusing on God and your victory instead of the
fear of failure. Joyce Meyer
It’s amazing if you just
listen to people. They tell you all the time things that you can do for them,
without even realizing what they’re doing. I’ve learned to take notice of those
things and if it’s something that I feel God wants me to do, then I try to do
that to add joy to their life. Joyce Meyer
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
It’s better to have a big
goal and reach half of it, than to have no goal and reach all of it. Joyce
Meyer
It’s certainly not wrong
to want to be a better person. God gave us that desire. Joyce Meyer
It’s easy to give people
what they deserve, but it’s a privilege to give them mercy. Joyce Meyer
It’s important to have a
relationship with God. He’s the only one that can get down inside of you and
heal what needs to be healed inside. Joyce Meyer
It’s important to realize
that just because you are alone, it doesn’t mean that you must be lonely or
lonesome. Joyce Meyer
It’s important to
understand that whenever we excel in any area, it is only because God has given
us the gift of grace to do it. The moment we think we’ve accomplished great
things in our own strength, we’re getting into pride. Joyce Meyer
It’s impossible to live a
life totally free of feelings. God created all of us to be emotional creatures,
and feelings are a big part of our lives. Joyce Meyer
It’s just human nature to
try and figure things out. So when we’re in the midst of a situation, we
usually try to reason our way through it. Joyce Meyer
It’s just not a call to
action, it’s a call to being … being a person who helps a friend in need … who
helps a stranger in need … who practices aggressive acts of kindness. Joyce
Meyer
It’s like a jar of salad
dressing sitting on a shelf … most of the seasoning settles to the bottom of
the bottle. But when you shake that bottle up, all the ingredients mix together
and then the dressing can add flavor to a salad. In the same way, we can stir
ourselves up and regain the reverence, respect and awe we once had for the
Lord. Joyce Meyer
It’s never too late for a
new beginning in your life. Joyce Meyer
It’s not that we don’t
have faith, it is just that Satan is trying to destroy our faith with lies. Joyce
Meyer
It’s one thing to say you
believe. It’s another thing to have your faith tested severely and come out on
the other side of it still believing God. Joyce Meyer
It’s so amazing to know
that God is always with us, giving us His grace for everything we need to do in
life. Joyce Meyer
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. Joyce Meyer
It’s so important to
realize that every time you get upset, it drains your emotional energy. Losing
your cool makes you tired. Getting angry a lot messes with your health. Joyce
Meyer
It’s true my father abused
me and didn’t love and protect me the way he should have, and at times it
seemed no one would ever help me and it would never end. But God always had a
plan for my life, and He has redeemed me. Joyce Meyer
Jesus came so that we
would be like oak trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord. The oak
tree is one of the most strong and stable trees, and endures the winds and
storms. Its roots go deep. It starts out small, but eventually grows into a
very large tree giving shade to others. Isaiah 61:3
Jesus came to heal
everything in your life that’s broken and to restore everything the enemy has
taken. Joyce Meyer
Jesus came to heal the
brokenhearted, to set the captives free, to release those who are bound in a prison
and to comfort all who mourn. Luke 4:18 and Isaiah 61:1-8
Jesus can heal whatever it
is you can’t talk about. Joyce Meyer
Jesus designed us to be
fruitful, not busy. Joyce Meyer
Jesus did not die to give
us a religion. He died so that through faith in Him, we could have an intimate
relationship with God. Joyce Meyer
Jesus didn’t die for us so
we could pretend to be something we’re not. Joyce Meyer
Jesus died to give us
beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, and the garment of praise for
the spirit of heaviness. Isaiah 61:3
Jesus died to set us free
and one of the greatest freedoms we have is the freedom of choice. Joyce
Meyer
Jesus is a Divine guest
inside of you all the time – one who loves, understands, sees and hears you. He
wants to live in oneness with you … to be the centerpiece of everything you do.
Joyce Meyer
Jesus is not only with
you, but He is for you. Joyce Meyer
Jesus never mistreated
anyone just because they mistreated Him. He confronted them in a spirit of
gentleness and then continued to love them. Joyce Meyer
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
Jesus talked back to the
devil and you can too. Joyce Meyer
Joy comes from a decision
to appreciate each moment as a rare and precious gift from God. Joyce Meyer
Just because we don’t see
anything doesn’t mean God’s not working. Joyce Meyer
Just because what’s going
on in your life right now doesn’t feel good, doesn’t mean God’s not working. Joyce
Meyer
Just because you can’t see
it yet, doesn’t mean it’s not on its way. Joyce Meyer
Just because you feel fear
doesn’t mean you can’t do it. Do it afraid. Joyce Meyer
Just because you had a bad
start, doesn’t mean you can’t have a good finish. Joyce Meyer
Just relax and let God be
God. Joyce Meyer
Just say “no” to
negativity! Joyce Meyer
Keep walking the walk one
step at a time. Joyce Meyer
Keep your mind going in
the right direction, and your life will catch up to it. Joyce Meyer
Know that as a Christian,
your destiny is to be Christlike in all of your ways. Joyce Meyer
Laughter is vitally
important in the battle against stress, anxiety, fear and worry. Joyce Meyer
Laughter not only makes
the journey endurable and even enjoyable, it also helps keep us healthy … be
like a child: learn to laugh more! Joyce Meyer
Lean in to the God who
loves you. Talk to Him openly about your weaknesses, failures and mistakes. Joyce
Meyer
Learn from your past
mistake and resolve not to repeat it. And let it go. Joyce Meyer
Learn how to enjoy where
you are on the way to where you’re going. Joyce Meyer
Learn to do your own
thinking - don’t let other people do it for you! Joyce Meyer
Learn to forgive. Holding
a grudge only makes you unhappy. Joyce Meyer
Learn to recognize God in
the smallest and most ordinary things and your life will be amazingly exciting.
Joyce Meyer
Learning to live for
others isn’t something that just comes naturally to anybody. You have to train
yourself to do it. Joyce Meyer
Let go and let God. Joyce
Meyer
Let go of the past and
grab on to your future. Joyce Meyer
Let God be your Source of
comfort. In the future, when you are hurting, just ask Him to comfort you. Then
wait in His Presence while He works in your heart and emotions. He will not
fail you if you will only give Him a chance to come to your aid. Joyce Meyer
Let prayer be your first
response and not your last resort. Joyce Meyer
Let the past remain in the
past. Every day with God is a new day! Joyce Meyer
Let us be determined to
look for God in all things at all times. Joyce Meyer
Let’s be as forgiving of
others as we are of ourselves. Joyce Meyer
Let’s stop comparing
ourselves with other people and trying to find ways that we’re better than
them, because none of us are anything without Jesus Christ. I like to say I’m
an everything nothing. I’m nothing in myself but everything in Christ. Joyce
Meyer
Life is real and problems
are real. Bring Jesus into your real life today, not just on Sunday. Joyce
Meyer
Life is really hard when
we keep trying to do what only God can do. Joyce Meyer
Life is sometimes very
complicated, but we can purposely learn to enjoy the simple yet powerful and
beautiful things God has created! Joyce Meyer
Life isn’t fair, but God
is. Joyce Meyer
Life will not always
change, so we must be willing to change. Joyce Meyer
Live a life without
strife! Joyce Meyer
Live to please God, not
people. You have His approval, and that is all you really need! Joyce Meyer
Lord my future is in your
hands. In reality, I can’t truly control anything. I humble myself before You
and cast my cares into Your hands. Thank You for Your care. Amen. Joyce
Meyer
Lord, I am confident today
because my confidence is rooted and grounded in You. On my own, I will fall on
my face. My trust is in You. Joyce Meyer
Lord, thank You for
forgiveness. Joyce Meyer
Lord, thank You for rest. Joyce
Meyer
Love and Self-Control are
the bookends of the Fruit of the Spirit. Remove one of them, and the rest will
fall over. Joyce Meyer
Love can melt the hardest
heart, heal the wounds of a broken heart and quiet the fears of the anxious
heart. Joyce Meyer
Love gives life purpose
and meaning. Joyce Meyer
Love is and has always
been His idea. He came to love us and to teach us how to love. When we do this,
life is exciting, beautiful and rewarding. Joyce Meyer
Love is costly; it
requires an effort. But it is the thing Jesus has called us to do. Joyce
Meyer
Love is not a mere
feeling. It’s a decision about how we will behave and treat people. Joyce
Meyer
Love is not something God
does – it’s who He is. Joyce Meyer
Love is not talk or
theory; it’s action. In fact, the Bible says that we cannot be walking in love
if we see a brother in need, have what it takes to meet his need, and will not
do anything to help him. Joyce Meyer
Love is something that can
be seen and felt. It can change lives. It can make a difference for people. Joyce
Meyer
Love one another. Joyce
Meyer
Love respects the
differences in people. A selfish person expects everyone to be just the way he
is and to like whatever he likes. Joyce Meyer
Love your life because it
is the only one you have! Joyce Meyer
Loving others always costs
us something and requires effort. And you have to decide to do it on purpose.
You can’t wait for a feeling to motivate you. Joyce Meyer
Loving people is the
highest level of spiritual warfare that we could ever do. Joyce Meyer
Maintaining a good
attitude in the midst of something unpleasant is the key to victory. It enables
us to enjoy the journey. Joyce Meyer
Make a decision right now
that you will never be satisfied with being anything less than all you can be! Joyce
Meyer
Make an agreement with God
to never again speak negative things about yourself. Joyce Meyer
Make happiness a habit. Be
so happy you drive the devil stark-raving mad. Joyce Meyer
Make up your mind that
you’re not going to quit until you see the fruit that God has placed within
you. Joyce Meyer
Make your marriage your
first priority. When you wake up in the morning, think of one thing you can do
for your spouse to make their day better. Joyce Meyer
Many Christians suffer
because they’re too busy seeking carnal knowledge instead of the Word of God. Joyce
Meyer
Many people feel so
pressured by the expectations of others that it causes them to be frustrated,
miserable and confused about what they should do. But there is a way to live a
simple, joy-filled, peaceful life, and the key is learning how to be led by the
Holy Spirit, not the traditions or expectations of man. Joyce Meyer
Many people in the western
world are spoiled by the conveniences of our culture. Joyce Meyer
Many people never step
out; therefore, they never find out what they are capable of. Joyce Meyer
Many sophisticated,
intelligent people lack wisdom and common sense. Joyce Meyer
Many times in our life, we
are dropped, crumpled and ground into dirt by the decisions we make and the
circumstances that come our way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no
matter what has happened or what will happen, we will never lose our value in
God’s eyes. Joyce Meyer
May the God of hope fill
you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with
hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Joyce Meyer
Meditate on Scripture.
Thank about what you read throughout the day. Joyce Meyer
Meekness is not weakness,
it’s strength under control. Joyce Meyer
Merely refusing to give up
is a victory in itself. Joyce Meyer
Mind, mouth, attitude,
mood. Joyce Meyer
Miracles come in cans, not
can’ts. Joyce Meyer
Most of us have hoped and
prayed for something to happen in a certain way, but it didn’t. And when this
happened, we had a choice to make: to react with offense towards God or to
trust Him anyways. Joyce Meyer
Motives reveal why we do
what we do, which is actually more important to God than what we’re doing. Joyce
Meyer
Much of everyday life is
filled with opportunities to be distracted. Our possessions … entertainment …
cares and anxieties … and even the passionate desire and pursuit of things,
some good and not so good, can keep our minds and hearts caught up in a flurry
of activity. Joyce Meyer
My attitude belongs to me,
and I can decide what it’s going to be. Joyce Meyer
My father was a mean,
controlling and manipulative person for most of his life. He was unpredictable
and unstable. As a result, the atmosphere of our home was super-charged with
fear because you never knew if what you did would make him mad or not. Joyce
Meyer
My father was a negative
person. He actually taught me to be negative, if that makes any sense. I
remember him saying: “You know there’s no point in expecting anything good to
happen because it won’t.” I grew up in such a negative atmosphere. Joyce
Meyer
My hope is that God will
have changed people’s lives through me for the better. Joyce Meyer
My purpose in life is to
do right and to glorify God. Joyce Meyer
Negative minds full of
fear and doubt produce negative lives, which can ultimately destroy your life. Joyce
Meyer
Never compare yourself to
others. Joyce Meyer
Never stop dreaming. Joyce
Meyer
New level, new devil! Joyce
Meyer
No hole is too deep. No
mountain is too high. I can do this! Joyce Meyer
No matter how hard your
past has been, God has a good future for you. Joyce Meyer
No matter how many times
you mess up, God is always there to give you a fresh start. Joyce Meyer
No matter how wounded we
are when we begin our journey toward wholeness, God has guaranteed our success
as long as we don’t give up. Joyce Meyer
No matter what is going on
in your life right now, don’t lose hope. Your breakthrough is coming. Joyce
Meyer
No matter what you may be
facing right now or what comes up in the future, remember two things: God is
with you, and He is in control. Joyce Meyer
No matter what you’re
going through, there’s no pit so deep that God can’t reach in and get you out. Joyce
Meyer
No one – not even God, can
promise that we will never have to deal with disappointment or trouble. But the
important thing is that we never stop hoping. Maintaining a positive attitude
and holding on to the hope we have in Christ puts us in a position to see God’s
miracle-working power. Joyce Meyer
Nobody can ever say that
being negative ever helped them at all – not in any way. Joyce Meyer
Nobody has to let their
past affect their future. Joyce Meyer
Nobody is in charge of
your happiness except you. Joyce Meyer
Nobody likes to have
trouble. The moment we get a hint that it’s coming, a common response is, “Oh
no, not again!” Joyce Meyer
Not everyone loves me, but
I have to be okay no matter what they think about me. Joyce Meyer
Not only has your past
been paid for, your future has been provided for. Joyce Meyer
Note to self: Pick your
battles. Joyce Meyer
Nothing will make sense if
you are not centered on God first. Joyce Meyer
Nothing will soften you
like being in the Presence of God, recognizing His love, and seeing all the
things He does for you. Joyce Meyer
Now, we can’t stop the
devil from coming against us, but we can overcome him each time – if we
exercise the authority of Jesus and decide not to put up with him. Joyce
Meyer
Obedience to God is the
pathway to the life you really want to live. Joyce Meyer
Obedience with murmuring
is not genuine obedience at all. Joyce Meyer
Obeying God is the answer
to straightening out every problem that you have. Joyce Meyer
Often, the things we don’t
like about ourselves are the things God wants to use the most! Joyce Meyer
Once I realized that right
thinking is vital to victorious living, I got more serious about thinking about
what I was thinking about, and choosing my thoughts carefully. Joyce Meyer
Once we know the Word of
God, we have a responsibility to be obedient to it. Joyce Meyer
Once we understand how God
sees us through Christ, we can refrain from caring what people think about us,
and feeling bad about ourselves. We don’t have to be addicted to their
approval, because we already have God’s. Joyce Meyer
Once you realize that you
are loved by God, not because of anything you are or anything you have done,
then you can quit trying to deserve His love or earn His love and simply
receive it and enjoy it. Joyce Meyer
One might say that our
words are a movie screen that reveals what we have been thinking and the
attitudes we have. Joyce Meyer
One mistake doesn’t have
to rule a person’s entire life. Joyce Meyer
One of the best gifts we
can give ourselves is time alone with God. Joyce Meyer
One of the best ways to
discern whether you really know something is to ask yourself whether you’re
doing it or not. Joyce Meyer
One of the best ways to
walk in love is to be a blessing to other people or simply to help them. Joyce
Meyer
One of the ingredients of
forming good habits and breaking bad ones is focusing on what you want to do
and not on what you want to stop doing. Joyce Meyer
One of the reasons why so
many people have pressure in their lives is that they are trying to do things
that God has not anointed them to do. Joyce Meyer
One of the things I love
most about being at home is that I am comfortable there. And since we are the
home of Christ, we need to make sure He’s comfortable in us. Joyce Meyer
Our desire for approval
can only truly be met by receiving God’s acceptance and approval of us. Joyce
Meyer
Our enemy, the devil,
wants to control us, and His target is our will. The main way he tries to
influence our will is through lying to us. Joyce Meyer
Our faith is released as
we say, pray and do the Word. Joyce Meyer
Our feelings are real and
powerful. But they are not more powerful than God and the truth. Joyce Meyer
Our feelings are
unreliable and cannot be trusted to convey truth. Joyce Meyer
Our joy does not have to
be based on our circumstances. Joyce Meyer
Our part is to trust God
and His part is to provide the answer we need! Joyce Meyer
Our past experiences may
have made us the way we are, but we don’t have to stay that way. Joyce Meyer
Our past may explain why
we’re suffering, but we must not use it as an excuse to stay in bondage. Joyce
Meyer
Our problems are God’s
opportunities. Joyce Meyer
Our thoughts are silent
words that only we and the Lord hear, but those words affect our inner man, our
health, our joy and our attitude. The things we think about often come out of
our mouths and sometimes make us look foolish, but if we live God’s way, our
thoughts and words can make out lives more enjoyable. Don’t make the mistake of
thinking that you can let your thought life run in any worldly direction, and
then “fake it" by speaking godly words. Either both are pleasing or both
are negative and sinful. There is no middle ground. Joyce Meyer
Our thoughts create the
mold for our actions. Joyce Meyer
Our weakness is one of our
greatest excuses. We may be weak, but God is strong, and He is willing to be
our strength. Joyce Meyer
Our words will either
bring life and victory or death and destruction. If we want to be happy, we
have to be serious about speaking words of life that line up with God’s Word. Joyce
Meyer
Over the years I’ve
learned how to lock myself up in a prison of hope, knowing that God has nothing
but His best planned for me. He promised me things concerning my ministry and
my life. Joyce Meyer
Over the years, I’ve
learned that a confident person doesn’t concentrate or focus on their
weaknesses – they maximize their strengths. Joyce Meyer
P.U.S.H. Pray Until
Something Happens. Joyce Meyer
Patience is a fruit of the
Spirit that grows only under trial. It is useless to pray for patience. Well,
actually I encourage you to pray for patience, but I’ll tell you what you’ll
get: TRIALS. Joyce Meyer
Patience is not the
ability to wait, but how you act while you’re waiting. Joyce Meyer
Patience is not the
ability to wait. Waiting is a fact of life. Patience is the ability to keep a
good attitude while waiting. Joyce Meyer
Peace is amazingly
wonderful, and turmoil is amazingly terrible. We need to have peace! Joyce
Meyer
Peace is one of the most
precious gifts God has promised His children. I know, because for many years my
life was not peaceful, and I was miserable. Joyce Meyer
People brag about living
in the fast lane, but truthfully, that’s where all the accidents happen. Joyce
Meyer
People can’t see what’s in
your heart. They can only see what you do. Joyce Meyer
People full of purpose
make the most of the time and talents God has given them. Joyce Meyer
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
People who pity themselves
think, “Why would I try to do anything? I’ll just fail.” Joyce Meyer
Perfectionists demand
perfection from themselves first and foremost. Joyce Meyer
Perhaps we could enjoy
ordinary, everyday life more if we learned to celebrate the ordinary. Joyce
Meyer
Personally, I am looking
for God to show me where He would like me to give or make a difference in
someone else’s life. I wake up every day and ask God how He would like me to be
a blessing to someone that day. Joyce Meyer
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
Place your desires before
God. Pray about them and trust God to give them to you if and when they are
right for you. Joyce Meyer
Positive minds full of
faith and hope produce positive lives. Joyce Meyer
Positive minds produce
positive lives. Negative words produce negative lives. Positive thoughts are
always full of faith and hope. Negative thoughts are always full of fear and
doubt. Joyce Meyer
Positive minds that agree
with God’s Word produce positive, peaceful lives. Joyce Meyer
Potential is a priceless
treasure, like gold. All of us have gold hidden within, but we have to dig to
get it out. Joyce Meyer
Power Thought: I can rest
in God and keep my peace no matter what is going on in my life. Joyce Meyer
Praise your way to
victory! Joyce Meyer
Pray about everything.
Tell God what you need and thank Him for all He has done. Joyce Meyer
Pray and obey, obey and
pray, pray and obey, obey and pray. Joyce Meyer
Pray and Say. Joyce
Meyer
Pray boldly, expectantly,
specifically. Your Heavenly Father loves you, so don’t be afraid to be bold in
prayer. Joyce Meyer
Pray, Pray, Pray, Pray,
Pray about everything! Joyce Meyer
Prayer changes more than
things … it changes you! Joyce Meyer
Prayer doesn’t just change
things – it changes us. If we are diligent in seeking God, slowly and surely we
become better people. Joyce Meyer
Prayer for today: “God,
what can I do for You today?” Joyce Meyer
Prayer is simply talking
to God like a friend and should be the easiest thing we do each day. Joyce
Meyer
Prayer is such a basic
foundation of a Christian’s relationship with God. It’s how we communicate and
fellowship with Him. But a surprising number of people, both young and old, new
and even long-time Christians, say that they are not satisfied with their
prayer life. Joyce Meyer
Prayer Starter: “God, I
know that true happiness comes from giving, not receiving. I want to live the
life of true happiness that comes from forgetting about my selfish desires and
seeking to give to those around me.” Today, find someone you can give to. No
matter how big or small your gift, whether it's money, time or encouragement,
just give what you have. Experience the true happiness that comes from giving. Joyce
Meyer
Prayer Starter: “Lord, my
worrying really doesn’t accomplish anything, so I leave it behind. I’m so
thankful that You can fix what I can’t. You calm me down and cheer me up!” Joyce
Meyer
Prayer Starter: God, I
come to You through the Blood of Jesus that cleanses me of my sin. Thank You
for Your forgiveness. I refuse to live in shame because I know I can draw near
to You now, receiving Your love and forgiveness. Joyce Meyer
Prayer Starter: God, thank
You for the gift of a new day. Instead of focusing on the frustrating things in
life, I choose to be in peace in You, and rejoice and be glad in it! Joyce
Meyer
Pride is an independent,
me-oriented spirit. It makes people arrogant, rude and hard to get along with.
When our heart is prideful, we don’t give God the credit and we mistreat
people, looking down on them and thinking we deserve what we have. Joyce
Meyer
Pride is the problem.
Humility is the answer. Joyce Meyer
Put on the mind of Christ.
Joyce Meyer
Put your expectations on
God, not on people. Joyce Meyer
Putting on the shoes of
peace is the only way you can defeat the devil. If you have no peace, you have
no power. Joyce Meyer
Quit complaining. Joyce
Meyer
Quit complaining. Today
thank God and decide to not complain about anything. Ask Him to show you
anytime you are getting ready to complain, and to help you hold your tongue.
Today, give thanks for what you have without looking at what you don’t have.
Some people have the same problems you have, but they don’t know God. At least
you can give thanks that God is in your life. The Word says, “Let there be no
filthiness (obscenity, indecency) nor foolish or sinful (silly and corrupt)
talk, nor course jesting, which are not fitting or becoming, but instead voice
your thankfulness to God – Ephesians 5:4. Guard your tongue today. Joyce
Meyer
Real Christianity can be
summed up in two commands: Love God and love people. Joyce Meyer
Real life is the life
that’s in you, not your circumstances, like where you live or what job you have
or who you’re in a relationship with. Joyce Meyer
Really showing love
requires more than just words. Joyce Meyer
Refuse to allow your
circumstances to dictate how you’re going to feel. Joyce Meyer
Refuse to be a lazy
Christian, and resist a passive, apathetic attitude. Joyce Meyer
Refuse to live in fear.
Put setbacks behind you. Don’t draw comparisons. Be willing to take action. Joyce
Meyer
Regardless of what you’ve
been told, God doesn’t give up on you when you get stuck. Joyce Meyer
Remain calm in every
situation, because peace equals power. Joyce Meyer
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
Remember, God begins where
we end. Stop struggling, trying to make things happen according to your
desires, and ask God to take the driver’s seat in your life. Joyce Meyer
Remember, what’s in our
hearts and minds, will come out of our mouth. Joyce Meyer
Renew your joy. Emotional
trauma drains people of their energy. But the Word says, “Be not grieved and
depressed, for the joy of the Lord is your strength and stronghold” (Nehemiah
8:10). The devil wants to steal your joy because he knows that joy is your
strength. He wants you to be weak so that you won’t resist the turmoil he sets
against you. That is why sometimes we need each other. Some days God will send
messengers to build you up in faith and renew your joy. Some days He will send
you to someone else who is in a weakened condition because Satan has been
pounding on them. Be someone’s friend today. They may need a friend to stand
beside them and encourage them and to lift them up and pray for them. Joyce
Meyer
Reproach is shame, blame,
disgrace, disapproval and a disrespectful attitude toward yourself. When you’re
under reproach, your behavior shows it. Joyce Meyer
Resist the need to be
‘right’ all the time or to always have the last word. Joyce Meyer
Rid yourself of clutter.
“You will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You, because he
trusts in You” (Isaiah 26:3). Sometimes we complicate our life by taking on
things that God has not told us to do. We add stress, confusion, and clutter with
the unnecessary things we take on and hold on to. We need to use our faith to
let go of whatever clutters our mind and keeps us from peace. Ask God to show
you ways to simplify your life. Take an inventory today, and start throwing out
whatever is filling your life with unproductive distractions. God wants you to
enjoy your day, so get rid of whatever He shows you to give up. Joyce Meyer
Right action follows right
thinking. You will not change your behavior until you change your thoughts. Joyce
Meyer
Right thinking and right
attitudes are roadmaps that allow us to reach our destination. Joyce Meyer
Right thinking is a result
of regular, personal fellowship with God through prayer and the Word. It is
important for us to come to grips with the fact that our lives will not get
straightened out until our thinking gets straightened out. Thoughts bear fruit.
When you and I think good thoughts, our lives produce good fruit. When we think
bad thoughts, our lives produce bad fruit. Joyce Meyer
Sadly, the truth is, there
aren’t many people who can be put in high positions who won’t start thinking
highly of themselves. Joyce Meyer
Satan frequently steals
the will of God from us due to reasoning. The Lord may direct us to do a
certain thing, but if it does not make sense – if it is not logical – we may be
tempted to disregard it. What God leads a person to do does not always make logical
sense to the mind. Our spirit may affirm it but our mind reject it, especially
if it would be out of the ordinary or unpleasant, or if it would require
personal sacrifice or discomfort. Joyce Meyer
Satan is the master
distracter. He is always working to keep us off track in our walk with God. Joyce
Meyer
Satan wants us to
constantly focus on everything that is wrong with us and look at how far we
still have to go. But God desires for us to rejoice in how far we have already
come. Joyce Meyer
Satan will battle you with
doubt and unbelief, but God has victory waiting for you if you’ll keep trusting
and believing Him. Joyce Meyer
Seek His face and not His
hand. Joyce Meyer
Selfishness equals death.
Love equals life. Joyce Meyer
Self-pity is idolatry! It
is the most useless emotion. You can be addicted to self-pity and every time
you don’t get your way the first response is to feel sorry for yourself. When
we are full of self-pity, we turn in on ourselves and idolize ourselves, and
all we can think about is me, me, me. What you did to me, what you’re not doing
for me, what’s happening to me. When you feel that coming on, say “No!” I
cannot be pitiful and powerful. I am not going to sit here and waste this day
feeling sorry for myself. If I trust God, He will take care of me. Joyce
Meyer
Self-pity is the most
miserable party to go to, because, in case you haven’t noticed, you’re the only
one who is there. Joyce Meyer
Serving God doesn’t mean
we won’t have difficulties. We’re still on the battlefield. But we don’t have
to fight alone. Joyce Meyer
Set your mind that no
matter what is going on in your life, you will have a good attitude. Joyce
Meyer
Showing gratitude: 1)
Thank You notes 2) Hand-written letters 3) Saying grace before meals 4) Create
a Gratitude Journal 5) find value in suffering 6) reflect on the day’s
celebrations 7) turn your negatives into positives 8) call your parents 9)
random acts of kindness 10) conquer negativity with a grateful attitude. Joyce
Meyer
Simplicity is a key to
avoiding complication. Part of the definition of simplicity is “not complex or
complicated; sincere”. Joyce Meyer
Simply put, fear is the
opposite of faith. God wants us to walk by faith, and Satan wants us to walk by
fear. Joyce Meyer
Sin is not dead, but we
are dead to sin. Joyce Meyer
Sitting in church does not
make one a Christian any more than sitting in a garage makes one a car. Joyce
Meyer
Slow down. Remember, more
is not necessarily better. It’s about quality, not quantity. Joyce Meyer
Slow your pace and take
the scenic route. Joyce Meyer
So ask yourself, “Am I in
agreement with what God is doing in me? Or am I struggling and fighting,
impatiently trying to do things my way. I can assure you, if you’re struggling
with God, you’re just wasting your time, but if you’re in agreement with Him,
you’re using your time for great things.” Joyce Meyer
So many people live with
anger and unforgiveness, and many of them are Christians. Joyce Meyer
So much of what we do
every single day is the result of habits that we have formed over time. Joyce
Meyer
So what if you’re not
perfect? Nobody else is either. Joyce Meyer
Soak in His Presence. Joyce
Meyer
Some Christians feel
guilty when they are doing something that isn’t ‘spiritual’. Somehow or
another, they feel the need to hurry through the grocery store, dash through
the house cleaning, and rush through all the daily aspects of life that seem
irrelevant to their faith. Joyce Meyer
Some of our biggest
problems have the simplest answers if we follow the leading of the Holy Spirit.
Joyce Meyer
Some of you might say,
“Well, I have faith. I believe in Jesus.” Frankly, it’s one thing to say you
have faith, but it’s an entirely different matter to apply your faith to life’s
challenges. Joyce Meyer
Some people are hurting so
bad you have to do more than preach a message to them. You have to be a message
to them. Joyce Meyer
Some people have a
difficult time facing truth and reality. They prefer to live in a make-believe
world, pretending that certain things are not happening. Joyce Meyer
Some people have a hard
time getting rid of stuff. If that’s you, pray for God to give you the courage
to get rid of things you don’t really need or things He wants you to give away.
This will help keep your surroundings organized and clutter-free. Joyce
Meyer
Some people think they
have discernment when actually they are just suspicious. Suspicion comes out of
the unrenewed mind. Discernment comes out of the renewed spirit. Joyce Meyer
Something good always
comes when we think according to God’s plan for our lives. Joyce Meyer
Something good is going to
happen to me today. Joyce Meyer
Something unique is more
valuable than something that’s just like everything else. Joyce Meyer
Sometimes a single word
can make all the difference. Joyce Meyer
Sometimes God allows us to
be tested because He is preparing us for promotion. Joyce Meyer
Sometimes God doesn’t want
us to be rescued by others. He wants us to walk out of our mess with Him. Joyce
Meyer
Sometimes I just sit still
and enjoy God’s Presence. Joyce Meyer
Sometimes if you got a
problem deeply rooted in your life, it takes a little bit of time to overcome
it in that area. Joyce Meyer
Sometimes love is
expressed through service. Words are great, but when you walk in love, your
commitment must be more than words. Joyce Meyer
Sometimes new opportunity
means new opposition. Not everything God asks us to do will be comfortable. Joyce
Meyer
Sometimes we just need to
stop worrying and trust God. Joyce Meyer
Sometimes when you’ve had
a long series of disappointing things happen, you can get into the very bad
habit of just expecting more of what you’ve already had. Joyce Meyer
Sometimes you must suffer
through something to defeat your fear of it. Joyce Meyer
Sowing the Word into our
lives every day is the groundwork for a fruitful life. Trust in God to bless
you bountifully. Joyce Meyer
Speak good things about
yourself. Joyce Meyer
Speak this over your life:
“God, I give You my reputation. I’m not going to spend my life worrying about
what other people think of me. I am going to be free to be who I am and be led
by You and do what I believe You want me to do, and whatever people think, it’s
up to them.” Joyce Meyer
Speaking negatively could
hurt you, but speaking positively never will. Joyce Meyer
Spending time with God is
proof that He is important to us. Joyce Meyer
Spending time with God is
the key to our strength and success in all areas of life. Be sure you never try
to work God into your schedule, but always work your schedule around Him. Joyce
Meyer
Spending time with God
through prayer and His Word is a prerequisite for having a great life and
fulfilling your purpose. Joyce Meyer
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
Stand for what you believe
in, but treat everyone with love. Joyce Meyer
Start believing the Word
of God over your feelings. The truth always overrides our feelings. Find the
truth in the Scriptures. Joyce Meyer
Start believing today that
you are a rare, one-of-a-kind, valuable and precious woman. Joyce Meyer
Start talking to God as
soon as you wake up each day – He is waiting to hear your voice. Joyce Meyer
Start your week off right
by getting back to what is really important – honoring God. Joyce Meyer
Stay active. Read the
Word. Worship with other believers. Continue to give. Keep learning and
growing. Your faith will be unleashed! Joyce Meyer
Stay in your own lane. Joyce
Meyer
Step out. Follow your
heart and do what God is calling you to do. Joyce Meyer
Stop begging and start
receiving. Joyce Meyer
Stop being tormented by
everyone else’s reaction to you. Joyce Meyer
Stop building your own
house and let the Master Builder take over. Joyce Meyer
Stop comparing yourself to
other people. You are an original. We are all different, and it’s okay. Joyce
Meyer
Stop despising where you
are in your journey and let God use it for your good. Joyce Meyer
Stop determining your
worth and value by what other people say. Be determined by what the Word of God
says. Joyce Meyer
Stop focusing on what is
wrong with everyone else and start focusing on how blessed you are. Joyce
Meyer
Stop giving someone else
the job of making you happy. Joyce Meyer
Stop labeling people just
because they’re not like you. Joyce Meyer
Stop living in fear that
you’re always going to do the wrong thing. If God gives you something to do, He
will anoint you to do it. Joyce Meyer
Stop looking at what you
can’t do and find something you can do, and start doing it by faith. If you
will do the little bit you can do, God will do everything that you can’t do. Joyce
Meyer
Stop looking to people to
meet your needs and start looking to God. Don’t make others responsible for
your happiness. Joyce Meyer
Stop thinking about what
you’ve lost and start seeing what you have left. Even if it doesn’t seem like
much, God can still use it to do great things. Joyce Meyer
Stop trying to give God
everything you are and start giving Him everything you’re not – His strength is
made perfect in our weakness. Joyce Meyer
Stop worrying about the
people who don’t like you, and start getting busy finding the ones that do. Joyce
Meyer
Stress in marriages would
be reduced if husbands and wives would be willing to show love by simply
serving one another. Joyce Meyer
Strive for excellence, not
perfection, because we don’t live in a perfect world. Joyce Meyer
Take a firm grasp on God’s
sovereignty and trust His love even when you don’t understand His purpose. Joyce
Meyer
Take a leap of faith
towards your destiny. God has a gold-medal story for each of us. He wants you
to enjoy a life that overcomes obstacles and seizes opportunities. And here’s
the key: You have to move past your past. There are many people who aren’t experiencing
victory today because they are focused on yesterday. When they close their
eyes, they don’t see their dreams for tomorrow. They only see the devastation
of yesterday. But God is rewriting your story and reshaping your identity. Take
your eyes off the past and place them solely on Jesus. Joyce Meyer
Take action in your life!
Sitting back and passively wishing stress would go away won’t work! Joyce
Meyer
Talk about what God has
done in your life, more than you talk about what the devil is doing in your
life. Joyce Meyer
Teachers can change lives
with just the right mix of chalk and challenges. Joyce Meyer
Thank God for your
strengths. Trust God to help you with your weaknesses. Joyce Meyer
Thank You, Father, for the
way You take residence in my heart. You are not distant or out of reach. I
thank You that You dwell in me and are involved in every area of my life. Joyce
Meyer
Thankful for hindsight so
I can see God’s handiwork. Joyce Meyer
Thankfulness side effects
may include, but are not limited to the following: more energy, better sleep,
less headaches, increased self-esteem, decreased depression, decreased anxiety,
boost in the immune system, large increase in happiness. Joyce Meyer
Thanking God in the midst
of a problem is a gift we give ourselves. Joyce Meyer
The answer is to stop
worrying and place your trust in God. He has the future all planned, and He
knows the answer to everything. His Word promises us that He will take care of
us if we trust in Him. Joyce Meyer
The answer to fear is
always the same … Be strong and courageous for God is with you. Joyce Meyer
The battle belongs to the
Lord. Joyce Meyer
The best part about life?
Every morning you have a new opportunity to become a happier version of
yourself. Joyce Meyer
The best way to get along
with people is to not expect them to be like you. Joyce Meyer
The best way to have the
last word is to apologize. Joyce Meyer
The best way to interrupt
wrong thoughts is to open your mouth and speak the truth outloud. Joyce
Meyer
The Bible is no ordinary
book. There is life in the Word! The words are like medicine to your soul, and
it has the power to change your life! Joyce Meyer
The Bible says that
Christians are the salt of the earth and the light of the world. On the job, in
the grocery store, even among unsaved friends and family members, God’s people
are there to bring seasoning to an unsavory situation. Joyce Meyer
The Bible says the power
of life and death are in the tongue. Choose life. Joyce Meyer
The Bible says to “fear
not”, but this doesn’t mean you should never feel scared. It does mean when you
do feel fear, keep going forward and do what you are supposed to do. Or as I
like to say, do it afraid. Joyce Meyer
The Bible tells us to be
perfect. This is likely a scary thought for many people. It used to scare me. I
didn’t think I could ever get there, no matter how hard I tried. Joyce Meyer
The broad path is heavily
traveled, but if you choose the narrow path there may be times when you won’t
see anyone but Jesus (Matthew 7:13-14). Joyce Meyer
The confidence of knowing
that God loves, accepts, and approves of you is the best thing you can ever
have. Joyce Meyer
The conscience can be a
strong guide in life if we allow it. Joyce Meyer
The Creator of the entire
universe, the One who causes the sun to rise and set every day, He cares about
you. Joyce Meyer
The day we receive Jesus
Christ as our Savior is one of the greatest days of our lives. Not only are our
sins washed away, but God puts His Spirit inside of us and gives us new
desires. Joyce Meyer
The decision is yours to
make. Will you say goodbye to fear and not look back? Joyce Meyer
The devil doesn’t know
what to do with somebody who just won’t give up. Joyce Meyer
The devil is a liar, and
he can only harm people who believe him and are deceived by him. Joyce Meyer
The devil is a peace
stealer, and he works hard to set us up to get upset. But we can learn how to
change our approach so we don’t live upset all the time. And Jesus gives us the
best example to follow. Joyce Meyer
The devil is no longer
looking for an open door in your life. He will take any crack you give him. Joyce
Meyer
The eagle has no fear of
adversity. We need to be like the eagle and have a fearless spirit of a
conqueror! Joyce Meyer
The enemy doesn’t fear us
going to church every week, he fears us having a close and powerful
relationship with God. Joyce Meyer
The enemy knows that if he
can get enough wrong things going on in our heads, they will eventually begin
to come out of our mouths. Joyce Meyer
The expression “Valley of
Achor” became proverbial for that which caused trouble. That which has been a
source of calamity will become a source of blessing. The Valley of Achor
(trouble) will be for a door of hope.
The flesh, or human
nature, is generally lazy and self-centered. Joyce Meyer
The great quest of life
has always been to discover truth. Joyce Meyer
The great thing about God
is that He does not just see where we are, He also sees where we are going. And
He treats us with the end in mind throughout the whole trip. Joyce Meyer
The greatest and strongest
fear must cower at the Name of Jesus. Joyce Meyer
The greatest chapters of
your life are yet to be written. Joyce Meyer
The greatest pages of your
story have yet to be written. Joyce Meyer
The greatest prison people
live in is the fear of what others think of them. Joyce Meyer
The
Greek definition of hope is: expectation, confidence, to anticipate (usually
with pleasure), to trust, to have faith.
The Holy Spirit is our
Comforter, Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener. Joyce
Meyer
The Holy Spirit showed me
that when I put up walls to keep others out, I also wall myself into a solitary
place of confinement. Joyce Meyer
The Israelites’ slavery in
Egypt is the equivalent to our slavery of sin. God sent Moses to deliver them
from bondage, and He sent Jesus Christ to set us free. Joyce Meyer
The last thing the devil
wants you to do is be an obedient Christian. Joyce Meyer
The Lord goes before you
and will be with you. Joyce Meyer
The Lord is not glorified
by our suffering, but He is glorified when we have a good attitude during
suffering. Joyce Meyer
The Lord takes great
delight in you. Isaiah 62:4 NIV
The Lord will fight for
you, you need only be still. Joyce Meyer
The Lord will restore
health to you and heal you of all your wounds, and you shall no longer be
called an outcast. You shall be sought after, no longer forsaken. Isaiah 62:12;
Jeremiah 30:17
The Lord will restore the
ruins of our life. God says, I have loved you with an everlasting love. With
loving-kindness have I drawn you. Again, I will build you, and you shall be
rebuilt. Jeremiah 31:3-4
The mind is the
battlefield. Joyce Meyer
The mind often misses what
the spirit is trying to reveal because it’s too busy. Joyce Meyer
The more good habits you
develop, the less you will have to fight with the bad ones. Joyce Meyer
The more people I reach,
the more people there are that have opinions about me. Not everyone loves me,
but I have to be okay no matter what they think about me. Joyce Meyer
The more relaxed you stay
in life, the more powerful you are! Joyce Meyer
The more thankful you are,
the happier you will be! Joyce Meyer
The more we see the
amazing things God has done for us, the more deeply we fall in love with Him. Joyce
Meyer
The more we stop and ask
God for directions, the more sensitive we become to the signals within from the
Holy Spirit. He doesn’t scream and yell at us, He simply whispers, “Uh, I
wouldn’t do that if I were you.” He will always lead us to life and inner peace
if we yield to Him. Joyce Meyer
The more you meditate on
God’s Word, the stronger you’ll become and the more easily you’ll win the
victories. Joyce Meyer
The more you study God’s
Word, the more answers you’ll find regarding daily life. Joyce Meyer
The more you trust Jesus
and keep your eyes focused on Him, the more life you’ll have. Trusting God
brings life. Believing brings rest. So stop trying to figure everything out,
and let God be God in your life. Joyce Meyer
The most beautiful thing a
woman can wear is confidence. Joyce Meyer
The most effective prayers
are usually the simple prayers. Joyce Meyer
The most miserable way to
live is to be controlled by your emotions. Emotions are not sinful, but to live
by them is tragic. Joyce Meyer
The next time you feel
your peace slipping away, stop and remember the benefits you’ve been given as a
child of God. Joyce Meyer
The number one reason why
people give up so fast is because they tend to look at how far they still have
to go, instead of how far they have gotten. Joyce Meyer
The one thing everybody’s
looking for is unconditional love. We all need someone to love us just the way
we are. Joyce Meyer
The One who is in you is
greater than the one who is in the world. Joyce Meyer
The only acceptable
attitude when fear comes is “I will not fear because God is with me.” Joyce
Meyer
The only answer is to
“stop worrying and place your trust in God”. He has the future all planned, and
He knows the answer to everything. His Word promises us that He will take care
of us if we trust in Him. “Lord, my future is in Your hands. In reality, I
cannot truly control anything. I humble myself before You and cast my cares
into Your hands. Thank You for Your care. Amen.” Joyce Meyer
The only answer to fear is
faith in God, knowing He loves you unconditionally and individually. Joyce
Meyer
The only person you should
try to be better than, is the person you were yesterday. Joyce Meyer
The only way to break the
chains of fear and doubt is to know in your heart that God loves you … no
matter what. Joyce Meyer
The point of walking with
God is to keep going. Joyce Meyer
The power of God is
available to you today to help you do whatever you need to do and with a smile
on your face! Joyce Meyer
The purpose of faith isn’t
always to keep us from having trouble. It is often to carry us through trouble.
If we never had any trouble, we wouldn’t need any faith. Joyce Meyer
The quickest way to peace
is learning to submit every decision in your life to God. Joyce Meyer
The right timing is not
always our timing. Joyce Meyer
The source of our stress
isn’t really difficulties, circumstances and situations … it’s our attitude and
approach toward them. Joyce Meyer
The Spirit of God never
quits … He always gets us across the finish line. Joyce Meyer
The term revolution means:
a sudden, radical and complete change from the way things are normally done. I
love that definition because I really feel that in order for us to start
walking in the kind of love that Christ commanded us to – the “love your neighbor
as yourself” kind – it’s going to take a radical change in our current
behavior. The church has become passive and selfish, and it’s going to take a
revolution to get us back to the place where we are not just talking the talk,
but walking in a love that shows the world Christ’s love. Joyce Meyer
The truth is God created
us to have relationship with us. He wants to love us and take care of us, and
He wants us to love Him. That’s where our walk with Christ has to start. Joyce
Meyer
The truth is, anyone can
start projects. The world is filled with just-started projects that looked
great at the time but were never completed. Joyce Meyer
The truth is, if we don’t
learn to submit to authority, we won’t ever learn to submit to God. Joyce
Meyer
The truth of the matter is
enjoyment of life is your choice. Joyce Meyer
The ultimate freedom is to
be free from the need to impress others. Joyce Meyer
The unconditional love of
God is the cure for everything that ails us. Joyce Meyer
The way anything is
developed is through practice, practice, practice and more practice. Joyce
Meyer
The way we think about
people affects how we treat them. Joyce Meyer
The whole secret to
avoiding stress is following the leadership of the Holy Spirit. Joyce Meyer
The Word of God in your
mouth is stronger than anything that’s ever been said to you. Joyce Meyer
The Word of God is active,
energizing, sharp and powerful like a two-edged sword. Joyce Meyer
The Word of God is good
news. The answer is in the good news (Luke 4:18-19).
The Word of God, spoken
out loud and in faith, is the most powerful weapon you have against the enemy. Joyce
Meyer
The words we speak have
tremendous power to impact our lives, as well as those around us. Joyce
Meyer
The words you say could
hurt or help you. “Change your words, change your life”. Joyce Meyer
There are a lot of
“chicken Christians”. Chickens are generally afraid of life, and they seldom
fly or reach their potential in life. And when a storm comes, all they seem to
do is flap around the chicken yard, stirring up dirt and running to the chicken
house. Joyce Meyer
There are many things that
happen every day that we could murmur about if we let ourselves go there. But
they aren’t really worth the effort it takes to get upset and gripe about it. Joyce
Meyer
There are no drive-thru
breakthroughs. Breakthroughs take time. Joyce Meyer
There are no drive-thru
breakthroughs. If you want a breakthrough, you’ve got to go through. Joyce
Meyer
There are no unanswered
prayers. God either says “yes”, “no”, or “wait”. Joyce Meyer
There are people in the
world who aren’t necessarily Christians, but they’re just naturally nice people
who do a lot for other people. Those people will almost always be prosperous
people. Joyce Meyer
There are some hurts that
we experience that can be forgiven, but we won’t forget them. Joyce Meyer
There are two kinds of
pain: the pain of change and the pain of never changing and remaining the same.
Joyce Meyer
There is a treasure in
your trial. Joyce Meyer
There is absolutely no
power in our human effort to live holy. It is only by His grace. And the result
of receiving grace is we get better at living like Christ, which is something
we all want, right? Joyce Meyer
There is life in the Word!
Joyce Meyer
There is never one moment
of your life that God doesn’t love you! Joyce Meyer
There is no danger of
developing eyestrain from looking at the bright side of things. Joyce Meyer
There is no hope of anyone
going to Heaven unless they believe this truth I am presenting. You cannot go
to Heaven unless you believe with all your heart that Jesus took your place in
Hell. Joyce Meyer
There is no man on Earth
or devil in Hell who can keep you from the very best God put in you. Joyce
Meyer
There is no power shortage
in Heaven … all we’ve got to do is plug in. Joyce Meyer
There is nothing as tragic
as being alive and not enjoying life … life should be celebrated. Joyce
Meyer
There is one right fear
that we should have. And that is the reverential fear of God. Joyce Meyer
There is something you can
do that no one else can do just like you, so love your life. Joyce Meyer
There may be things you
don’t understand, but God loves you. Joyce Meyer
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. Joyce Meyer
There’s a part of you –
the born-again part, your spirit – that’s dead to sin. That’s why it bothers
you now when you sin. The ‘wilderness’ part of you – your soul – is your
unrenewed mind, out-of-control emotions, and stubborn will. Joyce Meyer
There’s good in every
moment. Joyce Meyer
There’s no happier person
than a truly thankful, content person. Joyce Meyer
There’s no reason to look
back when you have so much to look forward to. Joyce Meyer
There’s no such thing as a
drive-through breakthrough. Joyce Meyer
There’s no such thing as
microwave maturity. Joyce Meyer
There’s nothing more
dangerous to the kingdom of darkness than a believer with the Word of God in
his mouth. Joyce Meyer
There’s nothing that you
can’t overcome with God on your side. Joyce Meyer
There’s nothing you’ve
done wrong that is too big for God to fix. He can truly make all things work
together for good, not only for you but for your children too. Joyce Meyer
There’s only one response
we should have toward fear: I will not fear. Joyce Meyer
Things in themselves have
no life in them. A car can’t comfort or encourage you. A house means nothing if
there’s no life or love inside. Joyce Meyer
Think of creative ways you
can express God’s love to three people, and do it. Joyce Meyer
Thinking good thoughts is
the way to overcome the habit of thinking bad ones. Joyce Meyer
Thinking on old wounds
from the past will not benefit you; bad memories do not help you live a joyful
life. Joyce Meyer
This is the day God has
made and I’m going to enjoy it! I can handle whatever comes my way today
through Christ who is my strength. Joyce Meyer
Those who hurt us are
usually hurting themselves. And their pain may be so strong that they are not
even aware they are hurting us. Joyce Meyer
Thoughts prepare us for
action. Wherever the mind goes, the man follows. Joyce Meyer
Three ways to simplify
your life: 1) Let go and learn to enjoy 2) Don’t try to be someone else – just
be yourself 3) Calm down and cheer up. Joyce Meyer
Through my obedience to
God, He has been able to use my life to help others. It’s been a great journey
and I’m looking forward to all the things God has in the future. Joyce Meyer
Through the Holy Spirit
our lives become bright lights everywhere we go. Joyce Meyer
Time after time, story
after story, page after page, God offers a new beginning. The circumstances
change, and the stories vary, but the grace of God never wavers. Joyce Meyer
To be more than a
conqueror means that before you ever get a problem, you already know that you
can overcome it through Christ. Joyce Meyer
To compromise simply means
that you go a tiny bit below what you know is right. Joyce Meyer
To enjoy your life, you
must be at peace with yourself. Joyce Meyer
To feel fear doesn’t mean
that you’re a coward. Boldness is taking action in the presence of fear – do it
afraid! Joyce Meyer
To have peace, keep your
eyes on God. Get alone to fellowship with Him. If you have to get in a closet
and sit in the middle of all your shoes, and hang clothes over your head to
hide in order to find solitude, do it! Then focus on all that God has done for
you. Joyce Meyer
To live in God’s peace, we
have to pursue it. Go deeper in your relationship with God and you’ll have more
of His peace in your heart. Joyce Meyer
Today can be effortless as
you depend on God’s grace to do what He has called you to do. Joyce Meyer
Today I am strong and
energetic. I have favor with God and man everywhere I go. Joyce Meyer
Today I choose Happy. Joyce
Meyer
Today I confess all my
care upon the Lord, for He cares for me. Joyce Meyer
Today I confess I am a
believer and not a doubter. Joyce Meyer
Today I confess that I am
slow to speak, quick to hear, and slow to anger. Joyce Meyer
Today I confess that work
is good and I enjoy my job. Joyce Meyer
Today is a brand-new
beginning for me. Joyce Meyer
Today is the perfect day
to begin with God again. Joyce Meyer
Today you can make the
devil mad by deciding to “be happy” no matter what is going on in your life! Joyce
Meyer
Too many Christians live
their lives like slaves – to the devil – because they believe His lies more
than they trust God. Joyce Meyer
Too often we spend our
time in the past or the future. We need to learn to live now – mentally, as
well as physically and spiritually. Joyce Meyer
Traditions are a common
part of our lives. They can be good, and not all traditions are wrong, but
sometimes they can take the joy out of life. Joyce Meyer
True freedom never comes
until we fully realize that we don’t need to struggle to get from man what God
freely gives us: love, acceptance, approval, security, worth and value. Joyce
Meyer
True happiness comes from
a lifestyle of giving to others. Joyce Meyer
Trust and faith bring joy
to life and help relationships grow to their maximum potential. Joyce Meyer
Trust Me, I’ve got this.
God. Joyce Meyer
Trusting God brings life.
Believing brings rest. Joyce Meyer
Trusting God is simply
believing that He loves you. Joyce Meyer
Trusting God is the
greatest stress reliever in the world. Joyce Meyer
Trusting in God is the key
to moving forward into the things God has for us. Joyce Meyer
Truth: “And we are
confident that He hears us when we ask for anything that pleases Him”, 1 John
5:14. Joyce Meyer
Truth: I can do all things
through Christ who strengthens me. Joyce Meyer
Try a thing you haven’t
done three times. Once to get over the fear of doing it. Twice to learn how to
do it. And a third time to figure out whether you like it or not. Joyce
Meyer
Trying to meet everyone’s
expectations is like trying to drain the ocean with a teaspoon. Joyce Meyer
Turn your situation over
to God because He can do more in a moment than you can do in a lifetime. Joyce
Meyer
Two steps forward, one
step back, is still forward progress. Joyce Meyer
Unforgiveness is like a
poison and a bitterness in your soul. It’s time to get rid of that poison. Joyce
Meyer
Unity increases power! Joyce
Meyer
Until we accept and
approve of ourselves, no amount of approval from others will keep us
permanently secure. Joyce Meyer
Until you pray, God cannot
work. Joyce Meyer
Upgrade your faith.
Believe that something good is happening to you and through you right now. Joyce
Meyer
Victory is not the absence
of problems, it is the presence of power. Joyce Meyer
Walk with God and run from
evil. Joyce Meyer
Walking in love means
being a blessing to somebody else. Joyce Meyer
Watch out for joy
stealers: gossip, criticism, complaining, faultfinding, and a negative
judgmental attitude. Joyce Meyer
Watch what you say about
yourself. Joyce Meyer
We all face storms in
life. Some are more difficult than others, but we all go through trials and
tribulation. That’s why we have the gift of faith. Joyce Meyer
We all fail in life, but
nobody has to be a failure. Failing at a thing doesn’t make you a failure. You
are only a failure when you quit trying. Joyce Meyer
We all get weary
sometimes, and we tend to think that life is what makes us weary. Joyce
Meyer
We all have challenges,
but we make them better or worse by the way we talk about them. Joyce Meyer
We all have two lives: an
inner life and an outer life. Your inner life is your soul life, which includes
your mind, will and emotions. Your outer life is your physical life. And while
God cares about every detail of your life, He is more concerned with your inner
life than your outer life. Joyce Meyer
We almost always see only
what’s wrong with other people and not what’s wrong with us. Joyce Meyer
We are all capable of
great things if we will live courageously. Joyce Meyer
We are born again into an
ever-living hope, and the devil can’t take it away from us. Joyce Meyer
We are not a failure just
because we fail at something. Nobody is a failure unless they quit trying! Joyce
Meyer
We are not filled with the
Spirit of God to do easy things. He fills us with His Spirit so we can do
impossible things. Joyce Meyer
We are overcomers through
Him who overcame. Joyce Meyer
We are to have genuine,
pure, fervent love for others above everything else we do. If we can manage
only one thing in our lives, it should be to love other people. Joyce Meyer
We believers do not have
to live a powerless life. We are to live as Christ lived – empowered by the
Holy Spirit. Joyce Meyer
We can approach God’s
Throne with boldness because we are confident in the power of what Jesus
accomplished for us at the Cross. Joyce Meyer
We can be confident that
God is working in us, changing us, and helping us grow through our faith in
Him, so we can fulfill His good plans for our lives. Joyce Meyer
We can do whatever we need
to do with His (God’s) help … and smiles on our faces! Joyce Meyer
We can fear things into
existence. Fear looks into the future and imagines the worst that can happen. Joyce
Meyer
We can hide things from
people, we can even hide them from ourselves, but we cannot hide them from God.
Joyce Meyer
We can improve our
relationships with others by leaps and bounds if we become encouragers instead
of critics. Joyce Meyer
We can judge sin, but not
people. We need to be very careful about pointing out other people’s faults. Joyce
Meyer
We can learn to say yes
when God says yes and no when He says no. Joyce Meyer
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 is 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. Joyce
Meyer
We cannot conquer anything
by running away from it or trying to avoid it – we must go through it. Joyce
Meyer
We cannot control what
others do to us, but through God we can control the way we respond to them. Joyce
Meyer
We clearly see in God’s
Word that anything He tells us to do, He will give us the ability to do it. But
do we really believe it? Do we want to believe it? It’s easier to come up with
excuses for why we can’t do things that are hard or that we really don’t want
to do. Joyce Meyer
We develop Godly character
when we treat people the way we want to be treated, not the way they may treat
us. Joyce Meyer
We do not need
self-confidence; we need God-confidence. Joyce Meyer
We don’t always help
people by doing everything for them. That type of behavior can actually
contribute to their problems because it helps them never take responsibility on
their own. Joyce Meyer
We don’t buy His love. He
loves us freely. Joyce Meyer
We don’t grow when things
are easy, we grow when we face challenges. Joyce Meyer
We don’t have any trouble
treating God right, but we need to work at treating each other right. Joyce
Meyer
We don’t live out of a
“Do”. We live out of a “Done”. What Christ has already done! Joyce Meyer
We don’t obey the Word
just to get something…we obey the Word because we love God. Joyce Meyer
We don’t want to survive,
we want to be healed. Joyce Meyer
We get into trouble when
we start expecting people to do for us what only God can do. Joyce Meyer
We gotta stop being Sunday
morning warriors and Monday morning whiners. Joyce Meyer
We have an epidemic of
insecure people in our society today. Joyce Meyer
We have to be willing to
make right choices no matter what anyone else does. Joyce Meyer
We have to each be
satisfied with doing the part that God has called us to do. We have to trust
Him with our assignment. Joyce Meyer
We have to get rid of
excuses. No matter why you are the way you are, don’t let it be an excuse to
stay that way. Joyce Meyer
We have to go with our
dreams despite all the what ifs and doubts. When we make our step, God shows
up. Joyce Meyer
We have to learn to live
beyond our feelings and do what’s right even when we feel wrong. Joyce Meyer
We have to let God take us
through things and let Him work in us so our mess becomes our message.
Difficult things that we have endured in our past prepare us for God’s
blessings in our future. Joyce Meyer
We live in a time-crunched
world, and just about everything we do seems to be urgent. Joyce Meyer
We live in an imperfect
world, and imperfect people surround us each day. Joyce Meyer
We must have His thoughts
in order to do His will. Joyce Meyer
We must learn to do what
is right even when we don’t feel like doing it. Joyce Meyer
We must learn to think
like God thinks! Joyce Meyer
We must remember that
there are different seasons in our lives and let God do what He wants to do in
each of those seasons. Joyce Meyer
We must remember that
whatever God tells us to do, He always gives us the ability, by His grace and
with His help, to do it. Joyce Meyer
We must remember we are
stewards of what God has provided for us, not owners. Joyce Meyer
We must stop trying to
make things happen the way we want, and get to the place where we desire to
please God more than ourselves. The Christ in us has to supersede what we want.
Faith and the Word of God will help you overcome worry. Joyce Meyer
We need backbone, not
wishbone. Joyce Meyer
We need to do what we can
do and let God do what we cannot. Joyce Meyer
We need to follow
something that is much wiser and more dependable than our feelings, and that’s
the Word of God. Joyce Meyer
We need to glance at our
problems and stare at Jesus. Joyce Meyer
We need to learn to put
God’s wisdom into practice so we can enjoy our lives. Joyce Meyer
We need to learn to think
like God thinks. We must learn to identify with Christ and the new person He
has made us to be. Joyce Meyer
We need to put no
confidence in the arm of flesh, but rather trust ourselves entirely to the arm
of the Lord. Joyce Meyer
We need to start defending
one another instead of exposing one another’s faults. Joyce Meyer
We need to stop trying to
fix things that only God can fix because the only one who is clapping is the
devil, saying, “Ha,Ha,Ha! Got ‘em again!”. Joyce Meyer
We need to take God out of
our “emergency only” box and allow Him into our everyday life. Joyce Meyer
We often say that God is
never late, but generally He’s not 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
We receive by faith, not
through works. Joyce Meyer
We should be reminding
ourselves that no matter how many problems may be facing us, the One who is
with us is greater than all those who oppose us. Joyce Meyer
We should never let
material things get ahead of God or become so important in our lives that we
can’t walk away from them if He tells us to. Anything you own that has a hold
on you is a problem. Joyce Meyer
We suffer much agony
because we try to get from people what only God can give us, which is a sense
of worth and value. Joyce Meyer
We want our marriage to be
a triumph, not a tragedy. Joyce Meyer
We worship God with our
entire life – with every decision we make and everything we do. Joyce Meyer
We’re all different.
Honor, respect and value the ways that others aren’t like you. Joyce Meyer
We’re not doing God a
favor by praying each day. We are doing ourselves the favor. Joyce Meyer
We’re not like robots. God
promises to guide us through the Holy Spirit, but He gives us the freedom to
make our own decisions. Joyce Meyer
We’ve all got our own
brand of problems. You can be pitiful or powerful. Take your pick. Joyce
Meyer
What an honor to be able
to say, “No matter what kind of problem that I have in my life, I get to trust
God. God loves me. I don’t have to live in fear. God is on my side and I get to
give God my problems, cast my care, go on and enjoy my life while God works on
my situation!” Joyce Meyer
What does God require of
us? Our part is to believe. Our work is to trust the Lord. His requirement is
that we let go and let God. Joyce Meyer
What God can do for you
will override anything anyone else has done to you. Joyce Meyer
What we may see as a dead
end, God sees as a new beginning. Joyce Meyer
What we need to understand
is that when traditions become laws, rules, obligations and expectations others
put on us that we don’t want to fulfill, then they lose real meaning and steal
the joy from our lives. And if we’re too religious, we won’t be able to be led
by the Holy Spirit and enjoy an intimate relationship with Him. Joyce Meyer
What you do in front of
people is nothing if you are not living the same life at home behind closed
doors. Joyce Meyer
What’s real freedom? Real
freedom is being able to not have my way and still be just as happy as if I
did. Joyce Meyer
Whatever challenges you
the most, decide now that you are going to set your mind for total victory. Joyce
Meyer
Whatever God has is always
better than anything the devil has. Joyce Meyer
Whatever is going on in
your life right now, don’t lose hope. Your breakthrough is coming! Joyce
Meyer
Whatever is making you so
angry, it’s time for you to give it to God and get over it. Joyce Meyer
Whatever you think your
weakness is, if you give it to God, then He can do something with it that will
just amaze the world. Joyce Meyer
Whatever your mess is, be
determined to do what’s right so you can see good results, no matter how long
it takes. God is faithful to His Word. Joyce Meyer
Whatever your situation,
God wants to heal you, strengthen you, and lead you to a place where you can
enjoy life again. Joyce Meyer
When all hope seems to be
lost, the Lord will pull you up from the pit of despair and you will live again
(Ezekiel 37:11-14).
When doubt comes against
us, we have to lift up the shield of faith. We do this when we open our mouth
and say what God’s Word says, rather than grumbling and complaining about the
problem. Joyce Meyer
When Elijah battled
depression, God didn’t send an angel to preach to him, tell him he needed to
pray more, or condemn him for feeling that way. He sent an angel to comfort him
while he rested. Some people just need to be comforted.
When faced with a
decision, going to God is a first option, not a last resort. Joyce Meyer
When fear knocks on the
door, send faith to answer. Joyce Meyer
When God brings an
“unwelcome disturbance” into our lives, He never asks it it’s convenient. The
Lord expects to be trusted. Joyce Meyer
When God is on your side,
there is no way you can lose. Joyce Meyer
When I ask people to give,
I can’t be on television if they don’t. I can’t help people if I don’t – I mean
it takes money. Joyce Meyer
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. Joyce Meyer
When I wait, You O Lord strengthen
my heart. Joyce Meyer
When it comes to our
everyday habits, it’s important to ask: “Am I putting God first?” Joyce
Meyer
When Jesus comes to live
in our hearts, the seed of holiness is planted. Joyce Meyer
When life gives you
trouble, you can get bitter or better. You can go under or you can go on. Joyce
Meyer
When no one is there to
help me, I get to know Jesus really well. The narrow road of living for God and
not conforming to the ways of this world is often lonely. But the trade-off of
graining real intimacy with Christ is worth more than anything you can ever get
from the world. Joyce Meyer
When someone gives you
offense, it doesn’t mean you have to take it. Joyce Meyer
When we are insecure, we
do things to be admired by people and feel good about ourselves, but when our
security is in Christ, we do what we do through Him and for Him alone. Joyce
Meyer
When we are truly
confident and secure, the opinions of others cannot control us. Joyce Meyer
When we believe the best
of people, we let go of each thing they do that is hurtful to us. And we choose
to think things like, “I don’t believe they meant to hurt me.” “Maybe they’re
having a bad day or don’t feel well.” “They probably don’t even realize how
they sound.” Joyce Meyer
When we enter into a
personal relationship with Jesus Christ, something wonderful happens: God
begins to change our desires, and we want to be more like Him. Joyce Meyer
When we face our fears, we
can find our freedom. Joyce Meyer
When we fall down, God is
always there to pick you back up. Joyce Meyer
When we fill our thoughts
with right things, the wrong ones have no room to enter. Joyce Meyer
When we humble ourselves
and ask for God’s help, then He’s able to release His power in our situations. Joyce
Meyer
When we keep God in first
place, everything else falls into place! Joyce Meyer
When we lean on God, we
actually enter into His rest and can enjoy our lives, no matter what our
circumstances may be. Joyce Meyer
When we make a true
commitment to walk in love, it usually causes a huge shift in our lifestyle.
Many of our ways – our thoughts, our conversation, our habits – have to change.
Joyce Meyer
When we make progress
quickly, it feeds our emotions. Then, when there’s a period of waiting or we
hit a plateau, we find out how committed we really are and whether we’re going
to see things through to the finish or quit. Joyce Meyer
When we pray, we open the
door for God to come into our problems and situations and work on them. Joyce
Meyer
When we put our problem in
God’s hands, He puts His peace in our hearts. Joyce Meyer
When we really understand
grace, it takes the pressure off – we don’t live by our effort and our trying. Joyce
Meyer
When we see our
breakthrough happen, it’s often the result of what God’s been working on for
years. Joyce Meyer
When we trust God more
than our feelings, it confuses the devil. I mean, when he throws you his best
shot and he can’t budge you from believing God, he won’t know what to do with
you anymore. Joyce Meyer
When we understand God’s
love for us and His plan for us, then we can begin to realize the doors that He
wants to open for us. But we’ll only realize these things when we’re constantly
talking with Him, listening to His Voice, and growing deeper in our relationship
with Him. Joyce Meyer
When we worship the Lord,
we release the emotional or mental burden that weighs us down. It is swallowed
up in the awesomeness of God. When we keep our eyes on Him and worship, we will
always see His plan for our lives work out all things for our good. Regardless
of the difficulties you face, just keep praising God and giving Him glory.
Faith will rise in your heart, and you will overcome. Joyce Meyer
When you are in a storm,
remember that the rough weather won’t last forever! Joyce Meyer
When you are pursuing
God’s will for your life, He will give you peace. Joyce Meyer
When you are tempted to
give up, your breakthrough is probably just around the corner. Joyce Meyer
When you are the closest
to your breakthrough, the pressure is the greatest. You have come too far to
give up now! Joyce Meyer
When you become a
Christian, something truly amazing happens: God comes to live inside your
heart. You become the home of God. Joyce Meyer
When you begin to worry,
go find something to do. Get busy being a blessing to someone; to do something
fruitful. Talking about your problem or sitting alone, thinking about it, does
no good; it serves only to make you miserable. Above all else, remember that
worrying is totally useless. Worrying will not solve your problem. Joyce
Meyer
When you bring in the
light it always dispels the darkness. Joyce Meyer
When you complain you
remain. When you praise you get raised. Joyce Meyer
When you feel down, go be
a blessing to somebody else. Joyce Meyer
When you feel like it’s
too hard to obey God, remember that He will never tell you to do something
without giving you the grace, power and ability to do it. Joyce Meyer
When you fill your
thoughts with right things, the wrong ones have no room to enter. Joyce
Meyer
When you focus on how
wonderful God is and all the great things He has done … is doing … and even
will do in your life, your natural response will be praise, adoration and awe.
Don’t let yourself ever get used to it … stay amazed! Joyce Meyer
When you forgive, you must
cancel the debt. Do not spend your life paying and collecting debts. Joyce
Meyer
When you forgive, you set
someone free, and then you realize that someone is you. Joyce Meyer
When you have a problem,
don’t go to the phone. Go to the Throne. Joyce Meyer
When you learn to succeed
at being yourself, you’ll be well on your way to enjoying life more fully. Joyce
Meyer
When you make a mistake
and the devil comes and tells you ‘You’re no good’, you don’t have to take on
the guilt and condemnation he wants to put on you. No! You can immediately
confess your mistake to God, thank Him for forgiving you and cleansing you with
the Blood of Jesus, and move forward in the victory of His grace and
forgiveness. Joyce Meyer
When you need to make a
decision, don’t let your emotions vote. Joyce Meyer
When you pray be sure that
you listen as well as talk. You have things you want to say to God, but He also
has things He wants to say to you. Joyce Meyer
When you really know who
God is – that He’s for you and not against you – that He loves you, that He’s
the source of everything you need – then life gets really exciting! Joyce
Meyer
When you receive Christ,
you never have to go through a problem alone again. Joyce Meyer
When you see the least,
and feel the least, that’s often when God is doing the most. Joyce Meyer
When you stand up and you
trust God, He will give you the grace to do what you need to do in every
situation. Joyce Meyer
When you stay on the
attack, you won’t be under attack. Joyce Meyer
When you take time with
God and listen to His Voice, He renews your strength and enables you to handle
life. Joyce Meyer
When you turn the
construction of your life over to God, He will build something beautiful. Joyce
Meyer
When you walk in love, you
give up your right to be right. Joyce Meyer
When you’re in a
leadership role, you can never please all of the people all the time. There’s
also a lot of responsibility that goes along with it that others may not
realize. Joyce Meyer
When you’re in a war and
fighting a battle, and you have God as your captain, there’s no way you are not
going to win! Joyce Meyer
When you’re weary and
tempted to give up, just remember that your breakthrough may only be one day
away. Joyce Meyer
When your soul is resting,
your emotions are okay, your mind is okay, and your will is at peace with God,
not resisting what He’s doing. Joyce Meyer
Where the mind goes, the
man follows. Joyce Meyer
Where there is a rotten
root, there will always be rotten fruit. We must be rooted in Jesus Christ to
bear good fruit. Joyce Meyer
Where there is no
opposition to evil, it multiplies. Joyce Meyer
Where there is no peace,
there is no power. Joyce Meyer
Whether we’re happy with
our circumstances or not, giving God praise is so important. Joyce Meyer
While God is working on
your problem … stay calm, stay sweet, stay out of fear, and keep on keepin’ on.
Joyce Meyer
While you are waiting for
God to move, be a very thankful and grateful person for all that God has done
for you already. Joyce Meyer
Whoever you are, wherever
you are, whatever you’ve been through, it’s never too late to begin again. Joyce
Meyer
Whose pace are you moving
at? Are you keeping the pace God has set for you or someone else’s? Joyce
Meyer
Why is it that although it
takes us years to get into our messes, we expect God to get us out of them in a
few days. Joyce Meyer
Wisdom is doing now with
what you will be happy with later on. Joyce Meyer
With God we can face
anything and do anything that is His will. Joyce Meyer
With God’s help I am
continually reminded that my past does not have to control my future. Joyce
Meyer
With God’s help, I don’t
have to be aggravated or frustrated. I can stay calm and hold my peace. Joyce
Meyer
With God’s help, your past
does not have to define your future. Joyce Meyer
Without Jesus I am not
able to do one single thing, but with Him and in Him I can do all I need to do.
Joyce Meyer
Words are containers for
power. You choose what kind of power they carry. Joyce Meyer
Words are powerful; if you
change your words, you can change your life. Joyce Meyer
Words are so awesome.
Words are containers for power. They carry either creative power or destructive
power. Joyce Meyer
Worry and reasoning are
two of Satan’s most successful tools. He’ll get us started with one negative
thought and then sit back and watch us finish ourselves off. Joyce Meyer
Worry increases pressure;
prayer releases peace. Joyce Meyer
Worry is a down payment on
a problem you may never have. Joyce Meyer
Worry is like a rocking
chair … always in motion, but not going anywhere. Joyce Meyer
Worry is like rocking in a
rocking chair all day, because it keeps you busy but gets you nowhere. Joyce
Meyer
Worry is useless, so why
do it? Joyce Meyer
Worry sees the problem,
but faith sees the God who can handle the problem. Joyce Meyer
Worrying is trying to
figure out what to do to save yourself, rather than trusting in God for
deliverance. Joyce Meyer
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
You and I cannot change
ourselves, but we can spend time seeking the One who can change us. Joyce
Meyer
You are fearfully and
wonderfully made by God…a unique and valuable creation. You are not a mistake
and there’s nothing accidental about you. Joyce Meyer
You are God’s masterpiece.
Believe it! Joyce Meyer
You are loved! Joyce
Meyer
You are not free until you
have no need to impress anybody. Joyce Meyer
You are wonderfully made! Joyce
Meyer
You can be bitter or
better, but you can’t be both at the same time. Joyce Meyer
You can be pitiful or
powerful, but you can’t be both. Joyce Meyer
You can change your life
by letting the Word of God change your mind. Joyce Meyer
You can decide to trust
God or you can decide to be miserable. Joyce Meyer
You can get over a broken
past if you decide to believe that there’s nothing in your past that can keep
you from having a great future. Joyce Meyer
You can have a glorious
destiny! Joyce Meyer
You can have a life
without strife! Joyce Meyer
You can live with God’s
power (His miraculous ability, might and strength). Joyce Meyer
You can make it through
your emotional trials. Jesus wasn’t led by His feelings. And you don’t have to
be either when God lets things affect you emotionally. Seize the moment and
view it as an opportunity to step into a place of absolute trust in God. Joyce
Meyer
You can make this journey
little by little: you don’t have to give up or quit. Joyce Meyer
You can never be free
through avoidance and running away from things. Joyce Meyer
You can suffer the pain of
change or suffer remaining the way you are. Joyce Meyer
You can take all that
stress and pressure, and learn to give it to God and live in the peace and joy
He has planned for your life. Joyce Meyer
You can tell how
spiritually mature you are when somebody else gets blessed with something you
want. Joyce Meyer
You can’t be a worshipper
and a worrier at the same time. Joyce Meyer
You can’t bother God
because He picked you … you can’t impose on Him! He’s not rolling His eyes when
you have a problem. Instead, He will always remind you how far you have come,
how well you are doing, how precious you are in His sight, and how much He loves
you. God already knew your weaknesses, every flaw you would have, every time
you would fail, and He still said, “I want you”. Ephesians 1:5 declares that He
foreordained you to be adopted as His own. God is your daddy! With Him on your
side, things are bound to work out all right in the end. Joyce Meyer
You can’t fulfill all the
expectations of everyone you know, so you might as well go ahead and disappoint
them and get it over with. Joyce Meyer
You can’t have a testimony
without the test. Joyce Meyer
You can’t have peace
without grace – undeserved favor and power. Joyce Meyer
You can’t have real love
without operating in forgiveness. Love keeps giving the other person another
chance. Joyce Meyer
You cannot be selfish and
happy. Joyce Meyer
You cannot control what
happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you,
and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master
you. Joyce Meyer
You cannot have a positive
life and a negative mind. Joyce Meyer
You cannot live your life
just based on what everyone else thinks. Joyce Meyer
You don’t have to be like
everybody else or do things like everybody else. God created you to be a unique
individual, and He wants you to be free to be who He made you to be. Joyce
Meyer
You don’t have to fear
anything or anyone. Joyce Meyer
You don’t have to give way
to careless speech or complaining. You don’t have to let your feelings get in
the way of what God wants to do in your life. Joyce Meyer
You don’t have to wait
until you’re perfected to like yourself. You can start even while God’s
changing you. Joyce Meyer
You don’t need to know
what tomorrow holds. All you need to know is the One who holds tomorrow. Joyce
Meyer
You have a great God who
loves you and cares about you. Be full of hope that something good can happen
to you. God is a master at new beginnings. He loves fresh beginnings, and He
makes everything new. Joyce Meyer
You have so many
capabilities and potential. Start celebrating the life God has given you. Joyce
Meyer
You have the power to make
the world a better place by being kind to someone today. Joyce Meyer
You have to go through to
get through. Joyce Meyer
You have to realize that
you don’t have someone else’s life and you’re never going to. You better start
loving the one you got. Embrace the life you have and stop wishing you could be
someone else. Just stop all that and start saying, “God, here I am. Do what You
want to do with me.” Joyce Meyer
You know, God will give
favor to anyone who will believe Him. Every day you should confess that you
have favor everywhere you go. God will begin to open doors that you wouldn’t
believe. Joyce Meyer
You may be going through
something, but the good news is, you’re going through to victory. Joyce
Meyer
You may have had a bad
start in life, but you can have a great finish. Joyce Meyer
You may need to be
patient, but God is always faithful. Joyce Meyer
You may still feel fear,
but you don’t have to let fear stop you. Joyce Meyer
You must turn to God and
say, “Father, I need Your strength. By faith I choose to receive Your grace so
that I may forgive those who mistreated me or wronged me. I ask You to bless
them and help me go on with my life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.” Joyce Meyer
You need to be moving if
you want God to show you which way to go. Joyce Meyer
You never know how close
you are. Never give up on your dreams. Joyce Meyer
You never really know
yourself until you see yourself under pressure. Joyce Meyer
You only have one life,
and if it is not going in the direction you want it to, now is the time to make
changes. Joyce Meyer
You really never know
yourself until you see yourself under pressure. Joyce Meyer
You see, rebellion, and
the disobedience it causes, keeps us from having the power of God that’s
available to us as Christians. Joyce Meyer
You see, you are a spirit,
you have a soul, and you live in a body. You have emotions, you have thoughts,
you have a will, and you have a conscience. You are a complex being! And Jesus
came to heal every single part of you. There’s not one part that He doesn’t
want to make completely whole. Joyce Meyer
You think when you’re
having to wait, that means God doesn’t love you. Maybe God has got something
deeper in mind than your immediate relief. Joyce Meyer
You were created to do
amazing things. Joyce Meyer
You were not an accident.
You were designed on purpose for a purpose. Joyce Meyer
You will never enjoy life
if you do not enjoy yourself. Joyce Meyer
You will never forgive if
you wait until you feel like it. Joyce Meyer
You will never see the
end, if you give up in the middle. Joyce Meyer
You’ll have to give God a
little more room in your life if you really want peace. Joyce Meyer
You’ll never get up on the
outside until you get up on the inside. Joyce Meyer
You’re going to make it! Joyce
Meyer
You’re no surprise to God.
He knew what He was getting when He made you. Joyce Meyer
You’re not a failure until
you stop trying. If you have no other testimony, you have this one: “I’m still
here.” Joyce Meyer
You’re not free, unless
you come to the place where you have nothing to prove. Joyce Meyer
You’re so caught up in
grumbling, complaining, and seeing what’s wrong that you have no energy or time
to appreciate what’s good. Joyce Meyer
You’re worth something
because God says you’re worth something – not because of what people think or
say about you. Joyce Meyer
You’ve been set apart by
God to do amazing things. And better yet, you’ve been given the Holy Spirit to
help you do it! Joyce Meyer
You’ve got just as much
opportunity as everybody else. It just depends on what you’re willing to
believe and how you’re willing to live. Joyce Meyer
You’ve got to be very
careful that you don’t try to make things happen. Joyce Meyer
You’ve gotta learn how to
think right before you can live right. Joyce Meyer
Your attitude belongs to
you, and it’s your choice if you want to have a good one. Joyce Meyer
Your attitude belongs to
you, and nobody can force you to have a bad one if you don’t want to. Joyce
Meyer
Your emotions are very
unstable and should never be the foundation for direction in your life. Joyce
Meyer
Your faith is not to help
you avoid problems, it’s to help you go through them with stability. Joyce
Meyer
Your fellowship with God
flows freely when you’re willing to forgive, but it gets blocked by
unforgiveness. Joyce Meyer
Your future has no place
for the regrets of your past. Joyce Meyer
Your future has no room
for your past. Joyce Meyer
Your future is as bright
as the promises of God!
Your joy comes from how
you think and the choices you make in life. Joyce Meyer
Your life matters. Joyce
Meyer
Your mind can be a
junkyard or a treasure chest, and you alone have the ability to choose what it
will be. You can think “power-enhancing” thoughts or “power-draining” thoughts.
Start making the right choice today. Joyce Meyer
Your mouth is a powerful
tool either for God or for the enemy … you can either speak positive,
uplifting, encouraging things into existence in your life, or produce negative,
gloomy and discouraging things. The mouth can be used for blessing or destruction,
not only in our lives, but also in the lives of others. Joyce Meyer
Your soul is your mind,
your will and your emotions. When the Word gets rooted in there and begins to
change your mind, it begins to heal your emotions and turn your will away from
self-will and onto doing the will of God. Joyce Meyer
Your thoughts will take
you where you want to go. Joyce Meyer
Your value should not be
determined by how somebody else has treated you. Joyce Meyer
Your word is your honor.
If you say you’re going to do something, then you need to do it. Joyce Meyer
Your worst day with Jesus
will always be better than your best day without Him. Joyce Meyer
Fear is a dead end, but
faith always has a future. Joyce Meyer
You cannot mistreat people
and have working faith.
Faith works in an obedient
heart.
