d858d31 Faith, Gratitude, and Rest So that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men (human philosophy), but in the power of God. 1 CORINTHIANS 2:5 Faith allows us to rest--both mentally and emotionally. Even our will gets a rest when we have faith in God. We don't worry or reason, we are not upset or downcast, and we are not trying to make something happen that is not God's will--we are thankful that God is in control so that we can rest! Pau..

fc78ef7 But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your failings and shortcomings. --MARK 11:25-26 One of the greatest reasons why prayer isn't answered among Christians is unforgiveness.

3c1fced i dare you Slow Down and Use Your Mind Properly 1. Be determined to pay attention to the things around you, like flowers, trees, a child playing, or your family who loves you. 2.

Ask Him to show you how He wants you to use your time that day. Joyce Meyer

93660c4 We can offer thanksgiving at all times--in every situation, in all things--and by so doing, enter into the victorious life Jesus died to give us.

0ed5970 I am a new creation in Christ (see 2 Corinthians 5:17). I can live in perfect peace (see Isaiah 26:3). I am slow to speak, quick to hear, and slow to anger (see James 1:19). I can do all things through Christ, Who strengthens me (see Philippians 4:13). I am more than a conqueror in Christ (see Romans 8:37). I can have the mind of Christ (see 1 Corinthians 2:16). I am dead to sin and alive to righteousness (see Romans 6:11). Joyce Meyer

2b04fc9 JANUARY 17 Learn to Love I give you a new commandment: that you should love one another. Just as I have loved you, so you too should love one another. JOHN 13:34 How much do you know about real love . . . God's kind of love? Everybody knows love is always spoken of in connection with Christianity. There are lots of sermons on love--it's a pretty plain and simple subject. Everybody talks about love. But where are all the people who love? God.. Joyce Meyer

9ed6cb5 God is not necessarily looking for people with amazing abilities, but He searches for availability and a person who is willing to simply do whatever He asks them to do.

84c0a08 First we must understand that when God calls us to do something, we should not say that we cannot do it. If God says we can, then we can! So often we speak out of our insecurities, or we verbalize what others have previously said about us, or what the devil has told us. Joyce Meyer
c128942 MAY 7 Let God Increase Your Strength He gives power to the faint and weary, and to him who has no might He increases strength [causing it to multiply and making it to abound].

I have learned it's better to keep up regular maintenance than to wait until a breakdown occurs and then try to repair the damage. It is wise not to use up everything you have and totally deplete.. Joyce Meyer
4a23078 I wonder how much of our mental time is spent worrying, reasoning, and fearing--possibly more than is spent on anything else. Instead of meditating on our problems, let's choose to meditate on the "alls" of God. He says you can cast "... [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you..." (1 Pet. 5:7). Let us realize how unlimited His power is and trust Him to do what we cannot do." Joyce Meyer

7253f4e Slow Is Good Understand [this], my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear [a ready listener], slow to speak, slow to take offense and to get angry. For man's anger does not promote the righteousness God [wishes and requires]. JAMES 1:19-20 In these verses, God is telling us to listen more than we talk. Think about it: If God wanted us to be quick to speak and slow to listen, He would have created us with two mouths and only one ea.. Joyce Meyer
418e3a6 If you feel guilty right now and are afraid that God is mad at you, then you are miserable. But your misery can be immediately changed to peace and joy by simply believing God's Word.

4ba55aa Jesus had much to say to the Pharisees of His day. They had a polished performance, kept the laws, followed all the rules and regulations, and were proud of it. They also had a judgmental attitude toward others, did not walk in love, and showed no mercy. Jesus called them whitewashed tombs full of dead men's bones (Matthew 23:27). Joyce Meyer

f027c32 Matthew 5:41 says to go the extra mile--don't just do what you have to do.

9789dac Perhaps you feel that God did let you down at some time in your life, or that one of His promises did not come true for you. If so, I urge you to realize that God doesn't always work within our time frame or in the ways that we would choose, but if you continue to trust Him, you will see the goodness of God in your life. Trust God at all times, and never give up. This is one of the ways that we can be faithful to God, as He is to us. Joyce Meyer
