| 3e42dc8 | Jesus did not die for us so we could have a religion. He died so we could have our sins forgiven. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| d5646c0 | God wants to teach us to walk in the Spirit, not the flesh, and that includes emotions. Unless we make a firm decision to "fear not," we will never be free from the power of it." | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 92261b3 | Take one of God's promises, like Joshua 1:9 (NIV), and mutter it over and over under your breath: Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 39892b7 | I will give them one heart [a new heart] and I will put a new spirit within them; and I will take the stony [unnaturally hardened] heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh [sensitive and responsive to the touch of their God]... EZEKIEL 11:19 | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 62bf419 | Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now give and bequeath to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. JOHN 14:27 | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 56addb2 | Encouraging someone and speaking truth into someone's life when God asks you to do so are healthy and wonderful things--but it's never right to make a quick, dismissive judgment. Our judgments based on external appearances don't have all the information and wisdom that | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 93ca926 | Love is grieved at injustice. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 0573f24 | Have you ever gone to the furniture store to buy a chair without sitting in it? Have you ever purchased a car without test-driving it? Of course not, and God also tests us to reveal the quality of our faith. No matter what we think of ourselves, we find out what we are truly like in times of difficulty. Good times don't bring the worst out of us, but hard times do. That is why God says these difficult times are good for us. They allow us to.. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| dc5aa81 | Prayer and Action Go Hand in Hand "Prayer and action go hand in hand" (Nehemiah 4:17). I remember the frustration experienced in my home because of homework. Each day my kids would return from school, we would argue over when and where and how to do their nightly assignments. The ordeal stressed us and caused family strife. I decided to take it to God in prayer. I hoped that God would change my childrens' attitudes so that they woul.. | Kimberley Payne | ||
| 220515f | Once again we should put our energy into praying and let God work. When we pray it opens the door for God to work and then He gets the glory when change does occur. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| e253fc1 | Immediately, the water turned into wine. This was the first recorded miracle of Jesus' ministry on earth and I want to remind you that His miracles did not stop there. He will also do miracles in your life if you obey Him, and offer yourself as a clean pot He can fill. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 40726aa | Speak God's Mind Hear, for I will speak excellent and princely things; and the opening of my lips shall be for right things. PROVERBS 8:6 One of our biggest mistakes we make is that we sometimes answer people too quickly, just giving them something off the top of our head. Only a fool utters his whole mind (see Proverbs 29:11 KJV). Those who speak frequently and hastily are always in trouble, as the Bible says, "There are those who speak ra.. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 0d5ab4c | When you try to understand God's purpose for your spirit so you can have the passion He desires for you, it requires a certain amount of trust and belief. Trust that God is in control, and believe that He will give you what you need to achieve and succeed! If you struggle in this area, here are some verses to look up and some of God's promises to think about. 1. God will never abandon you. (See Hebrews 13:5.) 2. God wants the best for you. .. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| bc4f59e | We can look at Joseph's example and realize through good times and bad, we must stay the course, being diligent and enthusiastic about what God brings. If He brings you to it, we must remember, He will bring you through it as well. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 5c42862 | Never lag in zeal and in earnest endeavor; be aglow and burning with the Spirit, serving the Lord. ROMANS 12:11 | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 2356406 | Trust in Him Have you decided to enjoy today? Trust that God is with you every day, in every moment--the big moments and the ordinary--and He wants you to enjoy them | Joyce Meyer | ||
| e139804 | Be Filled at All Times Do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery; but ever be filled and stimulated with the [Holy] Spirit. (EPHESIANS 5:18) It is important for you to know that you are instructed in God's Word to "ever be filled" with the Spirit--that is, to be filled at all times. To do that, it is necessary to give Him first place in our lives. Often this requires discipline, because many other things demand our time and attenti.. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 348faca | God tries to tell us in His Word how much He loves us and He accepts us, and that even though He already knows every mistake we will ever make, He still chose us for Himself. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 54347ce | Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden and overburdened, and I will cause you to rest. [I will ease and relieve and refresh your souls.] MATTHEW 11:28 | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 87750b9 | Real love is a decision concerning the way we behave in our relationships with other people. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| be2fed3 | Trust in Him How relaxed are you? Your answer is directly related to how much you trust God. It may take you many years, like it did me, to fully trust Him, but each day will be better and better as you trust more and learn to relax. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 0cb3acb | He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners... ISAIAH 61:1 NIV | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 8cf2160 | POWER THOUGHT 1 I can do whatever I need to do in life through Christ. "I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christ's sufficiency]." Philippians 4:13" | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 05c9cd9 | Understanding that we are forgiven and cleansed, and knowing who we are in Christ sets us free from the need to impress others. As long as we know who we are, we don't have to be overly concerned about what others think of us. Once we know who we are and accept ourselves, we no longer have anything to prove. When we have nothing to prove we can relax and be at ease in every situation. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| fd98338 | La vida no esta libre de problemas, y nunca lo estara. Solamente encontraras a un grupo de personas que estan libres de problemas, y tienes que ir al cementerio de tu ciudad para encontrarlas. Mientras tengamos aliento, vamos a tener epocas de abundancia y epocas en que luchemos, epocas en que las circunstancias sean buenas y otras en que sean malas. Que las circunstancias hagan lo que quieran; en cuanto a ti, decide permanecer estable. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 01e8227 | Making the Right Decisions Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to all generously and without criticizing, and it will be given to him. James 1:5 HCSB Some decisions are easy to make because the consequences of those decisions are small. When the person behind the counter asks, "Want fries with that?" the necessary response requires little thought because the aftermath of that decision is relatively unimportant. Some.. | Freeman Smith | ||
| f422c40 | The Lord has declared that He will restore me to health and heal my wounds. --JEREMIAH 30:17 (NIV) | Joyce Meyer | ||
| f251ece | It's very hard to think negative thoughts about someone you're taking to the Lord every day. You'll be amazed at how God will change your heart toward that person; your thoughts and ultimately your actions could very well change the way he behaves. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 550b5e7 | APRIL 18 Some Things Never Happen You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy, at Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore. PSALM 16:11 Many times we get upset about things that never happen. Satan likes to get us anxious about things that are not even real problems. Jesus said, "The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (.. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 2674077 | APRIL 17 Seeing in the Darkness God is faithful (reliable, trustworthy, and therefore ever true to His promise, and He can be depended on); by Him you were called into companionship and participation with His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. 1 CORINTHIANS 1:9 There are times you just can't see through the darkness that seems to be closing in around you. It is in those times of endurance and patience that your faith is stretched and you learn to .. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 6b7626c | He Himself bore my sins in his body on the tree, so that I might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds I have been healed. --1 PETER 2:24 (NIV) | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 45f08fc | Believers who are living in close fellowship with God are not going to think about how terrible they are. They will have righteousness-based thoughts that come through meditating regularly on who they are "in Christ." | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 285d2f2 | APRIL 15 Peculiar Treasure Now therefore, if you will obey My voice in truth and keep My covenant, then you shall be My own peculiar possession and treasure from among and above all peoples; for all the earth is Mine. And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests, a holy nation [consecrated, set apart to the worship of God]. EXODUS 19:5-6 Self-rejection and self-hatred can almost seem pious in a sense. They can become a way of punishing yours.. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| dc0ff14 | shining example of perseverance is renowned pastor John Wesley. Let's take a peek into his diary . . . Sunday, A.M. May 5 Preached in St. Anne's. Was asked not to come back anymore. Sunday, P.M. May 5 Preached in St. Jude's. Can't go back there, either. Sunday, A.M. May 19 Preached in St. Somebody Else's. Deacons called special meeting and said I couldn't return. Sunday, P.M. May 19 Preached on street. Kicked off street. Sunday, A.M. May .. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 07e0f63 | Now faith is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses]. --HEBREWS 11:1 You can close your eyes and see a disaster or you can choose to see victory. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 19b0219 | Some of us are so stubborn we won't trust God until we have no other choice at all. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 9ee97aa | Remaining peaceful in hard times completely disarms the devil. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| fe76593 | Let God fight your battles while you remain at rest, trusting Him. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 34bf2ef | Isaiah 9:6-7 says, "For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder, and His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father [of Eternity], Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and of peace there shall be no end" (italics mine). The government that is upon the shoulders of Jesus is not a political government; the verse is referring to the governing of our .. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 66fef1c | We can change our quality of life by changing your attitude toward the big and small things that usually irritate and anger us. | Joyce Meyer (Author) | ||
| 67648b4 | A Time for Everything To everything there is a season, and a time for every matter or purpose under heaven. ECCLESIASTES 3:1 If it seems you have been struggling forever with negative things in your life, don't despair. There is a time and season for everything, and bad things ultimately give way to better things. Even the good things going on in your life may not stay exactly the same, because things are always changing. Sometimes changes .. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| 4b3ba02 | If we were supposed to be looking back at where we came from, we would have eyes in the back of our head, but we don't. Our eyes are at the front of us, so we can always look forward. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| ce4bd65 | God's voice to Elijah wasn't in the power of the wind, the earthquake, or the fire, but in the whisper. Elijah had a reining ear, one that was trained and sensitive toward his Master, so he did what God said to do, which saved his life. God still speaks softly and in whispers deep in our hearts today. Ask Him to give you a hearing ear so you can hear His still, small voice. | Joyce Meyer | ||
| f1cd5ce | You Are Not Alone Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he . . . [has a personal knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness--trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never forsake him]. PSALM 91:14 God wants you to know you are not alone. Satan wants you to believe you are all alone, but you are not. He wants you to believe no one understands how you feel, but that is not true. In a.. | Joyce Meyer |
