Whatever is making you so angry, it's time for you to give it to God and get over it. (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. View quote
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. View quote
Joyce Meyer
It's certainly not wrong to want to be a better person. God gave us that desire. View quote
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. View quote
Joyce Meyer
A lot of people don't enjoy their jobs, and it's one of the main things we like to complain about. View quote
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. View quote
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. View quote
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. View quote
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. View quote
Joyce Meyer
Life is not fair; God is. (Joyce Meyer)
When you're in a leadership role, you can never please all of the people all of the time. There's also a lot of responsibility that goes along with it that others may not realize. View quote
Joyce Meyer
I just really believe people have to get hungry. I think maybe what we need to do, instead of trying to stuff our beliefs down people's throats, is just pray for them to really be hungry and to see their neediness. View quote
Joyce Meyer
I've learned that usually, the less I know about other people, the better off I am. View quote
Joyce Meyer
Any time we are misused or used for a purpose other than what God intended us for, it's damaging. View quote

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. View quote
Joyce Meyer
People who pity themselves think, 'Why would I try to do anything? I'll just fail.' View quote
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!' View quote
Joyce Meyer
As you pray for the Holy Spirit to make you aware of thoughts that come into your mind that don't line up with God's Word, you'll begin to realize when those thoughts come and you can renew your mind with the Word. View quote
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)
I've learned through my own 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. View quote
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. View quote
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. View quote
Joyce Meyer
Because my dad abused me, I was determined to never let a man tell me what to do. God clearly showed me that I needed to be a submissive wife if I wanted to be effective in ministry. The truth is, if we don't learn to submit to authority, we won't ever learn to submit to God. View quote
