I TRUST JOYCE MEYER UNSTINTINGLY
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
"If we speak badly about ourselves, we will feel condemned. Let's actively apply what Jesus taught in the Scripture above to speak positively about ourselves as the first step to overcoming insecurity, and never speak negatively about yourself. Speak words that empower you- not words that weaken you." The reason that I trust this lady so much is because she is so strongly anointed by the Holy Spirit, and she writes about the serious matters which we need to address, matters we need to have spoken out, matters we need to hear. To say that Mrs. Meyer is a great teacher would be an understatement, and in In Pursuit of Peace, she has now taught me how I can have this peace and really, which is not truly hard, if we follow the rules, and lean on God's wonderful and powerful hand and His grace in our daily lives. Some of the ways of keeping peace in our lives as suggested by Mrs. Meyer is to stop being double minded. Our peace can be maintained if we stop this double-mindedness, for changing our mind constantly shows instability and is not a good sign, plus double-mindedness steals our peace. Jesus intercedes for us so we should now relax, knowing that we have our Saviour who loves us carrying our burdens. Other ways of pursuing peace are:- Not overloading our day with too many things. Knowing your limits will help you take care of your schedule. Take a humble position and so avoid strife, and we shall experience peace. Designate help when you have overload. Accept yourself, and value yourself, as children of God, and you shall have peace. Stop comparing yourself with others; focus on Jesus. Look after you financials in a wise way, and if you cannot do that, get someone to help you. Resist anxiety, which steals you, joy. Don't think of another task without finishing the first. Set boundaries for your friends and family so that they would not turn up into our lives whenever they feel like, forcing us to drop our work-load, and to sit down and sort-of entertain them. These things and so much more, are offered to us, to show us how we can have peace and pursue it with all of our hearts. This book is highly recommended! Enjoy!!!

Yes, Peace Is Possible - with Him!

I love Joyce's deep spiritual wisdom based on the Word of God as well as her practicality in every day situations. She teaches us to be honest in looking first at our own weaknesses and then - with His help and relying on Him - we can start to change. Powerful and.. best of all, yes, it works!

On the Road to Peace
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
What an awesome and excellent book. Inspirational books can be hard to read because they require an open mind, honesty,and work. I usually do not finish an inspirational book and new ones just gather dust on my bookshelf. In Pursuit of Peace is one of the best books I have read. I finished it in a month's time. I took my time to read it and I even highlit and marked throughout the book. It is now amongst my books of reference. I know I will need to reinfore the lessons. I love Joyce's honesty. She admits what are/were her challenges and what is taking her to over come them. This book along with Managing Your Emotions are the only books of hers I have finished and both are good. I recommend this book for people who are just plain tired of trying to be happy and live a joyous life. In Pursuit of Peace is an excellent book on the road to peace. Life is too short and peace makes the ride easier.
Just What I Needed!

I have watched her on TV a few times and really enjoyed her program, but I have never read one of her books before. In fact, I've never read a Christian/self-help type book before. Her message is exactly what I needed to read. This book has helped me slow down and keep my priorities in order. More importantly, it's helped me strengthen my walk with God. Thank you JMM! I'm sure I'll re-read this book as I feel the need.
