ANNOUNCER: THIS PROGRAM HAS BEEN MADE POSSIBLE
BY THE FRIENDS AND PARTNERS OF JOYCE MEYER MINISTRIES.
JOYCE: BOY, PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW THAT THEY'RE LOVED.
AND IF YOU CAN BELIEVE THAT GOD LOVES YOU THEN YOU CAN BEGIN
TO LOVE YOURSELF.
AND WHEN YOU BEGIN TO LOVE YOURSELF, THEN YOU CAN BEGIN TO
LOVE OTHER PEOPLE AND YOU CAN HAVE HEALTHY, GOOD RELATIONSHIPS
AND YOU CAN ENJOY YOUR LIFE.
[MUSIC]
JOYCE: HERE'S KIND OF THE WAY IT GOES.
IF THE ROOT OF YOUR LIFE IS, WELL, THE LOVE I GET IS BASED ON
CONDITIONS, THEN I MIGHT THINK WELL, JESUS LOVES ME BUT HE
LOVES ME CONDITIONALLY THEREFORE HIS LOVE IS BASED ON MY
PERFORMANCE.
NOW, YOU SEE RIGHT AWAY, I'M TAKING ALL THE RESPONSIBILITY
FOR MAKING THIS RELATIONSHIP WORK AND I'M THINKING NOW
EVERYTHING THAT I GET FROM GOD I'VE GOT TO BUY IT WITH GOOD
BEHAVIOR AND I HAVE A GOOD PIECE OF NEWS FOR YOU TODAY:
GOD IS NOT FOR SALE.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: YOU CAN'T BUY HIM WITH 5 HOURS OF PRAYER EVERY
MORNING, READING HALF THE BIBLE EVERY MONTH, DOING GOOD WORKS.
EVERYTHING, NOW LISTEN TO ME, EVERYTHING THAT WE DO FOR GOD
SHOULD ALWAYS BE DONE BECAUSE WE LOVE HIM, NOT TO GET HIM
TO LOVE US.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: COME ON.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: SO, WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT, YOU ARE LOVED.
AND THE GOOD NEWS IS, IS WE'RE LOVED AND WE'RE PROBABLY NOT
EVEN WORTH BEING LOVED, APART FROM CHRIST BUT HE LOVES
OUR LIVES BACK FROM THE PIT OF DESTRUCTION.
MY GOODNESS, HOW GOOD IS THAT?
HE LOVES MY LIFE BACK FROM THE PIT OF DESTRUCTION.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: BOY, PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW THAT THEY'RE LOVED.
AND IF YOU CAN BELIEVE THAT GOD LOVES YOU THEN YOU CAN BEGIN TO
LOVE YOURSELF AND WHEN YOU BEGIN TO LOVE YOURSELF THEN YOU CAN
BEGIN TO LOVE OTHER PEOPLE.
AND YOU CAN HAVE HEALTHY, GOOD RELATIONSHIPS AND YOU CAN
ENJOY YOUR LIFE.
AMEN?
SO, IF I THINK THAT GOD'S LOVE FOR ME IS BASED ON MY
PERFORMANCE THEN I FEEL LIKE I HAVE TO EARN HIS LOVE
BY PLEASING HIM.
THEREFORE WHEN I PLEASE HIM--I LOVE THIS PART--I FEEL LOVED AND
WHEN I DON'T PLEASE HIM I FEEL REJECTED.
NOW, YOU SEE THIS IS WHERE THE CRAZY EMOTIONS COME IN.
BECAUSE EVERYTHING WE FEEL IS NOT TRUE.
COME ON, MATTER OF FACT, A LOT OF WHAT WE FEEL IS NOT TRUE.
SO, IF I GET UP IN THE MORNING AND I PRAY FOR AN HOUR AND A
HALF AND I READ FIVE CHAPTERS OF THE BIBLE AND THEN I FEEL GOOD
ABOUT MYSELF AND I FEEL THAT GOD LOVES ME THAT DAY--AND WE DO,
WE GET INTO THAT DON'T WE?
BUT SEE, GOD IS PLEASED WITH US BECAUSE WE BELIEVE
AND JOHN CHAPTER 6, SOME OF THE DISCIPLES SAID,
"WHAT MUST WE DO TO PLEASE GOD?
WHAT'S THE WORK THAT HE REQUIRES OF US?"
AND IT SAYS SO PLAINLY, I THINK IT'S VERSE 28, "THIS IS THE WORK
THAT GOD REQUIRES OF YOU; THAT YOU BELIEVE IN THE ONE WHOM
HE HAS SENT."
NOW, SEE, THEN MY MIND THINKS, "YEAH, AND?"
I MEAN, I DON'T THINK LIKE THAT ANYMORE BUT I, IT TOOK ME SO
LONG TO THINK, "IT CAN'T JUST BE THAT."
NOW, YES THERE ARE OTHER THINGS THAT GOD WANTS TEACH US AND
OTHER THINGS HE WANTS TO WORK INTO OUR BEHAVIOR BUT BELIEVING
IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING.
I BELIEVE IN YOU.
I BELIEVE YOU LOVE ME.
I BELIEVE YOUR WORD.
I BELIEVE I'M MADE RIGHT WITH YOU THROUGH THE BLOOD OF CHRIST.
BELIEVING.
YOU KNOW, JUST BECAUSE YOU FEEL GUILTY DOESN'T EVEN MEAN
THAT YOU ARE.
BOY, I HAD TO LEARN THAT BECAUSE I WAS ADDICTED TO GUILT.
I MEAN, I DIDN'T FEEL RIGHT IF I DIDN'T FEEL WRONG.
I MEAN, I JUST REALLY HAD A BAD CASE OF GUILT BECAUSE I GREW UP
ROOTED IN FEELING GUILTY ABOUT WHAT MY DAD WAS DOING TO ME.
I HAD A SHAME-BASED NATURE.
AND, YOU KNOW, YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE GONE THROUGH SOME KIND
OF TERRIBLE ABUSE TO HAVE THESE KINDS OF PROBLEMS.
FOR SOME REASON, BECAUSE SATAN IS THE ACCUSER OF THE BRETHREN,
I MEAN HE STARTS OUT WITH EVERYBODY TRYING TO MAKE US FEEL
GUILTY ABOUT EVERY SINGLE THING THAT WE DO.
SO IF I FEEL LIKE I'M PLEASING GOD, THEN I FEEL LOVED AND IF I
DON'T FEEL LIKE I PLEASED HIM, THEN I DON'T FEEL LOVED, BUT THE
TRUTH IS HE ALWAYS LOVES ME.
GOD WILL NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER STOP LOVING YOU.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: NOW, I WANT TO READ YOU A TESTIMONY THAT CAME IN
JUST THIS PAST WEEK.
AND I HAD THEM PRINT IT OUT FOR ME BECAUSE IT FITS IN SO WELL
WITH WHAT I'M TEACHING TODAY.
LET ME SAY FIRST THAT WHEN YOU BEGIN TO KNOW THAT GOD LOVES YOU
THAT SETS YOU FREE TO BE ABLE TO BEGIN TO LOVE OTHER PEOPLE.
AND HERE AGAIN I KNOW YOU WEREN'T ALL HERE BUT WHEN I READ
IN 1 PETER OR 2 PETER, I FORGET NOW IF IT WAS FIRST OR SECOND,
THAT LIST OF, YOU KNOW, THINGS THAT WE'RE TO MAKE AN EFFORT TO
DO AND IT'S, "THIS LEADS TO THIS AND THIS LEADS TO THIS AND THIS
LEADS TO THIS AND FINALLY WE END UP WITH CHRISTIAN LOVE."
YOU SEE, OUR GOAL IS TO GET TO THE POINT WHERE WE CAN BE NOT
SELFISH AND SELF-CENTERED, NOT ABSORBED WITH OUR OWN SELF AND
OUR OWN PROBLEMS, BUT WE CAN DEPOSIT OUR SELF WITH GOD,
KNOWING THAT HE LOVES US, KNOWING WE'RE NOT WHERE WE NEED
TO BE, BUT GOD IS WORKING WITH US.
AND THEN WHILE HE'S WORKING WITH US WE CAN OFFER OURSELVES TO HIM
FOR HIM TO WORK THROUGH US TO BE A BLESSING TO OTHER PEOPLE.
AND I FOUND ALL THIS OUT FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT, TOOK ME
40 YEARS TO DO IT, SO YOU'RE GETTING A GOOD CHUNK OF MY LIFE
HERE THIS MORNING.
OKAY, THIS CAME FROM SARAH AND SHE WROTE IN INITIALLY
ON FACEBOOK.
SHE SAID, "I WAS SEXUALLY ASSAULTED AND NOW I'M PREGNANT
AND I'M TRYING TO DECIDED WHETHER TO CARRY THE BABY
OR TO ABORT IT."
THAT WAS IT.
THAT IS WHAT SHE SAID.
NOW, BECAUSE WE HAVE GREAT PEOPLE THAT WORK FOR US THAT
HAVE BEEN TRAINED PROPERLY, AND THAT IS THE PEOPLE AT OUR OFFICE
KNOW NOT TO IGNORE ANY KIND OF REQUEST THAT COMES IN FROM
SOMEBODY THAT'S HURTING.
IT JUST ANNOYS ME WHEN PEOPLE SAY, "I WROTE TO
SEVEN MINISTRIES AND YOURS WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT ANSWERED
ME BACK."
THAT IS NOT RIGHT.
"THE MINISTRY REPLIED BY EMAIL WITH PRAYER AND SCRIPTURES TO
ENCOURAGE ME.
BUT THEN, 2 DAYS LATER THEY FOLLOWED UP WITH ANOTHER EMAIL
LETTING ME KNOW THAT THEY WOULD LIKE TO ACTUALLY CALL ME IF I
WOULD SEND MY PHONE NUMBER."
HER ONE SENTENCE REPLY BEFORE GIVING THE NUMBER WAS, "I AM
STUNNED THAT YOU CARED ENOUGH TO EMAIL ME BACK AND THAT YOU EVEN
WANT TO TALK TO ME."
GOD WORKED THROUGH THAT PHONE CALL IN A MIRACULOUS WAY AND
SARAH GAVE HER LIFE TO CHRIST.
OH, THIS GETS BETTER, THIS GETS BETTER.
THEN, IT SAYS, WE FOLLOWED UP AGAIN BY EMAIL.
SEE, FOLLOW UP.
PEOPLE NEED DISCIPLING, THEY DON'T NEED A LITTLE PAT ON THE
HEAD, "WELL, BLESS YOU."
YOU ARE IN MINISTRY.
IF YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN, YOU ARE IN MINISTRY AND THE WORLD IS
FULL OF PEOPLE THAT JUST NEED A KIND WORD AND SOMEBODY TO ACT
LIKE THEY CARE.
AMEN?
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: AND EVERYBODY CAN DO THAT BUT YOU WON'T DO THAT IF
YOU'RE STILL SICK INSIDE YOURSELF.
I BELIEVE WE ALL GET HURT AND I BELIEVE THAT GOD WANTS TO HEAL
ALL OF US AND THEN THE NEXT STEP IS HE WANTS US TO BE READY TO
HELP ALL OTHER HURTING PEOPLE OUT IN THE WORLD.
EVERY DAY WHEN YOU GO OUT YOUR FRONT DOOR, YOU'VE GOT A
MINISTRY AND A WORLD FULL OF PEOPLE TO MINISTER TO,
EVERY SINGLE DAY.
"GOD WORKED THROUGH THE PHONE CALL IN MIRACULOUS WAYS AND
SARAH GAVE HER LIFE TO CHRIST.
WE FOLLOWED UP AGAIN BY EMAIL," I LOVE THIS, "WE'RE NOW ON OUR
FOURTH COMMUNICATION WITH THIS GIRL TO CELEBRATE HER NEW LIFE
AND WE PROVIDED LINKS TO THE EVERYDAY ANSWERS SECTIONS OF OUR
WEBSITE AND OTHER ONLINE RESOURCES.
SHE RESPONDED NOW BY SAYING, 'I HAD BEEN SUICIDAL THE NIGHT THAT
I FELT COMPELLED TO CLICK ONTO YOUR FACEBOOK PAGE.
I HAD MY DEATH ALL PLANNED OUT, THEN YOU EMAILED ME AND YOU
EMAILED ME AGAIN.
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I FELT LOVED.' "
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: PEOPLE ARE DESPERATE TO FEEL LOVED.
AND IF WE CAN JUST GET OUR MINDS OFF YOURSELF LONG ENOUGH TO
REACH OUT TO SOMEBODY ELSE OUR OWN HEALING WOULD COME A LOT
MORE QUICKLY.
"EVEN THOUGH YOU ARE A COMPLETE STRANGER, I COULD NO LONGER GO
THROUGH WITH MY PLAN FOR SUICIDE.
I WAS STILL CONFUSED AND CERTAIN I WOULD BE ABORTING THE BABY BUT
THEN YOU SENT MORE SCRIPTURES, EMAILED AGAIN AND EVEN CALLED
AGAIN."
I LOVE THE PEOPLE THAT WORK FOR US.
I MEAN, I LOVE THE FACT THAT THEY'RE SINCERE ABOUT HELPING
PEOPLE AND IT'S NOT JUST TO GET A PAYCHECK AND TO PUT IN SOME
HOURS.
SHE SAID, "MY WORLD CHANGED FOREVER."
NOW, LISTEN TO THIS.
"AS I PRAYED ON THE PHONE TO BECOME A CHRISTIAN, I FELT WHAT
I CAN ONLY DESCRIBE AS A BLANKET OF PEACE IN MY ROOM.
I KNOW THAT SOUNDS CRAZY, BUT A HEAVY, FEATHER-LIKE BLANKET
DESCENDED ON ME.
THEN WHEN THE LADY WHO CALLED PRAYED FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT,
A COOL BREEZE SWEPT THROUGH MY ROOM."
NOW, YOU GOTTA KEEP IN MIND, THIS LADY DIDN'T KNOW FROM
NOTHING, SHE COULDN'T BE MAKING THIS UP.
"I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT WAS BUT LITERALLY A BREEZE CAME IN AND
MY HAIR WAS MOVED BY THE BREEZE."
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: SHE SAID, "THE WINDOWS WEREN'T OPEN AND IT'S 95 DEGREES
HERE, YET A BREEZE CAME OVER ME WITH THE BLANKET.
IT WAS AS IF GOD WAS IN THE ROOM.
IS THAT CRAZY, OR WHAT?"
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: COME ON.
MY GOSH, SHE SAID, "BECAUSE I'VE NEVER EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE
THAT BEFORE.
WELL," ALL CAPITALS, "I FEEL LIKE I CAN LIVE NOW AND THAT MY
BABY WILL LIVE.
YOU SHOWERED ME WITH LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE AND HONESTLY SAVED MY
LIFE AND THE BABY'S LIFE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I ASK THAT YOU CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR ME AS I LEARN HOW TO BE
A MAMA."
JOYCE MEYER MINISTRIES HAS SINCE SENT SARAH A BIBLE, WE'RE
PROVIDING HER WITH FREE TICKETS TO COME TO THE WOMEN'S
CONFERENCE IN ST. LOUIS.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: AND, SEE TO BE HONEST, IF YOU'RE PARTNERING WITH OUR
MINISTRY, THIS KIND OF STUFF HAPPENS BECAUSE OF YOUR
FAITHFULNESS.
SHE SAID, "I'M SO EXCITED TO GET MY OWN BIBLE, I'VE NEVER HAD ONE
BEFORE.
I'VE BEEN READING THE LINKS THAT YOU SENT TO ME OVER AND OVER.
I CAN'T GET ENOUGH.
I'M READING THEM TO MY BABY TOO.
I HAD A DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT TODAY AND I SAW MY BABY FOR
THE FIRST TIME.
A VERY HEALTHY BABY DUE DECEMBER 25TH."
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: "I HAD TO JUST SHARE THIS BECAUSE IF IT WASN'T FOR
PEOPLE LIKE YOU I WOULDN'T EVEN BE HERE TODAY."
NOW, OH MY GOSH, THIS IS WHAT GOD WANTS US TO DO.
AND SO, I'M TRYING REALLY HARD TODAY TO GET YOU TO UNDERSTAND
HOW MUCH GOD LOVES YOU.
AND MAYBE YOU'VE BEEN MISTREATED IN LIFE.
MAYBE SOMEBODY'S BEEN ABUSING YOU AND SAYING ALL KINDS OF BAD
THINGS TO YOU.
BUT YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO WHAT GOD SAYS ABOUT YOU AND NOT WHAT
PEOPLE HAVE SAID ABOUT YOU.
YOU ARE PRECIOUS.
YOU ARE VALUED.
YOU ARE LOVED.
AND GOD LOVED YOU SO MUCH HE SENT HIS ONLY SON TO DIE A
TERRIBLE, PAINFUL DEATH JUST FOR YOU AND IF YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN
THE ONLY PERSON ON THE PLANET, HE WOULD HAVE STILL DONE IT JUST
FOR YOU.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: WELL, I'M JUST ABOUT AS HAPPY AS I CAN GET THIS
MORNING.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: MY, MY, MY.
LORD HELP ME, I'VE NOT EVEN GOTTEN TO MY FIRST SCRIPTURE
YET.
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
JOYCE: THEREFORE, IF GOD WHO IS ALL-LOVING DOES NOT ALWAYS
LOVE, ACCEPT AND VALUE ME, HOW CAN I BE EXPECTED TO BELIEVE
THAT I'M VALUABLE AND LOVABLE?
THEREFORE, I DON'T BELIEVE THAT I'M BASICALLY A LOVABLE,
VALUABLE PERSON.
THEREFORE, I'M NOT ABLE TO TRUST OTHER PEOPLE WHO SAY THEY LOVE
ME.
I SUSPECT THEIR MOTIVES OR I FIGURE THEY JUST DON'T KNOW
THE REAL ME YET.
SEE, WHEN JOHN WAS TALKING ON THURSDAY NIGHT, HE SAID EVEN
THOUGH HE WAS MARRIED FOR MANY YEARS, EVERY DAY HE KEPT
EXPECTING HIS WIFE TO FIGURE OUT WHO HE REALLY WAS AND TO LEAVE
HIM.
THE NIGHT THAT DAVE ASKED ME TO MARRY HIM, I KEPT WANTING TO GET
HOME BECAUSE MY DAD WENT OUT AND GOT DRUNK EVERY SATURDAY NIGHT
AND I WANTED TO GET BACK IN THE HOUSE BEFORE HE GOT HOME
AND PRETEND TO BE ASLEEP.
AND DAVE SAID, "I NEED TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT SOMETHING.
I WANT TO TALK TO YOU."
AND I THOUGHT WITH EVERYTHING IN ME, THAT HE WAS GOING TO BREAK
UP WITH ME BECAUSE THAT WAS JUST WHERE MY MIND ALWAYS WENT.
IT ALWAYS WENT TO THE NEGATIVE.
IT ALWAYS WENT TO SOMEBODY NOT WANTING ME OR HERE IT COMES
AGAIN, MORE REJECTION, MORE PAIN, MORE DISAPPOINTMENT.
BUT GOD SURPRISED ME THAT NIGHT.
AND HE SAID, "I LOVE YOU AND I WANT TO MARRY YOU."
AND I THOUGHT...
AND, YOU KNOW, DAVE KNOWS THIS AND HE UNDERSTANDS.
I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT LOVE WAS.
I MEAN, I COULDN'T REALLY SAY I LOVED ANYBODY BECAUSE I DIDN'T
EVEN KNOW WHAT IT WAS.
AND I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS BECAUSE I'D NEVER SEEN ANY OF
IT.
YOU KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE OUT IN THE WORLD THAT DON'T EVEN
KNOW WHAT LOVE FEELS LIKE?
SO I CAN'T ACCEPT LOVE FROM OTHER PEOPLE.
I DEFLECT IT.
I TRY SO HARD TO PROVE THAT I'M RIGHT.
THAT I'M NOT LOVABLE BECAUSE I'M AFRAID THEY WILL EVENTUALLY
REJECT ME, THEREFORE THEY USUALLY DO.
SEE, HERE'S THE THING THAT IS SO CRAZY ABOUT ALL OF THIS.
WHAT YOU BELIEVE IS WHAT YOU PRODUCE.
SO, JUST TO PUT IT PLAINLY, IF YOU BELIEVE YOU'RE A JERK,
YOU'RE GOING TO ACT LIKE ONE.
IF YOU BELIEVE YOU HAVE NO VALUE THEN YOU'RE GOING TO ACT AS IF
YOU HAVE NO VALUE.
SO THE VERY THING THAT YOU WANT FROM OTHER PEOPLE, YOUR OWN
BEHAVIOR KEEPS YOU FROM GETTING BUT IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF THE WAY
YOU FEEL ABOUT YOURSELF INSIDE.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: NOW, MAYBE THERE'S A FEW PEOPLE OUT THERE TODAY THAT
YOU'VE GOT IT ALL TOGETHER IN YOUR LIFE AND YOU DON'T NEED
THIS.
BUT YOU CAN JUST BE PATIENT WITH THE 90% OF US THAT DO NEED IT.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: HOW MANY OF YOU IT WOULD HELP YOU A GREAT DEAL IF
YOU HAD A BETTER RELATIONSHIP WITH YOURSELF?
I'M TELLING YOU WHAT, IT MAKES RELIGIOUS DEVILS SO MAD WHEN YOU
START SAYING YOU LIKE YOURSELF.
UP ON THE EAST COAST, ONE TIME I DID A MEETING YEARS AGO
AND I SAID, "I LIKE MYSELF."
AND THERE WAS AN ARTICLE IN A NEWSPAPER THE NEXT DAY,
"MEYERS SAYS SHE LIKES HERSELF."
[AUDIENCE LAUGHING]
JOYCE: NOW, SEE, IF I WOULD HAVE SAID, "I JUST HATE AND
DESPISE MYSELF, WRETCHED PERSON THAT I AM," THEY WOULD HAVE
THOUGHT THAT WAS HOLY.
SEE, IF YOU'RE NOT CAREFUL, RELIGION WILL TEACH YOU THAT YOU
NEED TO SEE YOURSELF AS SOME FILTHY, ROTTEN SINNER THAT'S NOT
WORTH ANYTHING.
WELL, WE SIN.
THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT.
IT DOESN'T TAKE ME VERY LONG AFTER I GET OUT OF BED TO DO
SOMETHING WRONG.
I CAN LAY IN BED AND MAKE MY PLANS FOR HOLINESS BUT IT ONLY
LASTS TILL I PUT MY FEET ON THE FLOOR.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: BUT EVEN IN THE MIDST OF ALL THAT, I STILL KNOW THAT
I AM THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD, IN CHRIST.
I'M NOTHING IN MYSELF, I'M NOTHING BY MYSELF, APART FROM
HIM I CAN DO NOTHING.
MY LIFE HAS NO MEANING, NO VALUE BUT IN CHRIST.
ME AND HIM AND HIM AND ME.
I CAN STAND AND STAY AND SAY, "GOD LOVES ME, HE LOVES ME
UNCONDITIONALLY.
I LOVE MYSELF AND THAT ENABLES ME TO LOVE YOU."
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: WOO!
I'M HAVING SO MUCH FUN!
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: BE ROOTED AND GROUNDED IN THE LOVE OF GOD.
DON'T LET ANYTHING TAKE THE LOVE OF GOD AWAY FROM YOU.
NEITHER LIFE, NOR DEATH, NOR THINGS IMPENDING, NOR THINGS
COMING, NOR THREATS, NOR ANYTHING ELSE IN ALL THE WORLD
CAN EVER SEPARATE ME FROM THE LOVE OF GOD WHICH IS FOUND IN
CHRIST JESUS.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT, WHEN YOU MAKE THE DUMBEST MISTAKE THAT YOU
COULD POSSIBLY MAKE, IF YOU WANT TO REALLY GIVE THE DEVIL A BLACK
EYE, YOU STAND THERE AND SAY OUT LOUD, "GOD I KNOW THAT I REALLY
MESSED UP AND I AM SORRY BUT I KNOW THAT YOU LOVE ME."
AND IT WILL GIVE YOU POWER IN YOUR LIFE.
DO YOU THINK THAT HATING YOURSELF IS GOING TO HELP YOU
CHANGE?
IT WILL ACTUALLY JUST KEEP YOU STUCK RIGHT WHERE YOU'RE AT.
LET'S LOOK AT JEREMIAH 17:7 AND 8.
"[MOST] BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO BELIEVES IN, TRUSTS IN,
AND RELIES ON THE LORD AND WHOSE HOPE AND CONFIDENCE
THE LORD IS, FOR HE SHALL BE LIKE A TREE PLANTED BY THE
WATERS THAT SPREADS OUT ITS ROOTS BY THE RIVER; AND IT SHALL
NOT SEE AND FEAR WHEN HEAT COMES BUT ITS LEAVES SHALL BE GREEN.
IT SHALL NOT BE ANXIOUS AND FULL OF CARE IN A YEAR OF DROUGHT,
NOR SHALL IT CEASE YIELDING FRUIT."
WOW.
TREES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, A PLANTING OF THE LORD.
THAT'S THE PROMISE.
JESUS SAID HE CAME TO HEAL THE BROKEN-HEARTED.
A PERSON WHO'S BROKEN HEARTED IS BROKEN IN PERSONALITY.
YOU CAN'T, YOUR LIFE IS FRAGMENTED.
YOU CAN'T HAVE GOOD RELATIONSHIPS WITH PEOPLE AND IT
ALL GOES BACK TO THE WOUNDS IN YOUR SOUL.
AND ONLY GOD CAN GET TO THOSE DEEP PLACES IN US AND HEAL US
AND THE BALM OF GILEAD THAT HE USES IS HIS LOVE.
YOU KNOW WHAT WE ALL JUST REALLY WANT TO BE LOVED
UNCONDITIONALLY.
YOU KNOW ONE OF THE THINGS I APPRECIATE SO MUCH ABOUT MY
HUSBAND AND HE TOLD ME THIS JUST RECENTLY, IT BLESSED ME.
I MEAN, YOU KNOW, I STILL GOT A LITTLE FIRE IN ME AND I CAN BE
A LITTLE, WELL, YOU KNOW.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO CALL IT.
JUST ME.
AND, I CAN STILL KIND OF HAVE A QUICK ANSWER, YOU KNOW,
RIGHT BACK.
AND DAVE JUST LAUGHS AT ME, HE THINKS I'M FUNNY.
AND SOMETIMES, YOU KNOW, I'LL SAY, "OH, I KNOW, I'M--" AND
HE'S, LIKE, "YOU KNOW WHAT?
I LOVE YOU JUST THE WAY YOU ARE."
NOW, YOU KNOW, IF I GET REALLY OUT OF LINE, DAVE WILL TELL ME,
"OKAY, KNOCK IT OFF."
BUT, YOU KNOW WHY HE FEELS LIKE THAT?
BECAUSE HE KNOWS ME.
AND HE KNOWS MY HEART.
AND HE KNOWS THAT I WANT TO BE A REALLY GOOD GIRL.
I'M NOT SURE I'LL EVER GET THERE BUT--
AND SEE, GOD KNOWS THAT ABOUT YOU.
YOU THINK THAT GOD DOESN'T APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT YOU
TOOK YOUR SATURDAY AND, FOR SOME OF YOU,
YOU'VE BEEN HERE THURSDAY NIGHT, FRIDAY MORNING, FRIDAY NIGHT,
NOW SATURDAY MORNING, YOU'VE PAID TO STAY IN HOTELS.
YOU MAY HAVE FLOWN HERE, YOU'VE DRIVEN HERE.
YOU'VE SPENT MONEY TO GET HERE, YOU'VE TAKEN YOUR TIME TO GET
HERE AND THEN YOU THINK IF YOU MAKE ONE LITTLE SILLY MISTAKE
THIS AFTERNOON, THAT NOW GOD'S NOT GOING TO LOVE YOU ANYMORE?
NO, HE SEES YOUR HEART AND HE KNOWS THAT YOU'RE ON YOUR WAY TO
BECOMING ALL THAT HE WANTS YOU TO BE.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]
JOYCE: SEE, EVERYBODY SAY, "I'M ON MY WAY."
AUDIENCE: I'M ON MY WAY.
JOYCE: I LOVE JEREMIAH 17:8 BECAUSE I WANNA BE THAT KINDA
PERSON THAT EVEN WHEN THINGS ARE NOT GOIN' WELL IN MY LIFE, WHEN
THE HEAT COMES, IN A YEAR OF DROUGHT, I CAN STILL KEEP
BEARING GOOD FRUIT.
JOYCE: WELL, IF YOU BELIEVE THAT GOD LOVES YOU
UNCONDITIONALLY, THEN YOU CAN BEGIN TO LOVE YOURSELF IN
A BALANCED AND A HEALTHY WAY.
AND IF YOU LEARN TO LOVE YOURSELF, YOU'RE GONNA BE ABLE
TO LOVE OTHERS, AND, BOY, ARE YOU GONNA START TO REALLY
ENJOY YOUR LIFE.
