We don't always help people by doing everything for them. That type of behavior can actually contribute to their problems because it helps then never take responsibility on their own.
Joyce MeyerWhen we pray, we open the door for God to come into our problems and situations and work on them.
Joyce MeyerIf you want to give the devil a nervous breakdown, just get up every day and see how much good you can do.
Joyce MeyerWhen an injustice happens, we want to be vindicated. People feel that if they forgive the person who hurt them, then they will continue to take advantage of them or not take responsibility for what they did wrong. If we're honest, we'll admit that we usually want the person who hurt us to pay for what they did. We can't get past this until we get the revelation that only God can pay us back. He is our Vindicator - He will heal and restore us if we will trust Him and forgive our enemies as He has told us to do.
