Seven
Things That Steal Your Joy (Review
2)
Overcoming
the Obstacles to Your Happiness
By Joyce Meyer
Joyce
Meyer, Bible teacher and author of over fifty inspirational books,
tackles the eternal question, “Why aren’t I happy, God?”
Her knowledge of the Bible and her insight into the human heart,
combine to give clear, concise, and important answers that can change
your life.
The “Joy
Stealers” are presented and analyzed in chapters titled, “Works
of the Flesh,” “Be Led of the Spirit,” “Religious
Legalism,” “Be Free in Christ,” “Complicating
Simple Issues,” “Be Uncomplicated,” “Excessive
Reasoning,” “Be Confident in God,” “Ungodly
Anger,” “Be Quick to Forgive,” “Jealousy
and Anger,” “Be Outrageously Blessed,” “Habitual
Discontentment,” “Be Content,” and “You
Can Live a Life of Joy.” Each chapter outlines the choice
we make every day – to live in victory of defeat. Meyer teaches
straight from the Bible, but also gives examples that drive her
message home. And she isn’t afraid to tell on herself. Her
refreshing candor puts the reader at ease. Meyer isn’t judgmental,
but she certainly “tells it like it is.”
Do you always
try to figure out the answers to your problems yourself, or have
you learned how to “let go and let God?” Do you wake
up in the morning ready to receive the blessings God has for you,
or do you drag yourself out of bed believing that you will be met
with more stress than you can handle? Is your life lived “on
the level” or are you a Christian yo-yo, up and down so many
times a day that you make yourself dizzy?
Joyce
Meyer is one of the greatest Bible teachers of all time. She will
bridge the gap between everyday life and the divine principles of
God’s Word if you will open your heart and mind. Seven
Things that Steal Your Joy isn’t just a blessing, it’s
a necessity if you want to live a joy-filled life. Whatever you
do, don’t miss out!
