Hi, this is Joyce Meyer's Talk It Out podcast, where Joyce teaches the word of God in a practical no-nonsense way,

and my friends and I talk through the real stuff of living it and hold nothing back. I'm Ginger Stockey with

Jay Williams and Aaron Clueley, three friends who are all in very different stages of life,

and know the importance of having honest loving women around you.

When we need a little extra help, we call up Miss Joyce and ask her.

Sometimes you just need to talk about life with your girlfriends, so consider yourself one of us now and let's talk it out.

This is a special episode and I am excited about it because of what I believe it can do in all of our lives. We've been studying the Bible here together for quite a

while now and we've had some amazing moments of awakening and frankly just awe of what God can do. Today's episode is full of hope

and examples that you won't be defeated by the struggle you're dealing with today.

What may feel like your greatest challenge is something God will use for your good.

We are sharing a few of our big moments, those revelations, key times at the talk-it-out table that gave us greater understanding about our relationships with God, each other,

and how to deal with life's circumstances.

And when you put them all together,

it creates an amazing new journey of hope.

So first up is a great moment with Joyce exploring how to

deal with pain with the huge help of the word of God. I think self-talk is so, so important.

And you need to spend time talking to yourself.

And if you're where you can, you can talk out loud or you can mutter it or murmur it and

every woman knows how to murmur and mutter. So there should be no problem with this. And it's back to what I've taught for many years about

confessing the word of God out loud I can keep saying I'm impatient I've lost my joy I don't have any peace you know I'm so full of pride

or we can start agreeing with God you know in Amos it says how can two walk together unless they be agreed and we can't

walk with God if we're gonna be in agreement with everything that the enemy tells
