Welcome to 15 Minutes in the Word with New York Times best-selling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program, Joyce will be teaching from her series ways to increase your happiness.

We all want to know how we can be happier in life, but unfortunately we also have an enemy who

tries to steal our happiness and joy any way possible, like reminding us of our past hurts or current difficulties.

But there's hope.

Jesus came so we can enjoy a full life in Him.

In today's teaching, Joyce helps us discover how we can experience God's peace

and be filled with his joy no matter what's happening around us.

Now here's Joyce with the series Ways to Increase Your Happiness.

Don't always be against yourself and finding something wrong with yourself.

The Bible says that a wife should enjoy her husband.

And every time I say that in a meeting where I've got a crowd of people,

the women all grown.

Well, you know what?

You can enjoy the person you're married to if you will stop looking at everything that's

wrong with them and look at the things that are right with them.

I made a list one time of everything that I thought was wrong with Dave and everything I thought was right.

And I was really surprised when I got finished the things that I thought were right that I thought was wrong with Dave and everything I thought was right. And I was really surprised when I got finished,

the things that I thought were right

that I really enjoyed about him was much, much longer

than the three or four things that I thought were a problem.

We focus on the right thing, and we can increase our happiness.
