Welcome to 15 Minutes in the Word with New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program, Joyce will be teaching from her series, Never Give Up.

Did you know the only way we can lose in life is if we quit?

The hard part is learning to keep going and trusting God, even when we're in the midst of difficulties.

When we're determined to never give up, there is no limit to what God can do in our lives.

Now, here's Joyce with today's teaching.

Let me tell you something.

Before you get promoted, you're going to have to pass some tests.

Amen?

And so the devil lied to him and said different things to him.

On four different occasions, the Bible says the devil said to Jesus.

And Jesus said to the devil, it is written, and he would quote him a scripture.

You're learning the word of God so you can not only just believe the word of God, but so you can use the word of God when the devil's coming against you.

Let him who has my word speak my word faithfully, the Bible says.

Ask yourself, how much time do you actually spend speaking the word of God out loud out of your own mouth?

Now, there are some of you who do, but I would venture to say that more people in here do not

than those who do.

And many times you just sit around by yourself and the devil literally just fills you full

of nonsense and junk that are totally against the Word of God.

And you have a weapon that you can use, but nobody can make you use it.

You have to do it.

You have to open your mouth and say, devil, I don't want to hear your lives.
