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 Bible study on the book of Galatians.

We all desire God's love and to be right with Him.

While we may try to earn that love or achieve perfection, the truth is there's nothing we can do to achieve it.

But there is one answer God has given us, His grace.

God wants us to experience his freedom in every area of life.

And on today's program, Joyce will show us through the Book of Galatians how we can exchange

our trying for trusting and rely on His grace to become everything he has created us to be.

Now here's Joyce with today's teaching.

for two weeks.

If I said it, it'd take about three days and I'd get fed up with them being in the house

all day.

It's fine for a man to ground his kids for two weeks and go off to work every day and leave

you locked in the house with them.

Amen? And, you know, I would just, I'd feel sorry for him. Well, I think you've learned

your lessons. I'll let you go out. Well, you know what? They loved me, but they had reverential

fear of Dave.

How many of you know what I'm, what I mean?

And so, when God says something, he means what he says.

Are you with me?

He means what he says.
