This program is made possible by the partners of Joyce Meyer Ministries.

If you want to have the high life,

you have to give up the low life.

And you can't just wait for God to come and take away that low life from you.

I'm Joyce Meyer. I've seen God's power transform my own life and he will do it for you.

Luke 923 and he said to all of them to all of them, to all of them.

So if you're thinking,

well, I was kind of hoping she'd preach on something else today.

No, this message for all of us.

If any person wills to come to me,

let him deny himself, disown himself, forget, lose sight of himself in all of his own interest.

Let him refuse and give up himself.

I don't sound too exciting, does it?

Now first of all let me clarify that there's always

balance. God always brings balance. This doesn't mean that you shouldn't take care

of yourself. It doesn't mean that you shouldn't take care of yourself.

It doesn't mean that you should never do anything for yourself or never buy yourself anything.

Or that always, always in every situation, you have to always let everybody else have what they want while you never have anything

that you want.

It's a general principle of exactly what I'm talking about here today.

Just don't get up every day trying to make yourself happy.

Get yourself off your mind.
