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

God loves us. We receive that love, which equates to loving yourself in a balanced way.

Yes, I said you should love yourself in a balanced way.

I'm Joyce Meyer and I believe that God can heal you everywhere you hurt.

If at first you don't succeed, you're normal. Amen.

Everybody is going to go out of here feeling better about yourself tonight

than you did when you came in.

How many of you walked in here tonight feeling guilty about something?

Okay, so that's better than 50% of the people and probably some of you too tired to put your hand up so you just didn't. You know something I want you to remember

this we're not built for guilt. That God has not designed us or put us together in such a way where we can function properly

with guilt.

And guilt can have some very adverse reactions even on your health.

They've actually proven that when people feel guilty

that they produce hormones that lead to disease.

I remember being in a mental institution one time going there to minister with a group of people and I still

remember there were a lot of people walking around saying it was all my fault it was all my fault it was all my fault you know you're

forgiven before you ever even sin.

Because Jesus already paid for all of our flaws and weaknesses.

And all you need to do is repent, want to turn around and go in the right

direction, and then just receive what God has already provided. I think sometimes we spend a lot of time asking God for things,

but we don't spend any time receiving. I'm going to suggest to you tonight that at least three times a day you say out loud God loves me and

then stop and just kind of swallow those words.
