Welcome to Enjoying Everyday Life with New York Times best-selling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program, Joyce will be teaching from her series,

Winning Life's Battles.

Our fight is not against people or circumstances. It's actually against the devil who is real.

But we will overcome if we choose to do things God's way. Love always wins. We overcome evil with good. Now here's

Joyce with today's teaching. Let's look at James 5, 16, 17, and 18.

Confess to one another, therefore, your faults, your lips,

your false steps, your offenses, your sins, and pray.

What's the thing about the confession first?

You can't, you're not going to pray as a righteous man

if you go with a guilty conscience.

So if there's anything bothering you,

anything between you and God, talk to God about it.

If it helps you, talk to somebody else about it.

Receive the forgiveness that was already provided for you 2,000 years ago on the cross and

then act like the person you are.

Don't drag around your sack of condemnation and guilt everywhere

that you go and let it weigh you down. So first of all get rid of that and then

pray for one another that you might be healed and restored to a spiritual tone of mind and heart.

The earnest, heartfelt continued prayer of a righteous man.

Everybody say that's me.

Now say it like you mean it that's me.
