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

We have to be very careful and wise how we think about people.

How we judge people. My goodness we are so bad about judging things that we don't know anything at all about.

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

Today we're in the second chapter of Philippians and Paul starts out in the first four

verses and he says so if there is any encouragement in Christ any in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit,

any affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the same mind having the same love being in full accord and of one mind.

So what do we get out of that? Well if we just read over it probably not too much but

Paul is basically saying here so if you want to encourage me if you want to

bring some comfort to me if you want to bring some comfort to me, if you want to participate in the spiritual work that I'm doing,

if you have any real affection for me or any sympathy for me, the one thing you can do for me that will make me really, really

happy and complete my joy is if you will just get along.

So we're going to talk about a couple of really important things that.

We're going to talk about how to get along, unity, and how important it is to get the strife out of our lives.

Now, when I said the word strife, some of you don't even know what that word means.

I had somebody ask me recently what is

strife? Well strife is bickering, arguing, heated disagreement, but it's something

else that is very dangerous

it's an angry undercurrent.

And you know what an angry undercurrent is?

It's when everybody is smiling at each other.

Praise the Lord, brother, glad you're here, thank you Jesus. But you're gossiping about them behind their back or you know you really don't like them.
