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, filled with hope.

Hope is the confident expectation that something good is going to happen to us and through us.

But it's very important we have our hope set in the right place.

We can place hope in many things, only hope in our faithful heavenly father and his promises to us and his word will bring about the blessings he has for us

Now here's Joyce with today's teaching.

Oh, one of my most yummy scriptures

is Zakariah 912.

Let's put it up.

Return to the stronghold of security and prosperity you prisoners will hope

Uh oh

Even today do I declare that I will restore double,

double your former prosperity to you?

Now we're going over the edge.

Okay, now look. God promises us that if we will become prisoners of hope.

You know what that means? I'm walked up in hope. I can't get away from it. I can't get out of it.

Hope. Hope. Hope, hope, hope, hope, hope, hope, hope, hope, hope, hope,

everywhere I look, hope, hope, When you do that, the devil does not know what to do to you.

Now listen, the devil will attack us. He'll come against us. He'll come with negative thoughts

and trying to tell us that... But, but, but, but, but,

whoo, no, no, no, no. Nana nana nana nah nah nah

nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
