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, but 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.

You know I was divorced.

I married the first guy that came along

because I thought nobody would ever want me.

And he was a good-looking con man. that's about all they ever did. And it was so painful and so hurtful. But you know what?

I got a better man.

And I had this one, long time.

I know that many of you are hurting and I don't want my little happy clappy message to sound like it's not for you. I'm telling you this is real. Hope is

powerful. Hope is real. Hope will put you over, but you got to make your mind up and not

change it. I don't know. I mean it you know the devil attacks I

mean when we when we try to do anything that's good you're trying to make your mind up that you're going to go home

and you're going to have a good attitude and I can almost tell you and I hate to do it

that when you go home the devil's going to come against you he's going to

nah heh ah ah ah ah ah ah ah one are you going to come against you. He's going to, eh, he's going to, when are you going to give it up?

This is my new home.

You know, last week we had all kinds of stuff happening.

And you know, day one I said, well, it's Women's Conference Week.
