Welcome to enjoying everyday life with New York Times bestselling author Joyce

Meyer. On today's program Joyce will be teaching from her series Spiritual

Maturity. We all desire to grow closer to God and experience his loving change in

our lives, but sometimes it can feel like we're stuck in the same place, like

we're not maturing in our faith. Let's move past feeling stuck and not growing and

let's press into God's Word. Listen as Joyce shares key principles from his

Word that will guide us in our walk with the Lord so we can live out his

amazing plan for our lives. Now here's Joyce with today's teaching. How many of

you are going through some things right now? We have stuff too. I had in the last

three years I've had both of my hips replaced. Kind of nice now you can get

replacement parts. That's cool so you know you go through a healing process and

blah blah blah blah. Well I've been having a little issue with this one and so

they don't think it my hip. They think now it could be something with my back. I've

been having trouble with sciatic nerve. This morning getting ready to come over

here. I had just pain going down the back of my leg. Well you know my life's

not perfect either, but I have to apply the same principles to my life that I

encourage you to apply to yours. You know you don't get a pass from

problems just because you're preaching the Word. Matter of fact you get attacked

more than if you weren't doing anything. But you know what we do have authority

over the enemy and although he comes against this one way he'll flee before

a seven days. I had an interesting thing last week and I'm not trying to make

more of this than what it is. It's just I like to make a joke out of things
