| 0:05.7 | We struggle so hard in our lives trying to do things that only God can do. |
| 0:11.2 | What he wants us to do is do what he tells us to do and stop doing things that he hasn't told us to do. |
| 0:20.5 | I'm Joyce Meyer, and I believe that God can heal you everywhere you hurt. |
| 0:31.0 | Everybody loves that message. |
| 0:33.3 | The battle belongs to the Lord. |
| 0:35.7 | But I do want to mention right up front that just because the battle belongs to the Lord, |
| 0:39.8 | that doesn't mean that you just get to sit down and do nothing while God does absolutely everything. |
| 0:49.2 | So you're going to learn some things as we go through this in Second Chronicles. |
| 0:53.0 | I've studied this a lot. I've taught on it a number of times. We're going through this in Second Chronicles. I've studied this a lot. I've taught on it a |
