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

I'm Joyce Meyer. I've seen God's power transform my own life and he will do it for you.

When God starts changing you,

it always means that you're going to have to let go of something and take hold of something.

You getting this? You're going to have to let go of something and it may be something you want to keep.

And maybe God's going to want you to stay someplace that you want to leave.

Or leave someplace that you want to stay.

I don't know. Maybe you don't go to church here, you're going to a dead church somewhere.

You're not learning anything, but your friends all go there so you don't you don't want to leave and make mama mad and grandma mad if you leave so

You just stay there and stay spiritually stupid all your life.

You know?

I got a book here that I'm

I got a book here that I'm reading on Satan.

I decided I'm gonna write a book on the devil. The devil is real.

is real.

And there are so many good things in this book,

but one of the things he says is,

the devil gets to church before the preacher or before any of the people in the pew.

And if you want to get rid of him, all you got to do is do nothing but preach

legalism and dead orthodoxy from the pulpit and he'll leave and go to a church somewhere where they're really trying to help people.

So maybe, you know, I don't know, maybe God's dealing with you, you know, you ain't learning anything here.

You need to go to one of those wild crazy churches, you know, where they actually worship.
