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

And the whole goal that we should have is, yes, to love Jesus to receive Him, but also to become like him to be Christ-like and to get out in the

world and let people know this is what Jesus is like. I do what I do because I've seen God's power transform my own life and he will do it for

you. The key to everything is found in God's word.

I'm Joyce Meyer and I believe that God can heal you everywhere you hurt.

You know faithfulness is on the endangered character list. I don't know if you realize it or not but we're in serious trouble in our society today

because

The things that we should be displaying the most seem to be disappearing more and

more and more all the time.

We're just on a steady decline. And I can tell you if anybody is going to model good

character to the world it's going to have to be the believers because you're not the only place we can even hope to be taught that anymore is from the

word of God and it's something we need to do a lot of teaching on in our churches. I remember when God first

started putting this ministry on my heart and it's very interesting to me I

probably didn't realize at the time what an important thing

God was putting in my heart. But this is what I felt like God spoke in my heart.

There's three things I'm going to ask you to do and if you do them your ministry will be blessed.

Remember this has been like 42 years ago and here's what he said to me. Whatever you do do it with excellence.

Be a person of integrity

And keep the strife out of your life and out of your ministry.

Those three things. And just to quickly tell you what that means to me,

excellence is not perfection. It just simply means that whatever you have to work with you do the

best you can with it in other words you might have an old automobile and you'd love to have a new one.
