Welcome to 15 Minutes in the Word with New York Times best-selling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program, Joyce will be teaching from her series, Learn to be led by the Holy Spirit.

Trying to run our own lives can be stressful, especially if we are motivated by fear, pride, or past hurt.

For most of us, giving up control is a challenge.

But there is one who is ready to help us, someone we can trust, and who always has the best intentions for us.

And it's as simple as asking him to lead.

The Holy Spirit wants to be invited into every detail of our lives, and in today's teaching series,

Joyce will share what being led by the

spirit means and how we can recognize his voice in everyday life. Now, here's Joyce with today's

series, learning to be led by the Holy Spirit. Well, one of the reasons why we don't experience more

of this presence and power in our lives is not necessarily even because we don't

have it or it's not available to us, but it's because we don't know how to, we don't know how to

have it released in our life. We don't know how to protect it. We don't know how to value it.

And so we're doing things all the time that are what the Bible calls grieving and quenching

or hindering the Holy Spirit.

So what I want to teach you this weekend is how to value this gift that God has given you.

Because if you're born again, you have the Holy Spirit.

But my question to you is how much of you does the Holy Spirit have?

Do you just have enough to barely get by?

Or are you filled with the Holy Spirit?

You need to start asking God, fill me with the Holy Spirit.

Fill me, fill me, fill me.
