Welcome to 15 Minutes in the Word with New York Times bestselling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program, Joyce will be teaching from her series enjoying successful relationships.

God wants to bless us, but we must get along.

Because where there is unity, there is blessing and anointing.

So it's our job to learn how to set aside our own agenda

and serve one another through love. Now, here's Joyce with today's teaching.

You know what? I'm very serious about what I'm saying. So many marriages today are falling

apart because people get married with this thought.

What are you going to do to make me happy?

And they don't realize they've got it backwards.

Any relationship you get into, any relationship you get into,

the first thing you should think is how can I make your life better?

How can I help you? How can I edify you? How can I build you up?

And there's something in us that screams, what about me? Can't you hear that cry coming out of the depths of your soul sometimes?

Who's going to do something for me you know the

thing is is if we serve other people in whatever way we can little ways big ways but lots of little ways

i mean a lot of this really that i'm talking about tonight is little stuff that most people would

never notice but you know when God whispers in your heart

and asks you to do it. You know that. You know, one of the things that I've not had a lot of

in the last 35 years is time. And because I work so hard. Now, I've got my life much better

arranged now and I've cut some things out and I'm really

just giving myself to the center core of what I believe my call is.
