Welcome to Enjoying Everyday Life with New York Times best-selling author Joyce

Meyer. On today's program Joyce will be teaching from her series Keeping God

First. There is much in life that competes for our attention but there is one

who wants to be first before anything else and when we make Jesus the

center everything gets better. Be encouraged today as Joyce shares how we can

pursue God first and grow a deep satisfying relationship with him. Before she

begins we want to say how grateful we are for your support throughout 2022.

It's made all the difference in sharing the love of Christ and changing lives.

One need at a time. God is truly doing amazing things through you. Today will

you help make an even bigger impact in 2023 and give a special gift before the

end of the year. Together with God's help we will continue sharing Christ's love,

hope and healing in real tangible ways. If you'd like to give please visit

just let God be God don't ever put yourself somewhere because if you put

yourself somewhere you will have the job of keeping yourself there. If God puts

me he keeps me. If God orders it he pays for it. I don't have to live under

pressure all the time. If I wait on God but if I go my own way then I get to

take care of myself along with it. Some people are so antsy to get married.

Gotta get married. Gotta get married. Oh I know it's Sam and Chi. Just anything to walk

down the aisle and they marry the wrong person don't listen to God don't pay any

attention to peace and then spend the rest of their life being sorry. Wait on God.

Wait on a divine connection. Follow peace. Not the flesh. Stay where God wants you
