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

As Christians, we need to have consistent joy,

not just so we can have a happy feeling, but because of our

witness to the world.

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

I'm doing a teaching called the disappointment of unrealistic expectations.

And, you know, I teach people all the time to expect big things.

I don't think we should go around expecting trouble or

expecting every day to have some kind of problem.

But we do live in a real world with real issues and a lot of evil and a big devil and lots of demons that hate Christians.

And the fact is, thank God that we can pray and believe in dream dreams and have visions and

God does so many amazing, I mean really and truly people, God does so many amazing things in our lives.

I mean really just phenomenally amazing.

Let prayer be like breathing.

Just open that door to give God an opportunity to work in your life.

And whatever you do, let's don't get so used to God.

Come on Christians. Let's just don't get so used to God that we forget how exciting it is to know him. But even in the midst of that

and all the blessings we have, there are a lot of unhappy people in the world and a lot of them are Christians.

And if we could all just be honest for a minute, lots and lots of Christians are discontent.

They're not contempt. It's always another thing we're looking for. There's something wrong with this church. I'll find another

church, then I'll be happy. Something wrong with this job, I get another job, and then I'll be happy. Something wrong with this job I'll get another job and then I'll be happy.

You know, when are we really going to just make our mind up to be happy right now?
