Joyce Meyer: Promises for Your Everyday Life - a Daily DevotionalSample

Know the Word for Yourself If you have been wondering why it always seems that you are under something, facing one problem or another, and don't have victory in your life, perhaps you need to spend more time abiding in the Word. Many believers go to church every week to listen to someone else preach the Word to them, but they never know the Word for themselves. If you want to live in victory, you must give God's Word a place of priority in your everyday life. Practically speaking, this could mean that you confess the Word while you get ready in the morning. Maybe you could listen to teaching or worship music on the way to work. You may want to use your lunch hour to read the Word or walk outside and pray. These are just a few ideas for integrating God's Word into your life. Just make sure you pursue His truth on a regular, ongoing basis. Giving His Word a place of top priority will change your life. Prayer Starter: Lord, I want to fully integrate Your Word into my life. I don't just want to hear someone tell me the Word once a week, I want to know it for myself. Lead me and give me ideas to pursue Your Word consistently.
