Joyce guides readers to making the most important decision they will ever make.
Beginning with the decision to accept Christ, Joyce explains the life-changing impact that comes from knowing God in the most personal way possible. She walks readers through what makes everyone unique creations as a tri-part being--spirit, soul, and body--and how God relates to them in all three areas. Joyce demonstrates the importance of each part aligning to serve God fully and helps readers avoid pitfalls that keep them from being their best.
Joyce breaks the book into sections covering each of the parts that make up human beings and explains in great detail the various challenges faced in becoming healthy in those areas and how to anticipate and overcome those obstacles. With brief chapters that each cover a clear and concise thought this book is very reader friendly and accessible.
Joyce's unique style shines through and delivers her core message of the importance of an intimate relationship with God and the many-fold ways that will change lives.
Many want a simple life but find it difficult to actually live that way. They fight a constant battle to balance work, family, friends, and other demands on schedules stretched too thin. Joyce Meyer breaks it down to the basic principle of exercising faith rather than doubt, and confidence rather than people pleasing. Joyce gives ideas that are practical and easy to implement for achieving happiness. She recommends that readers choose their battles, trust God to change themselves and others, let go of what lies behind, and live with margin. These and other insights offer freedom from the need to do, fix, or manage everything—freedom to realize that, through God, a simple life is within reach.
“God speaks to us in many ways; they include but are not limited to His Word, nature, people, circumstances, peace, wisdom, supernatural intervention, dreams, visions, and what we call the inner witness—a ‘knowing’ deep inside. “Learning to hear from God and be led by the Holy Spirit is very exciting. God wants to speak to us about the plan He has for our lives. His plan is a good plan, but we are in danger of missing it if we don’t learn how to listen to and obey God’s voice.” God finds ways to reach out to us every day, offering a lifetime partnership filled with guidance on everything from major life issues to small, ordinary problems. The question is, Are you listening?
In HOW TO HEAR FROM GOD, Joyce helps you:
Listen for God’s voice
Arm yourself against negative influences
Understand why you must follow His guidance
Know that simply asking God will open the doors of communication.
The reward is a life filled with meaning, Christ-awareness, and the knowledge that God’s willingness to speak to you has no limits. In the end, the choice is simple. If you listen, you will hear.
