Joyce Meyer, one of the world’s leading practical Bible teachers and New York Times best-selling author, shares encouragement and advice to help us enjoy our daily lives.
With a heart to share Christ and love people, Joyce’s messages help people in all walks of life to grow in their faith, learn to study the Bible, find healing from the wounds of life, get answers to life’s questions and encounter the love of God in a powerful way.
My husband struggled with GAD, Dysthymia and OCD for 2 decades, not wanting to go on meds because he was told all the things from our church teachings - pray more, Word more, you must've sinned, your faith is weak. It wreaked havoc on his self image and our marriage and family. He went to a Christian psychologist and got his diagnoses, went on meds in 2011 but didn't get full healing until mid 2024. He's a new man. I'm glad I stayed.
That's really amazing ❤ your story can probably help save relationships and marriages who go through similar circumstances ❤🙏🏼
My son has been assessed and has OCD, especially ocd/scrupulosity. I insist he takes his tablet everyday, he resists. It's a battle but without it he is insane and terrifying to live with. I know he will receive his healing and will learn to love God again.
@LydiaTheBusinessWomanyes. Stay in faith.
@@j3nnahr0s3thank you! That is our prayer!
I can't find a good Christian counselor. I have looked.
My previous pastor said either God will heal you or he will be with you in the process. This one sentence has made a massive difference to this subject 🙌🏻🕊️🙏🏻
Like the song says, "sometimes He calms the storm and sometimes He calms his child"
Thank you you lovely people. I remember, after I spoke about my story, when I was preaching in Church, I came home and felt like heaven applauded me, I guess it was because I was honest? It also really blessed people. Vulnerability is the Jesus model, but we have to be careful who when and where we share with.
Ginger looks so good . Her outfit is very cute on her.
Love her!
Joyce i want to thank you for being so honest about your life, my mother passed when I was 19 ,and you have help me so much in my walk with the Lord,im 41 now, and you are still being such a blessing to me,thank you for teaching me how to walk as a woman,as a daughter in Christ , God bless X🙂
Thank you so much for reaching out and sharing this with us! We're grateful to hear how Joyce's ministry has been a blessing to you over the years. For more great teachings and resources from Joyce, check out joycemeyer.org/EELShow. God bless! -Team JMM
Hello, Like most people I had a lousy childhood full of violence and fear. I am grieving a dog that recently passed on. I am praying the word and what the Lord keeps telling me the negative fearful thoughts the enemy try's to put on will not hurt me. I know I am working through the negativity from childhood . God is good!
We're so sorry to hear what you have been through. We know the battle in our mind can at times be so difficult. You are in a battle-you are not alone-for all of God’s people fight this same fight (Ephesians 6:12). Make up your mind not to give up! According to Colossians 3:2, set your mind on things above and keep it set. We encourage you to check out bit.ly/2eVWHb0 and bit.ly/2gMtVxI. God bless you! -Team JMM
It has been tough, I can see that and your dogs passing is so very sad too. I'm so sorry. I do pray you will feel the warmth and comfort of Jesus. God bless
@@joycemeyer Hello, thank you for your reply. I opened the link to the scripture for sound mind. It has helped me. God bless
@LydiaTheBusinessWoman Hello, thank you for your caring thoughts. God Bless you
Trauma can go from one generation to another...What is being said is true!! God, who is omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent has power to touch that traumatic moment and memory!
21:05 EXACTLY!! I tell younger women I mentor that "Just because you think something doesn't necessarily make it TRUE"! So many of us think that if we think something or "feel" something, that it must be true.
Thank you for this ❤
It was so hard when i was abused by my ex boyfriend, i had a hard time sharing my story. Thank you Joyce Meyer you touch my life.
I had a similar situation could you share more about your experience? I pray and hope things are getting better for you.
I went from second grade to forty years old without being treated for a dopamine chemical imbalance in my brain. I used food and drugs and avoidance to self medicate. I wish someone had helped me.
How is this diagnosed?
I experienced alot of abuse as a child and in a marriage. In January of 2022, I experienced an n-stemi heart attack from a broken heart concerning my son, and dtr in law using their children as pawns to control. My son became someone I no longer knew. Then, in August of 2023, I had breast cancer surgery. I have found a wonderful Christian counselor who is helping me work through the emotional pain I have experienced. Thank you, Joyce for your ministry which has and is a blessing to me and has encouraged my walk with my Lord!
I want to be at that conference in April! Thank you Dr. Cloud!
So sad, so much trauma. I understand, I've suffered this year with my son having suffered with mental illness, and my heart literally hurts.
@LydiaTheBusinessWoman Thank you. I just lifted a prayer up to our Savior for you and your son♡
@@sherieshaffer9803 thank you 🤲
So glad to see Dr Henry Cloud on the show talking about this subject
Dear Friends, I have been fortunate enough to have had Dr. Cloud's book come into my life path. Currently reading Why I Believe. I mean it when I say it has already made such a positive impact on me where many others have failed. Dr. Cloud's personal testimony has been so authentically inspiring for me. I am grateful for the timing of this program. Thank you Joyce Meyer Ministries for introducing this blessed man to now, so many others!
Stay the course, Dear Friends, and keep your focus on Jesus. You will come out of this. ❤
Holy Spirit, Help me in the name of Jesus Amen 🙏🏾
When I began to listening to Joyce way back in the mid to late 1990's, she talked about "the medicine cabinet" the fruit of the Holy Spirit and my heart wanted to experience God's love, because I didn't know how to trust or to love myself or others as God designed or wanted for humanbeings❤ Joyce's testimony with the Bible, the power of God's word and faithfulness very much has brought me out of areas of darkness and into the promised land...Bless you Joyce Meyer and this conversation! This message is right on!!
THANK YOU FOR SPEAKING ABOUT MENTAL HEALTH!🙏🏽💯💖✝️
Blessings to you! We also encourage you to check out these resources from Joyce at bit.ly/2eVWHb0 and bit.ly/2gMtVxI. God bless you! -Team JMM
Joyce is open and transparent. She gives hope to people. I love Joyce and the Psychologist is very interesting.
Yes- He is real - this is what I wanted to tell everybody years and years after I met Him for real!
Thank for addressing trauma and things being stored in the body. Im always told to renew my mind and asked what I'm thinking, read your scriptures on anxiety. No one understands me when I say it's in my body. GAD, dysthymia, CPTSD and menopause. I have been doing EMDR with my therapist for 3 1/2 years now and it has really helped.
We're glad this blessed you! We will be lifting you up in our prayers! Know that the Lord is with you now and always. God bless you! -Team JMM
YES I love Henry Cloud, as a mental health therapist I am so glad yall are having this conversation.
God Heals All
I love you Momma Joyce and you have helped me so much in the area of abuse especially and sharing . Thank you so much! Thank you, Heavenly Father for this voice and may there be many more like her for the next generations.
We're grateful to hear how Joyce's ministry has been a blessing to you! We will keep you lifted up in our prayers. God bless you! -Team JMM
Wow pastor Meyer, you were listening and taking care of others, while almost nobody was listening to you. But guest what, God healed you along the way. You really amazed me, machala. You are a walking miracle to me. God bless you for choosing this path in Jesus name. Thank you for fighting back.
Thank you so much for this video. I finally feel justified, heard and for the first time in my life, not like a bad person/failure.
I also have to say that when Dr Cloud said that surgeons had “read a few books” I burst out laughing when Ginger said “Hopefully more than a few!” 🤣🤣
All of you have done more for me in 50mins than a lifetime of trying and being told I’m not trusting God enough. Thank you just isn’t enough 🤍🤍🤍
I have struggled with MDD and GAD on and off for 20 years. It is so hard on my family, friends, and myself. Mental Health is definitely a part of our health (just like a broken bone, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, etc.) We have to learn how to heal and take care of ourselves. I’ve watched this twice now and I appreciate it so very much!!
Thanks for the video! I’m struggling. Been struggling for quite awhile! Quadruple smackdown of life but still moving …crawling forward.
What a worthwhile topic. Thank you!
But the devil will not win! I’m stronger because Jesus is my father
Yes as Jesus said: "the One who is in you (Jesus) is stronger than the one who is in the world (satan)".
Yes!
The Lord is my shepherd....boy that helps to get thru some things ahead of us. Thanks.
Recently, I opened up to family, because I was hoping this would help place puzzle pieces together. I also knew there was freedom in opening up.
Above all there is that scripture, James 5 says if we open up, bring issues to light there is freedom, and healing!
I heard Russ Taffs story, and Joyce's story, and then all kinds of real human stories. Yes all these are tied together. I was in and out of psyc. units for a yr. and a half back in 89- 91.
Trauma in the mind, oh yes, and I began to find all this out, when I read I Still Believe. Yes, the process for me really came into focus when Covid took place.
Mom had passed away, covid was there. I read Russ' story, once.
Holy Spirit, said read that book again, as there is healing there. So then as reading his story, here I am crying, like crazy at times. Because in a sense I could see these pieces and things began to make sense.
Oh my yes, there has been healing, and I am so greatful for GOD,JESUS and HOLY SPIRIT!!
As the song says, I will sing of the Goodness of GOD!
Dr. Cloud is amazing. I first read his book “Boundaries with kids” at 10 years old. I was desperate to understand what I was going through at home, and his book helped me realise that I was being emotionally abused at home. I’m still working on healing 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Good book
In Uganda people with mental illness are either called "mad" and shunned as dangerous, or demon possessed and prayed over violently. There really are no services or trustworthy medications. I hope this broadcast will take a global view towards the topic.
God's word is healing!
🙌 Amen! -Team JMM
I can testify to this! God and his word healed me!
Most people think their thoughts are true. 🤯🤯💖🙌🏽🎯
Yes I faced the same. My late parents passed away a year ago and I do still missed them somehow, however when I talk to Christians fellow some.. I faced words like get passed it, u should not be missing your parents by now or do I need to get meds. Etc. It's sad frightening because you feel it is not right to grieve and yet somehow u can't help it during holiday seasons. Frankly I just wish someone can just listen to me for a while and not say anything. That's all I need and I agreed with the emotional isolation and disconnectedneds even though u attend church u realised very few ppl can understand. Somehow I felt talking to strangers are better... I also an abused kid not by my parents but one of my siblings who has also disconnected. And refuse to connect with us. Thank you for the video it is so helpful for me. Cos I always free bad after someone give me what to do and how to fix etc.
Dr Cloud is my absolute favourite guest. I think his insights and approach to this visceral subject are profound. He seems genuinely engaged, yet witty and convivial. I truly believe he has seen life in it's fullness, and complexity. It's reassuring that a believer can be so ...human and real. Life and love and faith are messy, we must recall we are all mortal here, and immortal in the everafter.
Thank you for reaching out and sharing this with us! God bless you! -Team JMM
Gratidão, pelo seu amor meu DEUS!!! Tua graça nos renova a cada manhã !!! ❤
THANK YOU GOD❤✝️✝️✝️🤍
Wow, this chat was a real gift to start the year. I'm living the worst season of my life so far, but I know that many of my problems are in my way of thinking. I'm going to dedicate myself more to this! This interview with Dr. Cloud and the amazing Joyce (she inspires me) encourages me to seek the renewal of my mind in Christ. I wish a blessed new year to all of you, thank you so much!
Really … worst season of your life hey ??? Wanna trade seasons ??? Mine’s ugly!!
My church has several counselors on staff. It's so important to have them available & some insurances even pay for it.
My daughter and I are going to the mind conference! So excited to learn in Jesus’s name 🙏
Thank you Joyce and everyone on the panel for sharing and for being so transparent 🙌
God Bless ❤
That's so great to hear! We can't wait to see you at the conference! Blessings. -Team JMM
I have spent more years hiding what i went thru than the years after hiding it .finally found a church at a women's meeting there was one lady saw me crying..ee were studying Ephesians..so i was feeling like i hsd to stay and she tokd me Jesus doesnt want me to be abused..gave me the strength to leave knowing that Jesus wouldnt judge me..i found a few years after leaving my next husband and now 22 years later ive released that and opened up on what was done enough to forgive and be loved again..prayer and someone to tell you its ok to talk about it..joyce had continued to help me forgive..been with you joyce for 4 years now..still learning and still sharing what i keep learning ❤❤❤❤
Ms. Joyce speaking so forthrightly about her abuse has helped me infinitely. I am able to listen to her and am working on my relationship with God with her brilliant tutelage.
Thank you Sis. Joyce for sharing this information!! I also deal with depression at times!! 🙏🏿❤️
We're glad to hear that this blessed you. We know that depression is very real and can cause us to feel isolated, alone, and hopeless at times. However, God wants to help us live free from depression. He wants to fill us with His joy, hope and expectation of good things for our lives. We encourage you to check out bit.ly/2y6f3BI. God bless you! -Team JMM
Happy new year . Thank you for speaking about mental health issues . I struggle with bad anxiety I 🙏 this new year will heal me . Last year was my worst year . I lost my husband in 2024 . I miss him so much . Please 🙏 for me . Amen 🙏
Sorry for your loss. My prayers for you that God bring peace and comfort
We're so sorry about the loss of your husband. God is there to hold you up, strengthen you and encourage you. He wants to take your worries, your hurts and your concerns and give you His peace and His rest. We hope this teaching "How to Overcome the Pain of Losing a Loved One" can be a blessing to you. You can find it at bit.ly/2LPvoBD. We are praying for you! -Team JMM
Perfectly said 🎁😇💡🙏🪖🎁🌻46 year's of abuse but God has totally healed me thank you God for being the hero I was missing your love all these year's thank you amen 🙏❤️🤍💙💜🤎💪💪👊🥁👊😁🙏🗝️
I need that connection Heavenly Father🙌🏾
Thank you for posting this! I'm writing my memoir and was getting ready to write about my childhood sexual trauma a couple nights ago and I started having stomach pain that was so bad I went to the ER. They ran a bunch of tests and they could find nothing wrong. So I realized I have to do some healing work before I go forward writing. So I am really thankful you posted this!
Praying for you ❤
@@ATebbs1 thank you! I'm doing much better!
Amen I pray for freedom, peace , healing and deep rooted loving fruitful relationships in our lives this year and forever. Amen
I love this podcast and I've bought Joyce's books. I'd like for Ginger to get some words out without getting interrupted now and again though. I'm sorry to say so. It's just that I'd like to hear everyone's full perspective regarding some of these topics. 😢
I love Dr Cloud. Had to buy his book Boundaries recently after listening to him on this podcast. It's been an eye opener, cant wait to watch the rest of this video
We pray it is a blessing to you! Our prayers are with you! -Team JMM
Dr Henry Cloud God bless you all. Powerful message Amen 🙏. Happy blessed New Year 2025
Happy New Year! God bless you! -Team JMM
Way to take a stand for righteousness, Joyce Meyer Ministries in the Daystar issue. Well done! 🎯🎯🎯✝️🛐
My pastor never said such things to me. Once I told him that I hadbeen in a dark place. He asked if I took my meds, which I had, he understood as his mom had some issues, too.
Thank-you for doing this broadcast.
We're so glad to hear that this blessed you! -Team JMM
Thank you for this word ❤

God bless you, Joyce and friends 🙏🏻🕊🎶⚘️
Thank u 🙏🏼
Thank you so much for this❤
May God richly bless you all
It has been so eye-opening and relieving
Very good teaching.
Wow i really liked his book from years ago. Good to hear from him
❤❤❤ EXCELLENT!! More please
God bless all of you for talking about these things. I’m so thankful for these issues being shared and explained through a biblical lens.❤️🙏🏼
We're so glad to hear that this episode blessed you! Our prayers are with you. -Team JMM
Thank you and God bless you!
Morning Women of God and Dr. Cloud God Bless you all🙏🏾
I love how content Joyce is listening, still wanting to learn more, inspiring 🫶 humble YOU’RE BEAUTIFUL
Heavenly Father I thank you for your word this morning, I needed this so much Amen 🙏🏾
Thank you so much for a spirituality mature way to discuss biblical topics and especially mental health. I miss that in sermons so much, some don’t go deep at all.
Please get the topic on christs healing from demons and epilepsy. I need deep teaching on this, no one seems to cover this in a psychological medical viewpoint. Thank you again and god bless ❤
Love and respect. 💯💯
Super healing.💯💯
It has been three years this december 27th suddenly cardiac attack
I am missing him now
It is so painfully, he was my best friend
Great podcast
39:38 I love that! Glory in your weakness! I just heard Pastor Prince preach about the same thing, including why Jesus was so mad at the Pharasees for their hypocrisy! That is so freeing!
I am sorry for your brother in law. May his soul rest in peace and all those who fell in the wars, in Jesus name. And may God take care of his left ones and all those who grief in Jesus name.
The word of God also showed me how to stand in the gap, as the Holy Spirit, counseled me on how generational curses CAN be dealt with, WITH His Help through my obedience and spending time in God's presence...In Worshipping and Praising God [God inhabits the Praises of His People]. Isaiah 43, 58 and Psalms 23, 27, 37 and 46 and many others were my place to go. In my Catholic faith tradition, the Eucharistic along with Bible study and fellowship fed, and nurished me! Forgiveness of myself and others delivered me from those "tormentors" that we're turned over to when we do not forgive as we have been forgiven as Jesus speaks about! Freedom comes in and through Christ Jesus and his making the way! For man it is impossible But Not for God! Everyday now I am truly grateful for I am in the land flowing with milk and honey [taste and see that the Lord is good! And my relationships with those around me are sweet-they give God glory!] "They will know you are my disciples by how you love one another!" Amen!❤🕊☕💁♀️And Remember: God's no respector of persons! What He has done for me and many others, like Joyce, He will do for you! He truly is a Miracle Working God-Our Father, Who art in Heaven-Hallowed Be thy Name- thy Kingdom come-thy Will Be done on earth as it is in Heaven...!
God bless and share this message around the globe, In Jesus' name, Amen! Thank you, Father!
Definitely it's the time of the mind only holy Spirit can help the most
Amen
I haven’t read the Bible before, but this Christmas, I felt a desire for something more meaningful, so I asked for one as a gift. Where do you recommend I begin reading?
Congratulations ! You could try the book of Proverbs ❤ or perhaps the gospels. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. ✝️
@@dionnedesouza2542 Thank you so much! I received a Bible for Christmas, and it’s being engraved with my name. I’m on my way to pick it up now, and I can’t wait to spend my evening reading it!
🙏💕
Definitely start somewhere in the New Testament 😊 take your time and if I was you, I'd focus on a short passage, a few chapters at a time and think about the message in them (maybe you could get some sort of study guide too). God bless
@
I’m starting tonight, 😁
Do you have a favorite?
Thank you🙏💝 thank you! God bless you and your family
Think on the word of God no matter what. Amen
Thank you for sharing your histories. How I see it, is that you take yourself seriously enough, not in a competitive way with yourself or with others. But with compassion. Maybe that's how we build a listing inner and outer ears. We can't respect others unless we respect ourselves first. Thank you. I had many gorgeous psychologists, God bless them and bless their loved ones, their teams and their ministries in Jesus name. I am sure they didn't understand what I was bubbling about 😂. But they were curious, no judgement and did the best they could out of what they knew. I am grateful to them. Thanks to you too. God bless you all, bless your loved ones and your ministries in Jesus name we pray. Love you all ❤.
Yes, when we really in deep depression we goes to extremely introvert.. once we talked then everyone have right to judges 😢
Good morning, Ladies and Dr. Henry Cloud. I really enjoyed this episode. I look forward to Talk it out Tuesdays. Happy New Year 2025.
We're happy that you enjoyed this episode! Happy New Year to you as well. God bless you! -Team JMM
Beautiful Joyce. 🙏
Thankyou
Thanyou all.
Blessings to you! For more encouragement today, check out joycemeyer.org/JMMDevo. -Team JMM
Sisters and brothers thank you for talking about mental health for me I always hear you must not believe God for healing what should I say or do when that happens??
Amen 🙏🏾
Let him please talk joyce all due respect 🙏
I feel you, we don't like to hear this. Everything is connected. We can't lie to you guys. It's ok if you don't like us but we will stick to the words. The sins hold us anxious. For example Gambling gives me the spirit of helplessness, losing control just like parkinson. So nothing is random. May God help us and free us from any spirit that does not align with God's purpose for us in Jesus name 🙏.
Happy New Year Eve everyone and God Bluess all of you.
I love t alk it out. You lady's ❤️ are so amazing i love how you bless us with all of the topics that you share with us
I love you all.❤️🙏🙌👏
Much needed info and a blessing to hear! God bless all of you and may God continue to direct your steps in serving and helping others!
That was a good and beautiful episode! So good being among mature, professional, loving and Spirit filled people. ❤🎉
We're so glad to hear that this episode blessed you! Check out joycemeyer.org/EELShow for more teachings and resources from Joyce. God bless you! -Team JMM
New year ✨️ 🤗 ❤
Our dog barks as a "Paw Patrol!" He's a Boxer-Healer! He's happiest when he's doing and being himself!
So profound
Going to have to loop
Thank you, may God give us the character to not listen, wait or identify ourselves with the monkey spirit, which goes often with the laziness spirit and the envie spirit , in Jesus name. They trivialize everything, try to push everything under the carpet. May we have a spirit of discernment and respect in Jesus name.
This has been an amazing presentation..thank you so much!❤
We're so glad to hear that this blessed you! -Team JMM
We are spirit, soul, and body. And what affects one area, the others are affected. We need to treat all parts.
We need to dig out the deep seeded lies in our beliefs.
Yep..most people think their thoughts are true..I know I deal with this.
Thank you'll so much for this. I am so very Greatful. God Bless and a Happy New Year❤
Blessings to you too! Happy New Year! -Team JMM
