welcome to Enjoying Everyday Life with
New York Times bestselling author Joyce
Meyer on today’s program Joyce will be
teaching from her series trust God and
do good the answer to everything is that
simple trust God and do good it’s so
freeing to believe God has everything
under control because that means we can
spend less time worrying and more time
trying to help others now here’s Joyce
with today’s teaching for
me to to gladly take care of the man who
sexually abused me weak after week after
week after week for about 15 years and
to take care of a mother who knew what
he was doing but didn’t have the courage
to do anything about it for me to be
able because of my love for God to take
care of them was the greatest Victory
I’ve ever
had
and bar I tell you it had side
[Applause]
effects I mean here was one side effect
our ministry just
like okay so I can sit around oh God
what you God I’m trusting you for my
Ministry to grow oh God I’m trusting you
for my Ministry to grow come on are you
out
there oh God I’m trusting you for Pro
for a promotion work I’m trusting you
God I’m trusting you and all of a sudden
God that’s good you’re trusting me now
here’s a
little here here’s a little good you can
do
hello trust the Lord and do
good
oh well God does it have to be a house
oh my
gosh I recall another time when a
somebody came back from lunch and told
me that they heard a couple sitting
behind him at the table back behind them
just cutting me to
Pieces well this was the wife of a man
that we gave a lot of business to and
man I got my backup
[Applause]
that’s what that means you know it’s
like boy we can straighten our back up
on well if he thinks we’re giving him
any more business he’s got another thing
coming and I’m going to do this and
tomorrow I’m going to do that and about
3:00 in the morning the Lord said now
now that you’re done can I tell you what
you’re going to
do come on sometimes we just got a spout
off for a few
hours can I tell you what you’re going
to do you’re you’re going to send them a
[Applause]
present but the minute that I
agreed I had this really weird Joy hit
me see it’s a
secret
it’s a secret that only we can
understand come
[Applause]
on you got to get this this is a kingdom
secret that only Kingdom
people can
get you overcome evil with good Romans
12:21
but it’s not just hearing me preach
about
it come on you’re going to go
home you’re going to go back to
work and I don’t
know maybe you’ll be praying about
something and God will tell you to offer
that person where you work that has been
so mean to
you and now you heard their car is not
running and God’s going to maybe tell
you to offer to loan them your second
[Applause]
car you got it brother you just laugh at
that right it’s like H you got to be
kidding that ain’t
[Applause]
happening okay now that’s what it means
to let your light
shine God
Amen it’s not just getting out your cell
phone and turning the light
[Applause]
on let your light shine means you put
your trust in God and you do this most
ridiculous
thing that only somebody in the Kingdom
would
get and you do it and then you sit
back and you
watch while God shock everybody you know
by what he does in your
[Applause]
life trust in the
Lord and do
good well when God first told me I was
going to send those people a
gift I will have to tell you that I said
okay and but the gift I wanted to send
them was my book me and my big
mouth
I am telling you the honest of God’s
truth that is what I wanted to send
them but God wouldn’t let me do that so
I wrote a letter told them how much I
appreciated
them sent them a gift certificate to go
out and
eat I even really wanted to make the
gift certificate from the restaurant
where they were talking about me there
like I mean honestly I just my flesh
just kept trying to find some way to let
them know that I
knew and now look at how good I’m being
to
you come on your flesh is
crazy just totally
crazy what are you supposed to do when
you’re being mistreated what did Jesus
do when he was being
mistreated 1 Peter
2:23 well I haven’t gotten off off my
first page here so
I look at look at that look at all the
stuff I got for this I
mean good
[Music]
gracious first Peter
2:23 I love this scripture so much that
I had this printed out on a sign and
it’s on my office wall when he was
reviled and
insulted he did not revile or offer
insult in return when he was abused and
suffered he made no threats of
Vengeance but he trusted himself and
everything to him who judges
fairly himself and everything yourself
and everything you trust yourself and
everything to him who is a righteous and
a fair judge Hebrews 10:30 says for we
know him who said vengeance is
mine retribution and the meeting out of
full Justice rest with me I will repay I
will exact the
compensation says the Lord and again the
Lord will judge and determine and solve
and settle the cause and the cases of
his people can I tell you today that God
is on your
case come on God is on your
case God is fighting for you and I know
that I know that I know this one of the
hardest things in the world for us to
endure is when people are not treating
us right and it’s really hard if it’s a
Christian
somebody and we just don’t understand
why God is not just all up in the middle
of
them making them treat us
right I think that’s just like one of
the hardest things in the world to
swallow and I’ve gone through that I was
in a situation for a long time where a
Christian just was not treating me
right and God wouldn’t let me leave he
made me
stay made me treat the person right pray
for him
yeah I was trusting God to get me out of
there come on
now and God said no you stay and do some
good
I also love acts 10:38 you know Jesus
really I mean he was judged and
criticized he was spit on he was beaten
he was mocked his own family thought he
was nuts and acts 10:38 says God
anointed and consecrated Jesus of
Nazareth the Holy Ghost with strength
and ability and power and he went about
doing
good in the midst of everything that he
was going through while he was being
reviled and insulted he went about doing
good do you know your only job when you
get up in the morning I don’t care if
it’s Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday
Thursday or Friday your only job when
you get up in the morning is trust
God and do
good trust God and do good now how many
of you will admit that when you’re
having a problem you can get pretty
cranky
how many of you know when you’re having
a problem you can blame it on
everybody do good nobody does good to
me why should I encourage anybody nobody
encourages
me I do all the work around here and you
guys just lay around here and do nothing
and I’m sick and tired sick and tired
I’m being sick and tired of being sick
and
[Applause]
tired but I’m trusting God
God I am trusting God to make you treat
me
right well there it is right there I am
trusting God to make you treat me
right and I don’t understand God why
you’re not making them treat me right
did it ever occur to
you that maybe God is using that person
on
you
[Music]
what are you talking
about well you know what we’re all just
Diamonds in the
Rough I’ll tell you
what when God allowed me into fellowship
with
him man I was such a mess but I had
potential and you know what
you’ve got
[Applause]
potential but you also got some stuff
that’s got to be worked
[Applause]
out a lot of stuff you’re right sister
thank you I was afraid to say
that and I tell you God used people on
me God used Dave on
me and Dave would tell you if I hand him
the microphone he would tell you that he
felt like one of his main jobs in my
life was to Crucify My
[Applause]
Flesh I’ll just give you an example like
I might be going through something
really bad and I would go to him
and and honestly he would look at me
sometimes and say I am not going to feel
sorry for
you I mean I went wild inside just
how could you be so mean how could you
be so uncared you just don’t have any
emotions you don’t care about
