About this deal

Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth' (2 Tim.

She understands and describes the feelings and problems in ways that made me sit up and go, "thats me! Its a struggle and I'm not there yet but, I am going to live the life NOW that Christ died for me to have. People tell me that I actually look at least 15 years younger today than I did when I first began to diligently study the Word and make it the central focus of my entire life. I found this book and the workbook to be great tools in helping get your mind cleaned up, organized, and helping to be empowered to conquer life's challenges. Not everything is so cut-and-dry as "I should give the dress away, because if I keep it, I am being selfish.Meyer offers a mash-up of common sense and New Thought metaphysics dressed up in Christian-sounding language. This book reminds us to pay attention to our thought life because our mind is the battlefield where the spiritual battle for our soul is taking place.

Part three talks about the "wilderness mentalities"and Joyce uses the example of the children of Israel spending 40 years in the desert and how their mental state prohibited them from advancing forward. I think the author, Joyce Meyer, is truly led by God and if you read this book and follow the biblical directions, you will be well on your way to being properly prepared and adequately armed to fight this battle. Initially I started out using this book as a Bible study guide - it worked well for this as the chapters are short and compact. She often quotes from the King James, latching onto words which have changed in meaning so that she can twist the text. i have several of her books as well as the JM/The Everyday Life Bible and as someone else mentioned in another review (or several actually), her 'translations' in italics that seem to be kind of thrown in here and there does sometimes get a little distracting (i'm easily distracted lol) so i just skip over them and go back to them later in case i feel the need for clarification.I was quick to open my mouth when people made mad, totally didn't think before I spoke, didn't care what people thought. There's a premise that I couldn't get behind, and this is especially present in the first two sections.

I was in a very dark place after a breakup due to some bad decision making and this was exactly what I needed--someone to provide encouragement as well as a push. While the first 2/3 of the book is highly enlightening and well worth the read, the last 1/3 made the book for me. I knew who Joyce Meyer was but hadn't watched her on tv or listened to her preach, so I didn't come in with an opinion. It was slow for me to read because there was so much in it to digest (and also, it's not a book to read if you're looking for something light to read - her writing style is light, but the ideas presented in the book are anything but light). it's taking me longer to finish that book (i've gotten into the habit of reading 2-3 books at a time, What's so Amazing About Grace and Resolution for Women are also on my nightstand) but i'll be back with a review on it soon.

If you’ve ever dealt with things like worry, doubt, confusion, depression, anger, condemnation…you've experienced firsthand the attacks in your mind. When I speak in tongues, my mind is unfruitful until God gives either me or someone else the understanding of what I am saying; then my mind becomes fruitful. i could go on and on about how i used to think and believe but the bottom line is this book changed my life in ways i didn't think possible.
