This is the best book I have ever read. Because of the ways in which God spoke to me through this book during a very difficult time in my life, I gave my heart to Him!! Recommend to all!!!

[Crystal · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very, very good. Practical applications of developing and walking in the fruit of the Spirit rather you’re a brand new believer or seasoned believer. There’s a lot of scripture based wisdom. Definitely a book that will help you grow as a man or woman of God. I grew through it and am glad I read it ❤️

Another of Joyce Meyer’s scripture based guides on how to have a great life with God’s grace word as the guide. I so appreciate the insights and adherence to truth from the word, as well as the simple way in which Meyer provides instruction.
A good read.

[Beryl · Rating 5 out of 5]

Beautiful Book....This book helped me to understand about patience...I thought patient had to do with how I wait in a line...although that is true...I had no problem with that part...I was gud at doing that.....But I did'nt know that I had to be patient with God while waiting for spiritual breakthroughs........so it helped me a lot...to ease a bit.....

Some good insights. Parts were not as good.

[Andrea · Rating 4 out of 5]

I read one chapter a day so I could let everything soak in. I took a lot of notes in my journal along the way. Like always, Joyce Meyer has wonderful things to "say" and read about.
