Permission Granted "Eat The Cookie, Buy The Shoes" By Joyce Meyer



Joyce Meyer "Eat The Cookie, Buy The Shoes"
Giving Yourself Permission to Lighten Up

Engrained in our culture is the belief that unbending discipline is the only sure way to success. You must go to the gym five times a week, never order the dessert, and don't even think about buying that dress you keep staring at in the store window. Breaking from such a regimented lifestyle is a sign of weakness, right? Wrong!-and Joyce wants to tell us why...

Though setting rules in our lives are important, it's just as important that we break them from time-to-time. Structure is a powerful tool, but when diverging from your own goals is seen as catastrophic, it can have a hugely negative effect on us. Balance is a core value in life and every once in awhile we deserve to indulge in a guilty pleasure or two. So don't feel bad about straying from your goals every once-in-awhile and in fact, embrace it: eat the cookie and buy the shoes!

Jesus Christ Is God's Answer To The Sinner's Prayer.

Psalm 4:1-8
There is a great message of the Gospel here.
By ourselves, we are sinners, turning God’s glory to shame, loving delusions and seeking false gods (2).
By grace, God has done something about this - ‘the Lord has set apart the godly for Himself’ (3).
When we pray, ‘Answer me’ (1), we have this confidence: ‘the Lord will hear when I call to Him’ (3). The Lord hears the sinner’s prayer, ‘Give me relief from my distress; be merciful to me and hear my prayer’ (1).
Jesus Christ is God’s Answer to this prayer. Christ brings relief (salvation). This salvation arises from the mercy of God. In Christ, we have a ‘joy’ and ‘peace’ which the world can neither give nor take away (7-8).
When the seeking sinner comes with question, ‘Who can show us any good?’ (6), the Gospel Answer is always the same - Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Rebuilding, Revival, Restoration (Psalm 85)

In Psalm 85, we have three great lessons:
* the principle of rebuilding
- There's work for us to do.
The prayer of the Psalmist comes from a time when the Lord's people needed the challenging words of Haggai and the inspiring leadership of Nehemiah. We dare not be apathetic when the Lord's work lies in ruins. We must rise to the challenge. The Lord's work must not be left in ruins. We must build on the one sure foundation - Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 2:11).
* the prayer for revival - As we work, we must also pray.
In the work of the Lord, it is not all about what we do. There needs to be a real looking to the Lord for His blessing - "Restore us again ... Will You not revive us again, that Your people may rejoice in You?" (verses 4, 6).
* the promise of restoration - Working and praying, let us look to the Lord to send His blessing.
"God promises peace to His people ... that His glory may dwell in our land ... The Lord will indeed give what is good, and our land will yield its harvest" (verses 8-9, 12).

Promises

The promises of God are not subject to the will of men. They are eternal, written, steadfast, and always yes and amen.
