Topic: Set an overload alarm You really don’t have to do everything that everyone wants you to do, and it is perfectly acceptable to say no. Protect your peace by refusing to overload your schedule. As soon as you start feeling pressured to do more than you know you can do peacefully, let that be your overload alarm. Just as an …

Topic: THE devil has a hand in what is done in haste.

Powerful Prayer Joyce Meyer Ministries Prayer—simply talking to God and listening to Him speak to us—is one of the greatest powers available to us.

That way you have no time to dread them, and you can do them while you have the most energy. Approach them aggressively, and don’t let a lethargic attitude take over. If you put something off too …
