Christian Nonfiction. Religion & Spirituality. Nonfiction. HTML:Joyce Meyer has a knack for coining phrases-her fans call them Joyceisms-and one of her best loved is "Where the mind goes, the man follows." This was the basis for Battlefield of the Mind, and in her latest book, Meyer provides "power thoughts," bringing the reader to a new level of ability to use the mind as a tool to achievement.
In Power Thoughts, she outlines a flexible program to turn thoughts into habits, and habits into success. Sections include:
The Power of a Positive You
5 Rules for Keeping Your Attitude at the Right Altitude
More Power To You bulleted keys to successful thinking in each chapter
The Power of Perspective
Nobody has more of a "can-do" attitude than Joyce Meyer. Now you can, too.

This is a follow-up book to "Battlefields of the Mind" (also available in this library) to teach control over your thinking and positively affect every area of your life.

A great book on how our thoughts do affect us.

My wife watches Joyce Meyer's just about every morning, so when she recommended I read this book, I felt she had good reason to want me to do so. Boy was she right. This was such a treat to read and I learned so much from this.

Now of course this is a Christian book and as such is based on Christian principles and backed up with Biblical principles and references. However, most of these principles are applicable despite your religious affiliation (though I would be remiss if I didn’t encourage you to at least take a look at what Christ is all about).

Look at some of these power thoughts. “I will not live in fear”, “I am difficult to offend”, “I love people and I enjoy helping them”, “I am content and emotionally stable”, “I live in the present and enjoy each moment”, “I am disciplined and self-controlled.”

Add to those, the more Christian focused ones like, “I put God first in my life”, “I can do whatever I need to do in life through Christ”, “God meets all my needs abundantly”, along with others and you have a very powerful, life-change book. Definitely recommend this to all Christians, those seeking and non-Christians who might just want some good powerful thoughts to change your thinking patterns and make positive changes in your life.

I have read many of Joyce Meyer's books and they are all helpful. She has a great sense of humor and is easy to read. I found this book so useful that I bought a copy (I usually take them out of the library). ( )

Joyce Meyer has put together a program using twelve steps to win the battle of the mind. Each step is described and explained, then followed up with questions to aid the reader in applying the principles taught. Joyce uses principles taught in scripture as a basis for her concepts and to aid the reader in using faith in the word of God to stand firm on winning the war that wages in one’s mind.

I found the book easy to read, and well written. The book’s format took me through each step in a progressive manner that was easy to adapt. I enjoyed the thought provoking questions proposed after each principle. I recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a system to apply in an effort to gain control of their thinking process.

I received a copy of the book through Goodreads in exchange for a review. I received no additional compensation and was not required to write a positive review. ( )
