This is a great book if you struggle with anxiety and you want to get over it! I finished it quicker than I thought, even with life events, I loved the book。 Since reading this, I have been having less anxiety attacks and panic attacks。 It really helped me to over come them, so glad I bought this book!

Cons: - I felt like it was really redundant and could’ve been summarized in a blog post。 - as someone with anxiety, I felt guilt that my faith isn’t strong enough because I need medicine。 She does state that God gives us medicine and doctors。 So that may be a personal struggle。 Pros:- lots of quotes with references to which bible and what edition I overall liked the book and really understood the message behind it。 I think that it’s a great message but I’m going to keep taking my SSRI。

One of the things I appreciate about Joyce is that she is willing to share personal examples from her own life。 She doesn’t preach as much as she teaches from experience。 I found this book to be insightful and encouraging。 I like the practical things that we can actually do to better our lives and our relationships with God and others。 I highly recommend this book - even for those who aren’t struggling with anxiety — they too would benefit from the teaching。 Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher One of the things I appreciate about Joyce is that she is willing to share personal examples from her own life。 She doesn’t preach as much as she teaches from experience。 I found this book to be insightful and encouraging。 I like the practical things that we can actually do to better our lives and our relationships with God and others。 I highly recommend this book - even for those who aren’t struggling with anxiety — they too would benefit from the teaching。 Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this book。 The opinions are solely my own and a positive review was not required。 。。。more

Do you struggle with worry and anxiety? At one time, I had a big struggle with it。 。。 but now not as often, thankfully。 The Answer to Anxiety by Joyce Meyer is a fairly short book that could be helpful for those who struggle with anxiety。The Answer to Anxiety is based on Philippians 4:6-7 (NKJV), " Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and peace of God, which passes all understanding, will guard your heart Do you struggle with worry and anxiety?

Pastor Joyce Meyer's latest writing dives into stress, worrying, and anxiety by using the groundwork of the writing from the Bible passage Philippians 4:6-7。 Meyer gives the reader several keys to overcoming anxiety, which suggestions for remembering the past victories the person has been brought through, trusting in God, and believing that God is in control。 She also covers the power of prayer by being definitive in prayer requests to getting the person's mind off their troubles by praying for Pastor Joyce Meyer's latest writing dives into stress, worrying, and anxiety by using the groundwork of the writing from the Bible passage Philippians 4:6-7。 Meyer gives the reader several keys to overcoming anxiety, which suggestions for remembering the past victories the person has been brought through, trusting in God, and believing that God is in control。 She also covers the power of prayer by being definitive in prayer requests to getting the person's mind off their troubles by praying for other people and dives into showing gratitude, having peace, and not letting the worries build up, instead dealing with them one at a time without piling them up。The text is easy to read, which can be used as a devotion by reading one chapter a day or reading multiple ones。 For an in depth review, visit my page at : https://lancewrites。wordpress。com/202。。。 。。。more

I've read many of Meyer's books, and they never fail to encourage me。 This was no exception。This book is a useful tool, even for those who don't struggle with anxiety on a regular basis。 Meyer uses personal examples that will likely resonate with readers。 Numerous Bible verses are referenced to go along with her experiences。 Meyer also points out how the Bible can work in conjunction with therapy and, if needed, medication。 Practical suggestions are given throughout to help the reader deal with I've read many of Meyer's books, and they never fail to encourage me。 This was no exception。This book is a useful tool, even for those who don't struggle with anxiety on a regular basis。 Meyer uses personal examples that will likely resonate with readers。 Numerous Bible verses are referenced to go along with her experiences。 Meyer also points out how the Bible can work in conjunction with therapy and, if needed, medication。 Practical suggestions are given throughout to help the reader deal with anxiety, and they are all linked to the Word, such as showing how anxiety is rooted in fear。 She points out these four keys for readers to remember:1。 Remember past victories。2。 Fight the good fight of faith。3。 Believe that God is in control。4。 Trust God。Some of my favorite quotes:- "Every day you spend worrying is a day you waste and one you will never get back。"- "Anxiety is spending today dreading tomorrow。"- "Pray immediately when you become anxious。"- "Anxiety is caused by continually trying to solve problems you cannot solve。"- "Peace is trusting God in the midst of life's storms。"Disclaimer: I received a complimentary copy, but I wasn't required to leave a positive review。 。。。more

Author Joyce Meyer has a way of making God’s word relevant and teaches us how to apply it to our daily lives。 I have read other books by her, but this book had a different tone and feeling。 Perhaps because it was written during a personal trial (no spoilers from me)。Joyce presents Biblical strategies on how to address anxiety in our lives and explains the strategy in five simple steps。 As a person of the Christian faith, the strategy was not new but written in a manner that makes God’s desire fo Author Joyce Meyer has a way of making God’s word relevant and teaches us how to apply it to our daily lives。 I have read other books by her, but this book had a different tone and feeling。 Perhaps because it was written during a personal trial (no spoilers from me)。Joyce presents Biblical strategies on how to address anxiety in our lives and explains the strategy in five simple steps。 As a person of the Christian faith, the strategy was not new but written in a manner that makes God’s desire for us to live a peaceful life eye-opening。 I appreciated Joyce’s gentle writing style on this topic, a change from the bold delivery some have seen on television broadcasts。 I also appreciated Joyce’s emphasis that Jesus, therapy (and medication) all work together。I highly recommend this book to anyone who desires simple knowledge on dealing with and overcoming anxiety。 The recommendations are easy to implement, and I experienced peace while reading the chapters。I received an advanced copy of the book for an honest review。 。。。more

We know we will have problems because we live in a sinful world。 Meyer says if we learn to deal with the daily troubles quickly, we will not develop anxiety disorders。 She learned the importance of this when, near the end of 2017, she became very ill because of stress。 That experience was a turning point in her life, she says。Meyer bases her book on Philippians 4:6-7。 She gives four commands from that passage:We are not to be anxiousWe are to prayWe are to be thankfulWe are to enjoy peace。She gi We know we will have problems because we live in a sinful world。 Meyer says if we learn to deal with the daily troubles quickly, we will not develop anxiety disorders。 She learned the importance of this when, near the end of 2017, she became very ill because of stress。 That experience was a turning point in her life, she says。Meyer bases her book on Philippians 4:6-7。 She gives four commands from that passage:We are not to be anxiousWe are to prayWe are to be thankfulWe are to enjoy peace。She gives good strategy for each of those points with practical suggestions for dealing with worry and anxiety。 Her suggestions are based on the Word。 And in case we think she has conquered all this, she gives examples from her own life of how she has had to work through these commands too。Here are some of the insights I really appreciate。 One is that anxiety is rooted in fear。 That's one reason why trusting God and believing He loves us is so important。 Another insight is our frustration with not knowing as much as God。 And we try to solve problems we were never meant to solve。 We are rather to give them over to God and then trust Him to work in His time。 And then she reminds us that we often complain about a situation or a person without having prayed about it first。 Ouch。 And, Paul did not pray that peoples' problems would go away。 Rather, he prayed they would bear it with a good attitude。 And, Meyer says gratitude is a form of spiritual warfare。 How about wanting peace so deeply that you ask God to change you rather than your circumstances?That is just some of the good teaching in this book。 Meyer gives good strategy with practical ideas to deal with worry and anxiety。 The book is very readable and I recommend it for anyone who wants to successfully conquer worry and anxiety。Food for thought: “We should always be growing spiritually, being gradually transformed into the image of Jesus Christ。” (1277/1624)I received a complimentary egalley of this book from the publisher。 My comments are an independent and honest review。 。。。more

I've read a lot of Joyce Meyer's books over the years, and one of the reasons I am drawn to her's is because she freely writes about her own personal experiences, giving her books an intimacy that is lacking in others。 Her newest book, The Answer to Anxiety, is another book carefully written by Joyce partially because she was searching for answers to help in her own life。 I especially appreciated her thoughts on being grateful no matter what the circumstances are in our lives。 I have to admit—th I've read a lot of Joyce Meyer's books over the years, and one of the reasons I am drawn to her's is because she freely writes about her own personal experiences, giving her books an intimacy that is lacking in others。 Her newest book, The Answer to Anxiety, is another book carefully written by Joyce partially because she was searching for answers to help in her own life。 I especially appreciated her thoughts on being grateful no matter what the circumstances are in our lives。 I have to admit—that's a hard thing for me to do!!! Her explanation goes a long way towards bringing me to a place where I am more comfortable with that idea。 This is another 5 star book in my opinion。 。。。more
