Joyce Meyer - The Battlefield of the Mind


Having been published in October of 2002, my only regret about reading Battlefield of the Mind – is to have not read it sooner.  Joyce Meyer has done a splendid job in writing this book, and I sincerely feel that it is a God inspired work.

Joyce is a well-known Biblical teacher and multi-million selling author of more than 70 books.  As a child, she was sexually abused, and was also a victim of an emotionally abusive first marriage.  She is no stranger to negative thinking and strongholds of the mind, and has personally experienced the worst of it – but more importantly, she has lived to conquer these strongholds and turn her life around.

For anyone struggling to gain control of their mind and their emotions – and that would be most of us – this is a must read!  The entire book is scripturally based, to the point, and filled with a wealth of knowledge.

As a Believer in Christ Jesus, I found it to be encouraging, inspiring, and right on the money. However, I would also recommend this book to anyone – regardless of his or her belief system, as the challenges faced on the “battlefield” of the mind is something everyone faces on a daily basis.  As long as you can keep an open mind, the core principles and ideals of this book, however “religious” they may be, can still be applied to your benefit. 

Meyer’s writing style is easy to read and understand, but this is not a novel.  It is packed full of information and insights that can help you arm yourself against the attacks of the devil and negative thinking, and reads as such.  It’s not something you speed through or read for pure enjoyment, but something you should really take your time with, and allow the information to fully sink in. 

Battlefield of the Mind really does shed light on the ways of the devil, and even our own ways, that can have serious negative impacts on our lives and of those around us.  I encourage everyone to read this book – and then to read it again!  You won’t regret it.  And, if put into practice – along with the Word – it can really change your life.
