THE SPIRIT OF JOY AND PEACE

THE SPIRIT OF JOY AND PEACE

Nehemiah 8: 10 says… The joy of the Lord is our strength.

John 15: 11    these things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

 What John is saying is that to be joyful in the Lord is to be established in the word of God.

 To be established is to be rooted in the word, so when situations arrive unexpectedly you will understand where to pull strength from. Stay alert and keep your joy.

 That’s why Paul stated in Eph 10… be strong in the Lord and the power of His might… Gods might.

 I understand what a lot of people are going through. I visit the Hospitals often, friends from church and loved ones, there are hours of prayer…

2^nd Timothy 1: 7     For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

You can’t feed a sound mind from watching television 24- 7. It will feed you lies and fear.

We shouldn’t think one minute  “I can do this”, and the next minute Jesus hold my hand.

Sounds like the spirit of Satan stepped in and stole your joy and power.

Satan the devil comes to kill, steal and destroy your joy, your peace and for sure your sound thinking. He is the father of deception.

To have the peace of God in your life you must know how to resist the devil and his lies. If you are a believer in Christ Jesus he has no right in any part of your life.

Jesus defeated him and redeemed us by his shed blood, and when he was nailed at the cross every blessing that heaven has to offer was made available through that finished work of the cross by Jesus Christ.

Your life, peace, joy, prosperity, hope, happiness and an eternal future with God depends on the time focused in the word and your faith in the word.

God loves you and wants peace and joy for you. You can find it through and in his word.

God bless,
