Joy

by Pastor Marie Esposito

Romans 15:13 – I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with JOY, and peace, because you trust in Him; BELIEVING [through the experience of your faith] Then you will overflow, [abound, bubble over] with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.

 

JOY IS A FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT’S PRESENCE. Galatians 5:22 an indication that He is present.

 

Hebrews 12:1,2 – Fix your eyes on Jesus, looking unto Jesus, the Author and Finisher, the Pioneer of the Founder and Perfecter, the Source, the Originator of the faith, the CHAMPION WHO INITIATES AND PERFECTS OUR FAITH…THE SOURCE OF ALL JOY!

 

Hebrews 12:1-2 (AMP)

I Peter 1:8.9

Proverb 15:13

John 17:12-13

 

Mother Theresa quotes:

When your heart is burning with love for God, you will be filled with joy.

Joy comes from belonging to God, living with Him, and being His own.

Joy is infectious.

 

Joy is the very essence of God’s Character I Chronicles 16:27

Proverb 15:13 – A joyful heart makes a cheerful face

A happy heart makes the face cheerful

A glad heart makes a cheerful countenance

A glad heart makes a happy face

A cheerful heart brings a smile to your face.
