Are you enjoing the joy of your salvation?

When we received the Lord into our life, He gave us His joy. If you feel like you have lost your joy, you haven't, it is still there, God placed it in you at salvation.

John 15:11
"These things I have spoken to you that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.

Joy is associated with life, the very life that Jesus placed in you. A rejoicing and a delight.

Isaiah 61:7
Instead of your shame you shall have double honor, And instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion, therefore in their land they shall possess double; Everlasting joy shall be theirs.

How long beloved, is everlasting? God's word states that we have everlasting joy.  So when you feel like you are not experiencing the joy of the Lord, ask the Holy Spirit to manifest that joy in you once again. It is yours for the asking, and it is already in you.

Things that can cause us to feel like we have lost our joy, when in fact it is still there.
When we become critical of others, and become harsh in our words,

when we wound another with our words, and too much focus on self, being greedy, lust of the flesh and world, we can feel like we have no joy.
When we fail to worship and praise the Lord, we can feel like we have no joy.

Beloved, we have so much to praise God for.  Our salvation, His un-measureable grace
His love most of all, and healing of our mind and soul, and body.

Being grateful for the people He has placed in our life to help us grow in the Lord. To love us unconditionally.
Grateful for other believers who saw what we could be and would be in the Lord that stuck with us, Praise the Lord!

There are so many reasons to be joyful in the Lord. Do we feel it all the time? no, but remind yourself whether you feel it or nor, it is there.

Romans 15:13
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Beloved, if you don't feel joyful, find something that will quicken the joy that is in you, think of where you were without Jesus in your life and that should cause you to be joyful once again.
JOY= Jesus Others You,  in that order.

God Bless your day
Jesus loves you

Love in Jesus
Joy

DOES IT MATTER WHO PREACHES THE GOSPEL, AS LONG AS THE GOSPEL IS PREACHED?

 G O S P E L= GOD'S OWN SON PROVIDED ETERNAL LIFE. This is the true gospel,  the good news!! What are we to conclude about this matter? Paul makes it clear, that whoever preaches Christ and the gospel, it doesn't matter, as long as the Gospel gets preached. Philippians 1:15-16 Some indeed preach Christ even from envy and strife, and some also from goodwill.  The former preach Christ from selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my chains, but the latter out of love, knowing that I am appointed for the defense of the Gospel. What then? Only that in everyway, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes and will rejoice. Beloved, there are all kinds of preachers out there, but their motives are not our business. Those that are preaching for all the wrong reasons, could later repent, and start preaching for the right reasons.  We have seen this through the years. We are to listen for the truth of God's word. I h...

SCIENCE AND THE BIBLE.

Science proves that God's word has it right for sustaining our life. Science says, that we need   four basic elements to sustain life and survive. We need air, water, food, and light. We have it all in Jesus, if we have received Him as our Lord. Science is right. It has proven God's word is true. Acts 17:25 (Paul was speaking about the Unknown God to the men in Athens) Nor is He worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, Since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. We need air in order to breathe. When we receive Jesus we have His breath, breathing through our lungs. When we breathe, we speak the name of God. Just speaking His name, we inhale YAH and exhale WEH.   YHWH means breath of life. Our Jewish brothers and sisters know the name of God means breath of God. This is an interesting fact that we believers need to know. We also need light. John 8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, "I am the light of the world; He who follows Me shall not walk...

JESUS IS NOT A GLORIFIED BUTLER, HE IS THE SON OF GOD.

SOME BELIEVERS THINK THAT JESUS IS A GLORIFIED BUTLER.  Whatever they ask for they will have, whether it is right or wrong. JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD!!  YOU ARE NOT TO COMMAND HIM,  YOU ARE TO ASK HIM, HONOR HIM, AND RESPECT HIM AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.  I have heard some believers young in their faith and understanding, say that they have prayed for such a thing and God will give it to them. They are trusting in their faith, not their faith in God. (Works of the flesh, which is witchcraft) Witchcraft is attempting to manipulate your environment or circumstances. (SELF) Works of the flesh. Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. (1Samuel 15:23) Galatians 5;19-20 NOW THE WORKS OF THE FLESH ARE EVIDENT, WHICH ARE: Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions , jealousies, outburst of wrath , selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, and revelries, ...
