OUR JOY IN THE LORD IS CONTAGIOUS, WHEN WE ARE JOYFUL IT WILL EFFECT OTHERS.

AT THE STORE THE OTHER DAY, A LADY CAME IN SINGING, AND PEOPLE JUST LOOKED AT HER.

SHE WAS ENJOYING HER DAY THAT GOD HAD GIVEN TO HER. SHE WAS FULL OF THE JOY OF THE LORD.

PSALM 118:15
THE VOICE OF REJOICING AND SALVATION, IS IN THE TENTS OF THE RIGHTEOUS; THE RIGHT HAND OF THE LORD DOES VALIANTLY.

I LIKE THE OLD KING JAMES ON THIS WORD.
IT SAYS :
THE VOICE OF REJOICING AND SALVATION ARE IN THE TABERNACLES OF THE RIGHTEOUS.  

WE ARE THE TEMPLE OR TABERNACLE OF THE LORD, SO WE ARE TO BE REJOICING.

PSALM 118:24
THIS IS THE DAY THE LORD HAS MADE; I WILL REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT.

WHEN MY KIDS WERE TEENAGERS, OUR HOUSE HAD AN INTERCOM, I USE TO OPEN IT AND SING THIS IS THE DAY THE LORD HAS MADE I WILL REJOICE AND BE GLAD IN IT. TIME TO GET UP.


THERE IS TOO MUCH DOOM AND GLOOM AMONG SOME OF GODS PEOPLE.

WHERE IS THE JOY OF THE LORD?  WE ARE TO BE JOYFUL ACCORDING TO GOD'S WORD.

PSALM 97:11-12
LIGHT IS SOWN FOR THE RIGHTEOUS, AND GLADNESS FOR THE UPRIGHT IN HEART.
REJOICE IN THE LORD, YOU RIGHTEOUS, AND GIVE THANKS AT THE REMEMBRANCE OF HIS HOLY NAME.

JOHN 15:11
"THESE THINGS I HAVE SPOKEN TO YOU THAT MY JOY MAY BE FULL.

JESUS WANTS US TO BE JOYFUL, SO FIND SOMETHING THAT WILL MAKE YOU LAUGH, AND ENJOY A GOOD LAUGH, IT IS GOOD FOR US.

PROVERBS 17:22
A MERRY HEART DOES GOOD LIKE A MEDICINE, BUT A BROKEN SPIRIT DRIES THE BONES.

THERE'S NOT A LOT OUT IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW TO LAUGH ABOUT, YET GOD'S PEOPLE CAN BE JOYFUL. 

GOD HIMSELF LAUGHS, 

PSALMS 37:12-13
THE WICKED PLOTS AGAINST THE JUST AND GNASHES AT HIM WITH HIS TEETH.
THE LORD LAUGHS AT HIM, FOR HE SEES THAT HIS DAY IS COMING.

PSALM 59:8
BUT YOU, O LORD, SHALL LAUGH AT THEM;  YOU SHALL HAVE ALL THE NATIONS IN DERISION.


BELOVED, BE JOYFUL, SIT DOWN AND MAKE A 
LIST OF ALL THE LORD HAS DONE AND IS DOING FOR YOU. 

PRAISE HIM AND WORSHIP HIM, AND WHEN YOU SEE ALL HE HAS DONE, IT WILL PUT JOY IN YOUR SOUL.

REMEMBER A SONG WE USE TO SING, 

"COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS NAME THEM ONE BY ONE,  COUNT YOUR MANY BLESSINGS SEE WHAT  GOD HAS DONE.

FOCUS ON THE GOODNESS OF GOD, HIS LOVE FOR US AND ALL HIS BLESSINGS.

OUR ENEMY WANTS US TO FOCUS ON THE NEGATIVE, AND PLACE OF WORRY AND FEAR IN OUR HEART, REJECT THAT AND QUOTE GOD'S WORD ABOUT BEING JOYFUL.  SING A JOYFUL SONG.

BE A GRATEFUL AND JOYFUL PEOPLE AND IT WILL RUB OFF ON OTHERS.

LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE!

GOD BLESS YOUR DAY
JESUS LOVES YOU

LOVE IN JESUS
JOY

I’m taking this to heart today. And I’m betting the woman singing in the store was named Joy.
