Walk In The Spirit – Joy Finale (13)

But the fruit of the Spirit is joy
Galatians 5:22 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/gal.5.22.NASB1995

Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.
John 15:4-5 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jhn.15.4-5.NASB1995

These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full.
John 15:11 NASB1995

Thank you for joining me on this journey of joy. My hope in this journey is that the Holy Spirit of joy resides in you and that you bear much fruit of joy in your heart that overflows to others and that others will notice you are different because of the joy within you. So, let us joyously praise God, the giver of joy, for filling us up with abundant joy.

🌹 For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen.

Jude 1:24-25 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/jud.1.24-25.NASB1995

Walk In The Spirit – Joy (11)

But the fruit of the Spirit is joy
Galatians 5:22 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/gal.5.22.NASB1995

It is not always easy being joyful during times of discipline and growing in our faith.
When the trials of life come.
The struggles. Hardship. Facing the unknown. God is there . . .

All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.
Hebrews 12:11 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/heb.12.11.NASB1995

🌹Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.

Walk In The Spirit – Joy (10)

But the fruit of the Spirit is joy
Galatians 5:22 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/gal.5.22.NASB1995

In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”
Luke 15:10 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/luk.15.10.NASB1995

Salvation should be celebrated! A new life, a new beginning, walking under the grace, mercy, and love of God. Are we as joyous as the angels of God over a person who has found salvation in Jesus Christ?

But we had to celebrate and rejoice, for this brother of yours was dead and has begun to live, and was lost and has been found.’ ”
Luke 15:32 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/luk.15.32.NASB1995

I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.
Luke 15:7 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/luk.15.7.NASB1995

Is salvation a one time joyous event and then put in the closet, under the bed, a moment in time unimportant, forgotten?
Isn’t salvation supposed to be life changing? Time altering? Soul surrendering? Obedience seeking? God honoring? A joyous life?

Only if the Holy Spirit is residing in us can this be accomplished.

Let us celebrate with joy over every salvation and walk alongside that person(s), encouraging and building them up in Christ for His glory and purpose.

But the fruit of the Spirit is joy
Galatians 5:22 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/gal.5.22.NASB1995

Therefore if there is any encouragement in Christ, if there is any consolation of love, if there is any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion, make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in spirit, intent on one purpose.
Philippians 2:1-2 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/php.2.1-2.NASB1995

strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience; joyously giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light.
Colossians 1:11-12 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/col.1.11-12.NASB1995

And they, after worshiping Him, returned to Jerusalem with great joy,
Luke 24:52 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/luk.24.52.NASB1995

🙏I hope and pray your day of worship united you in fellowship of the Spirit, intent on worshipping God together, as unified believers. I pray you were strengthened for the work of God in and through you and that with great joy it will carry you through the coming week.

🌹God bless.
