Nehemiah 8: 10b … Do not sorrow, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.” (NKJV)
Proverbs 17: 22 A merry heart does good, like medicine, But a broken spirit dries the bones. (NKJV)
If we are truly Born-Again, joy is already present in us by the presence of the Holy Spirit. Joy is one of the Fruit of The Spirit listed in Galatians 5: 22 – 23.
Galatians 5: 22 – 23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, (23) gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. (NKJV)
(Amplified Classic) But the fruit of the [Holy] Spirit [the work which His presence within accomplishes]
Joy is a major Spiritual force.
We must choose the Joy and activate it, otherwise it will remain present but in-active.
Joy, like all the Fruit of the Spirit, must be exercised regularly in order for the fruits to develop. We must always be Fruit of the Spirit minded.
When I walk the Love Walk it produces the fruit of Joy and all the related fruit of the Spirit.
When we are praying applying our faith to the promises in God’s Living Word rejoicing in the Lord will bring us to a place of rest in our Faith.
We must Rejoice always in every circumstance of life.
Philippians 4: 4 Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! (NKJV)
