Are You Happy to Go to Church?
Are you letting what you’re going through or something unfortunate that happened to you to overshadow the joy of God’s presence in your life? Repent, friend.
Let Your Gentleness be Known to All Men
Almost everybody learns to be gentle. But gentility can be expressed better by believers who walk in understanding. Why? Because such people know how to do it with sincere God-inspired love from the heart.
Rejoice in the Lord Always
Enduring afflictions, either because of your faith or circumstances in life, is part and parcel of your life as a believer. But the most important thing to understand is that through it all, don’t lose hold of Jesus.
What Brings Joy in Heaven
If you’re a ministry leader reading this, please insist on leading the church to evangelise to people. If you’re a Christian belonging to a church, never forget to preach Jesus to people who come around you or who you encounter in life. Enough of beating around the gospel. Hell must be depopulated. Play your part!
Joy Comes In The Morning
Weeping time is only when God’s presence seems missing in your life – where you have every reason to question God because things aren’t really working out as you want them to. But there’s good news: it has an expiry date. And that date isn’t in years, months or days. It’s when you discover God’s reason for doing things in His presence.
Everlasting Joy Is Yours
We live in an evil age, so tribulations abound. But Jesus has overcome the world. And once He lives in us (2 Corinthians 13:5), we’re also overcomers of the world. Our lives are different because of Christ in us.
The Right Reason For Maintaining Joy In Ministry
The right reason for maintaining joy in ministry is the assurance that God will reward your work. So rejoice whether there are issues or not because God understands you. He hasn’t and will never forget your labour of love.
Rejoice In Yourself Alone
The accomplishments you’ve chalked in ministry are worth celebrating by you. Rejoice in yourself alone for that work because it’s worth it.
Make Your Pastor Joyful For Shepherding You
You ease the pressure and burden on your shepherd’s (pastor’s) mind when you obey his teachings of Jesus Christ and become submissive to the spiritual instructions that he gives you.
Serve The Lord With Gladness
In Psalm 100:2, we’re charged as Christians to serve the Lord with gladness. The word “gladness” comes from the Hebrew word “śimchâh,” which means “joy.” You are supposed to serve the Lord with joy in your heart always. So whatever you do which has been dedicated unto God, do it with joy in your heart by the empowerment of grace.
The Crown of Aged People
“Children’s children are a crown to the aged, and parents are the pride of their children.” — Proverbs 17:6 NIV
Count It All Joy
No child of God is shielded from facing life issues. The Bible says in James 1:2 “…when (not ‘if’) you fall into trials.” However, how you respond to matters. Count it all joy. See joy in the happening of problems because they have a purpose, which is to test your faith.
