PLB'S CONFESSIONS 104- JOY


Joy is an outburst of happy emotion. Joy is usually expressed outwardly in dancing, singing, jumping and sometimes crying (happy hot tears😭). Happiness is benign joy but joy is an eruption of happy vibes and juices which is expressed outwardly. You can be happy and keep it to yourself, but joy, you can't keep it to yourself, it'll take you over! Joy usually knows no bounds in it's expression.

As a Christian you already have this joy inside of you! (We blessed man, we blessed😊). Galatians5:22 declares that joy is a natural fruit (result) for God's kids. We don't pray or ask for it, we simply activate it from within by CHOOSING to be joyous! Dazall!

James1:2-3 says to COUNT IT all joy when we pass through diverse tests. This means it's a matter of choice for the Christian to be joyous, you can decide to consider it as bad or as an opportunity to grow and improve your life. This is not a case of "I'll be happy if things were going alright" kinda talk. This is a case of being joyous irrespective of what you're going through knowing that all things are working together for your good as God's child.

For the natural man challenges and trying times may make him miserable and even kill him but for God's kids the Bible calls challenges "tests", "trials", "bread". We absolutely outclass any and every challenge in might and wisdom and God is confident we've already won ever before the challenges began. So we are to be joyous IN the trying times and keep dancing and enjoying our lives.

You can affirm the joy of the Lord in you with these words below:

I'm a child of God
Therefore I have joy in my spirit as a spring
No lifeless, boring times with me
Heaven is in me, the joys of heaven are springing in me
I have joy unspeakable and full of glory at all times
No matter the challenges I go through, I have already won!
I won when Jesus won, so I've got my garment of praise on
And praising God in victory!!!
Hallelujah!

A bientot,
Pastor Lams πŸ˜Ž.

Count the Cost

  Luke  14:28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? I'd never forget a knowledge I got in my Economics class while I was in my Pre-degree programme in 2013. The lecturer asked "what comes first, consumption or production?", without any hesitation, everyone shouted " Production ". The lecturer looking at us unsatisfied with some subtle grin on his face, asked " why?" , a guy raised his hand confidently, got up and said " because we produce before consumption can take place", the lecturer laughed, and we all for a minute looked bemused with certain indistinct chatters here and there, after some minutes, the lecturer called the young man and asked "so what happens when you produce and there's no one to consume it", and for about some few seconds, there was a seeming silence in the hall, you could hear a pin drop. The loud silence was fol...
