“Joy-lets” will unclog the pipes of a continuous flow of joy in your life! Let’s review our series from the beginning with our opening three scriptures on joy. The Bible tells us: 1. “This is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it.” (Ps. 118:24) It is a choice to rejoice! One of the greatest truths you can ever learn as a Christian is that you are not a slave to your feelings! Let feelings in your car, but never let them in the driver’s seat! Feelings are meant to be felt…but they are not meant to be followed! 2. “Rejoice in...

Approximately two years ago, we had a precious 18-year-old young woman move here to the Nashville area. She is a pastor’s kid and one of ten siblings. She came to Joy Church wounded and spiritually burned out. Anne and I have such a compassion for “PKs” as they live so much of their lives in a “fish bowl.” If you don’t walk on water you can come under a very high level of scrutiny. This young lady came to Joy and slowly began to get her spiritual fervor back. She is now fully healed, fired up and serves enthusiastically on the praise team! She went with...

It is amazing what the power of joy will do in your life! Let's review our series by first remembering what the Bible tells us: 1. “This is the day the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it.” (Ps. 118:24) Notice the little word “will.” That tells us something very important. It is a choice to rejoice! One of the greatest truths you can ever learn as a Christian is that you are not a slave to your feelings!
