I Promise Joy
I Promise Joy
These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may be in you and that your joy may be full.
John 15:11
Learning to pray the promises of God is like strapping a jet-pack on your prayer life.
On the final night of His life, Jesus promises joy to His disciples. While they were understandably sorrowful, He nevertheless gave them the promise of joy.
When you have Jesus, you have joy.
In European monarchs, when the king leaves the castle, the flag is removed. When he returns, the flag is raised. Someone once said, “Joy is the flag flown high from the castle of my heart when the King is in residence there.”
You don’t need to live without joy. Joy is based not on the absence of problems, but on the presence of Christ. He promises you joy, and you can take it to the bank.
Loving Father, today I receive from You the promise of joy in Jesus’ Name.
Please PRAY!
