Topic: The Force Of Joy
Devotional
Strength comes from Joy and Joy comes from God’s presence.
In the midst of pressure, what you must not lose is the strength that comes from having joy in your heart.
Where do you find joy? Have you ever woken up to not feeling very joyful? The Psalmist in Psalm 92 tells us that we should deliberately praise Him in the morning, for His Love and for His Faithfulness. This will enable us get joy that makes us serve others and go through the day that God has prepared for us.
Where do you get your Joy?
My prayer for you is that you will find joy primarily by spending time praising God in the morning intentionally.
Stay in His presence until the Joy begins to well up from within you.
Find your Joy!

Your thoughts are very deep.” – (NKJV)
