"Don't Let the Killjoys Kill Your Joy"

Send us Fan Mail Joy is a precious commodity. It is the strength of the Christian. “The joy of the Lord is our strength.” And “The fruit of the Spirit is joy.” Then we have the famous verse that says, “In Your presence is fullness of joy and at Your right hand are pleasures forever more.” (Ps.16:11) If you are living in the presence of God you will have joy, no matter what. Joy is the nectar that supplies the honey in our lives. Its sweetness attracts. But we need to know there are enemies of our joy that are on the loose! Satan wants to kill your joy! This hater of men can’t stand people having joy, or enjoying righteous things. He is the father of all the other killjoys that can invade your life. And they come uninvited; they are intruders disguised as guests. They look like they’re shopping in your store, but they are shoplifters; they have come to steal your joy (Jn.10:10a). A man arrived home from the grocery store with his 8 year old son and discovered he had a candy bar that he hadn’t paid for. The dad was upset and immediately told him to get back into the car and then drove him to the … jewelry store. Joy is located in the jewelry store of your life. To have this taken is no candy bar theft; Satan is taking this jewel of your life. Joy is what makes life enJOYable. See Acts 13:52. Stay Connected with Grace Church!
