God's Joy over You
- It can be very hard for us to accept that we bring joy to God,
- but this is clearly taught by Jesus in the two parables — the Lost Sheep and the Lost Coin.
- Can you truly believe what Jesus said to be true about yourself?
Experiencing Joy through Finding our Purpose
- If we are Christians, we have an incredible purpose:
- Our destiny is to rule future universe(s) in a way that displays us as reflecting the character, love and creativity of God himself.
- Our present struggles are part of this preparation as God shapes who we are.
- Understanding our future changes everything about how we see ourselves in this present world.
Looking for Pleasure in All the Right Places—Finding the Greatest Joy in God
- If you want to grow in your Christian life, the answer is not to try harder, but to be motivated in the best possible way—the joy of discovering the pearl and the treasure.
- There is nothing like the the joy of loving and being loved so intensely.
Knowing How Much you are Loved by God (Eph 3:14-21)
The greatest joy in the Christian life is to feel and know the intensity of the love of Jesus, that surpasses knowledge.
An Overwhelming Experience of Joy and Peace
There are Scriptures that speak of transcendent experiences of Jesus in the life of a believer. -What are these? and is there anything we can do in order to have them ourselves?
