James Chapter 1 verses 2-3

Consider it pure joy,

my brothers,

whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that

the testing of your faith develops

perseverance.

***

We don’t usually face trials with  joy do we?  If only we could use our faith more in the difficult circumstances, persevere in faith and let God be in charge instead of ourselves, we would find life much easier.  Maybe you are in a difficult situation today, remember the disciples – we must have faith even as small as a mustard seed.  Let us not give up in the testing of our faith, don’t let the devil have the upper hand, especially today.

The above is taken from the book: ‘Drink from the Cup’ by J.M.R. Larman.

***

Well – how can we express Joy our Joy – it can be through singing, not sad songs of course but uplifting Songs or Hymns.  Do you know that satan does not like us to be happy or to sing or to have any sort of Joy.  So to make him move away from us we need to start rejoicing in our God, even to just thank Him for our Blessings, which when we begin to think of it are many.  We must have that perserverance like the Bible says to walk in Faith however small our Faith is – it is better than having none.

Remember the weakest Christian on his knees is enough to make the devil tremble.

So give it a go some time and don’t be robbed of your Joy.

*****

* I Pray that you have some sort of pure joy today *

* God Bless You *
