JOY IN THE HOLY GHOST 1 “My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations.” (James 1:2)
There is joy and there is joy in the Holy Ghost. Ordinarily, joy is a product of pleasing events. For instance, on her wedding day, a woman would still dance even if the choir refuses to sing. An inaudible song would play in her heart. The same thing applies when someone wins a new contract. I want pleasing events to happen to you everyday so that you will have joy. But way beyond that, I want you to have joy in the Holy Ghost.
Joy in the Holy Ghost is that joy that arises and is maintained supernaturally irrespective of time, place, and event. This means that even if moments that don’t provoke joy arise, you remain joyful all the same. Your joy does not fluctuate in response to external stimuli. You maintain your joyful state of mind even in the midst of contrary and overwhelming circumstances. A heart that is able to harbour and express joy even in the absence of a reason to do so is filled with the Holy Ghost.
This type of joy is one of the spices on your sacrifice that God demands. It is spiritual. It is called joy unspeakable. It is indescribable. When you enter into temptation, the Bible says you should rejoice. It means the time of temptation is when to express joy in the Holy Ghost. Naturally, you won’t feel like being happy at such times, but God says that is the best time to rejoice.
God is taking you to the level of joy that goes beyond what ordinary senses can comprehend. The joy of the Holy Ghost will fill your heart today. and it will rob off on everyone around you.
Word of Wisdom: When your joy does not fluctuate in response to external stimuli, you have stopped to be a spiritual baby.
Prayer/Confession: Holy Ghost, fill my heart with your joy, and let everyone around me see it in me and partake of it.
Further Reading: 1 Pet. 1:8

                         YOU DO NOT BECOME A SAINT BECAUSE OF WORKS Many times believers have called those who teach the truth about benefits of Christ death, burial and resurrection as those who teach the diluted Gospel but in actuality, they are those teaching the undiluted Gospel. The Gospel is not the mind of men. It does not have to appear pleasing to any man’s hearing to be the truth. Christ came into this world to take away the sin of the world. And he did it by offering His body for sin to die in the flesh. John 1: 29 ¶ The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD, WHICH TAKETH AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD. GAL 1: 4 WHO GAVE HIMSELF FOR OUR SINS, THAT HE MIGHT DELIVER US FROM THIS PRESENT EVIL WORLD, ACCORDING TO THE WILL OF GOD AND OUR FATHER. HEB 2: 17 WHEREFORE IN ALL THINGS IT BEHOVED HIM TO BE MADE LIKE UNTO HIS BRE...

GOD IS THE FATHER OF SPIRITS MAN IS THE FATHER OF FLESH Heb 12:9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather BE IN SUBJECTION UNTO THE FATHER OF SPIRITS, AND LIVE? In the Old Testament, God was not known as a father. He was only a circumstantial God with diverse names based on the situation he created to reveal Himself to a particular person at a particular time. Consequently, many have seen God manifest in their lives in a particular situation at a particular time that made them give   God names according to the situation H created for the revelation. These names are as follows. Jehovah shama, Jehovah Nissi,Jehovah Elohim, Jehovah Adonai etc. God was not known as a father in the Old Testament because God can only beget spirit born by the incorruptible word. 1PE 1:23 BEING BORN AGAIN, NOT OF CORRUPTIBLE SEED, BUT OF INCORRUPTIBLE, BY THE WORD OF GOD, WHICH LIVETH AND ABIDETH FOR EVER . Abrah...

ON THE CROSS On the cross both sin and man died but Christ did not die. He was made sin for the body of sin to die in man and not in God. As God He cannot die, But as man He took on the body of sin on the cross for sin to die through his death. Roman 6: 6 knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed,( NOT THE BODY OF CHRIST ) that henceforth we should not serve sin.( 2Cor 5: 21) FOR HE HATH MADE HIM TO BE SIN FOR US, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him  On the cross man died with Christ for sins that man would be dead to sin and free from sin. Ro 6:8 Now IF WE BE DEAD WITH CHRIST, we believe that we shall also live with him: 2Tim2: 11 It is a faithful saying: FOR IF WE BE DEAD WITH HIM, we shall also live with him: Rom 6:7 For he that is dead is freed from sin  Because man died with Christ man became dead to sin. Rom 6:2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer ...
