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

WE ARE ABLE MINISTERS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT ( 2Cor 3: 3-6)  3 Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.  4 And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:  5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God  6 ¶ Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament ; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life We should function according to our description. We should give life not condemnation

  A BELIEVER CANNOT SOWTO FLESH BUT SOW TO THE SPIRIT. Ga 6:8 FOR HE that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; BUT HE THAT SOWETH TO THE SPIRIT SHALL OF THE SPIRIT REAP LIFE EVERLASTING.   Rom 8:13 For if ye live after the flesh ( be carnal), ye shall die (be dead, death, be slain) : BUT IF YE THROUGH THE SPIRIT (OUR HUMAN SPIRIT INVIGORATED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT) DO MORTIFY ( SUBDUE) THE DEEDS(WORKS) OF THE BODY (FLESH), YE SHALL LIVE (QUICK,LIVELY) Gal 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: FOR WHATSOEVER A MAN SOWETH, THAT SHALL HE ALSO REAP.

We are not made of the seed of the flesh. Our seed is the word of God. 1 Peter 1: 23 Being born again, NOT OF CORRUPTIBLE SEED, BUT OF INCORRUPTIBLE, BY THE WORD OF GOD, WHICH LIVETH AND ABIDETH FOR EVER. This seed is in us for...

Condemnation is not  for us who are in Christ.It is our position of advantage.To be in condemnation means to be in fear.Fear of our sins of the past.Fear of the future because.Nobody is qualified to condemn us because we are not walking after the flesh.To walk after the flesh means to do the things that satisfies the cravings of  our senses.As we grow in the knowledge of Jesus Christ we become more immune against the dictates of our sense organs.To BE LEAD BY THE SENSES IS TO WALK AFTER THE FLESH. . Romans 8:8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. To be in the flesh is to be lead by our senses.It means being controlled...
