This week, …

Your keyword is “JOY”

Your key message is “Joy to the world!”

Your key scripture is Nehemiah 8:10b “Do not sorrow, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.”

During a Breakthrough Life Coaching call in late November, I was prompted to choose “JOY” as the keyword for Dec 12. Then on Dec 1 while our TeamDestiny777 Master’s Mind team was praying intensely for miraculous healing for one of teammates, someone prayed specifically for JOY for that person.

That prompted me to do a Bible search retrieving scriptures related to JOY and Rejoice.

In God’s presence is fullness of JOY (Psalm 16:11). When you become addicted to God, you will spend hours before God. The last thing the devil wants to see is God’s children immersed in, saturated in the glory of God. The purpose of a visitation (from God) is for it to become a habitation. (Source = Baptism in Glory – Part 1 by Apostle Thomas)

Why don’t people obey God? Because they don’t know him. Knowledge of God leads to trust in God. Trust in God leads to obedience to God. Obedience to God leads to blessings by God.

3 things that move the mighty hand of God

1. Your cry
2. Your hunger – Matt 5:6 – Blessed are those who thirst and hunger for righteousness
3. Your faith – Heb 11:1 – Without faith you cannot please Him. What is faith? Believing whatever God says He will do.

If you can hear the voice of God, 99% of your problems are solved. Whatever He tells you, don’t question it, don’t try to figure it out. When God tells you He is going to do something, it’s already done.

Last Christmas, our daughter gave my wife and me a five pound chocolate lab puppy as a surprise gift. Maui (our dog) has turned out to be a tremendous blessing. She brings great JOY, making us laugh and play every day. Why is a dog often referred to as man’s best friend? Because a dog is very loyal and always glad (joyful) to see its owner. It’s interesting that”dog” spelled backwards is “God.”
