Hold on Tightly to your JOY!

Have you ever had something stolen from you?  Or have you known someone who was robbed? What do we naturally do when this happens? We equip our houses with the best security systems out there to be proactive to prevent the thief from another break in. If our smart phone is stolen we buy apps like “find my phone” to protect us from identity theft with all of our sensitive data on it from being taken from us. We buy Internet security software to protect our identity. 

   We need to do the same for our hearts. Joy is needed and is the sustaining key to everything you will go through. Without Joy we lose strength…

”The joy of the Lord is our strength”. If the enemy can rob our strength, he robs our joy, then we become weak. Weak physically, mentally, emotionally which results in a weak spiritual life. We need to take hold of the ownership we have been given, it's ours but we need to remember these things in order to keep what is ours. "You can't expect a change unless you take action...praying and reading God's word will help you have peace, direction and joy. We have a responsibility to move and seek out what will work in our lives. Standing still where we are won't change situations you are stuck in. Keep moving forward." (He will be there to guide your steps)

What to do if your JOY is stolen

A. Joy is a gift and can be accessed at all times - it's not based on what circumstances you are facing - Psalm 98:4 "Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth, burst into songs of praise'

B. Joy can be given 

Psalm 45:7 "God has anointed you with the oil of joy above your companions" 

C. If it’s stolen from you, it won’t walk back to you, you must SEEK it.

Jeremiah 29:13 "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."
