JOY

In the Morning

The devil isn't after your job, he's after your JOY, said one profound evangelist.

Who came 'That Your Joy May Be Complete?"
JOY. What is it? It is that profound deep sense of wholeness, completion, satisfaction, happiness, all rolled into one. The feeling you are where you are supposed to be and it feels deep down gut good. You know it when you have it, you long for it when it is missing. Stolen Joy. Worse than stolen jewels.
If the devil can steal your Joy he has you where he wants you. If the devil can start you cursing your existence, or worse, cursing the Holy Spirit (once called the 'unforgiveable sin') then
he can steal your soul without your noticing.
What was Job's situation? He lost everything and was a point where even his wife was saying "just curse God and die moron" basically. His wife cursed him and told him to curse God. Can there be a more Joy-less place in one's psyche? The devil was trying to get Job to curse God-that 'unforgiveable sin.' But he wouldn't - the devil didn't win and when he figured out he could not win, he fled. And Job sent him packing refusing to curse God and instead devoting himself to praying for his taunting friends.

When the devil is trying to steal your stuff and steal your Joy, send him packing by praying for your friends. Hard. And refuse to curse God. Even when it looks pretty hopeless out there.
The more you pray , the more the Devil Flees. Like a candle chasing out the darkness when lit.

JOY to the World. The SAVIOR has come. Let Earth Receive Their King.
Let Every Heart, Prepare Him Room
And HEAVEN and NATURE SING.
