Service Notes
Service Title: Be Joyful Always
Pastor Earnest Teaching
Philippians 4:4-8 (KJV)
How many times did He say we should rejoice?
Always!
God is not just waiting for us to say things, He knows our hearts and our future.
You cannot be at the place where God wants you to be and be frightened.
Verse 8
Meditate on these things
In a world of so many voices, God is saying this is the voice you have to listen to.
Philippians 4:4 (MSG)
The expression of joy is the celebration of God.
Is God with you?
Yes!
Celebrate Him!
Christ comes into your life and every worry is disappeared!
Say ‘I have no worry in my life’
Anything that does not align with God’s word is fake.
So don’t go watching or listening to the news of the world because it will depress you, it will make you sad
But God wants you to be full of joy all the time.
So fill your mind with the things that are aligned with God’s word
Fill your mind with God’s goodness.
When people are declaring ‘there is no money’, don’t follow them and declare the same as though money is your life.
Think only on the things that are true, noble, beautiful and praise worthy.
See beauty in your life and in the lives of people.
When you do, it will be fueling your joy
Once you are born again, the fruit that you bear is joy
Shout glory to God!
It doesn’t matter what happened rejoice!
It is our season of joy, praise and thanksgiving
Allow everything about you to be full of joy
Allow your home to be full of joy
No matter how sad anyone is, bring the atmosphere of joy because joy is a fruit of the Spirit
You are a carrier of miracles and so when you come and people are sad, you pluck out the sadness and plant into them joy!
You don’t struggle to be joyful because it is your fruit.
Joy is not something we struggle to be because it is a fruit of the Spirit
That is why God said Be joyful
He didn’t say struggle to be joyful.
John 16:23-27 (NKJV)
Understand that God is with you all the time
So when anything occurs just know that you have a high power to talk to
Just talk to Him, discuss with Him
It is a joy to know that God hears me all the time
And that is more than enough for me to be joyful
If you know that you will receive before you pray, you will be joyful.
And so when you see people pray and carry an aura of sadness it means they don’t believe that He will answer
There is nothing that you will ask God that He will not give you because you have come to a place where your life is aligned with His will and His purpose.
Jesus said when we pray the Father will hear us because He loves us.
Love in this verse means to be fond of
The Father likes us, He likes our presence.
He doesn’t love us from a distance
When my name is mentioned God is always excited!
This is the joy of fellowship!
Our Father loves us
He is fond of us and likes our presence
Enjoy that fellowship with the Father
There are some people who are enjoying that fellowship
They are so excited to discuss the little things with God
And so by the time they are discussing the big things with God, they are not looking at impossibilities because they know God is fond of them and loves them.
Say ‘God is fond of me!’
1 John 1:1-3 (NKJV)
There is fulness of joy when we have fellowship with the Father
Your continuous fellowship with the Father will ensure that you are full of joy always
Say ‘I am full of joy’
