Today's Scripture<br />
“You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your<br />
right hand there are pleasures forever.”<br />
Psalm 16:11<br />
JOY IN HIS PRESENCE<br />
There is something always missing in the lives of so many of God's children,<br />
and it is called JOY. God's desire is that we would experience fullness of joy,<br />
and rivers of pleasure.<br />
In God's Presence there is Protection, Provisions and also His Promises. You<br />
cannot enjoy these things fully without being in the Presence of God. When<br />
you have Gods presence with you, you need nothing more, and you should not<br />
settle for anything lesser. The presence of God is the most real thing you ever<br />
encounter. You go from strength to strength when you learn to stay in the<br />
presence of God all the time, not only when you are in need but at any given<br />
breath.<br />
Joy is a fruit of the Holy Spirit in your life that does not depend on your<br />
circumstances. It doesn t matter how dark it gets, it doesn t matter what<br />
negative things happen to you. If you have the joy of the Lord that doesn t come<br />
from any outside source, but the presence of the Living God, nothing can take<br />
it away from you. That s the kind of joy I am talking about!<br />
When you stay in God's presence the fruit of your lip are praise, thanksgiving,<br />
adoration, worship, and gratitude. Doubts are gone, fears are gone, unsettled<br />
questions are gone. They do not exist in the holy place. He will not withhold no<br />
good thing to those who dwell in His presence, He carries them from strength<br />
to strength in His presence and they will be forever singing praises in the His<br />
presence.<br />
In the presence of the Lord where there s fullness of joy. Jesus said, Your<br />
heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you. (John 16:22). God's<br />
joy gives you strength and empowers you to walk through any dif culty<br />
you may be facing.<br />
Prayer<br />
For The Day<br />
Dear Lord, I thank you<br />
for reminding me one<br />
more time about the<br />
importance of staying in<br />
your presence. Thank<br />
you for all the provisions,<br />
protection and the<br />
promises awaiting me in<br />
your presence. I ask Lord<br />
that in time of dif cult<br />
trials in my life I will still<br />
remain in your presence<br />
to enable me maintain<br />
my joy. Pour out your joy<br />
on me today and always.<br />
In the mighty name of<br />
Jesus! Amen.<br />
