Maintain Your Joy - Pastor Ekpenyong

Acts 20:24amp

But none of these things move me, nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

It is important you reach your divine destination in life. However, it is equally important you reach your destination with joy.

Stir up your joy for it is your strength when things aren't going as you thought.

I saw an anonymous quote: "a truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery while on a detour."

Nehemiah said, "Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD is your strength."

Sing and make melody in your heart unto the LORD that you have been counted worthy of His calling and partnership.

God has prepared a plan for your life, let this hope burst forth within you, releasing a continual joy. Don’t give up in a time of trouble, rather commune with Him at all times.

Days of preparation are never lost time. There may be important lessons or truths that you still need to learn in order to successfully fulfill God’s plan for you. And it takes time to prepare and establish yourself in God’s Word.

So ensure that nothing tampers with your joy as you birth the desires of the Father for you. 

Glory!
