Joy In My Soul!

Romans 15:13 AMP
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you will abound in hope and overflow with confidence in His promises.

I am so thankful that ​no good thing will God withhold from those who walk with Him (Psalm 84:11)!!! There is a joy that rings out in the soul of those who know that God is in control (Psalm 35:9). Loving God with all our hearts, all our souls, and all our minds leaves us room to rejoice in our daily lives (Deuteronomy 6:4-6). No matter what is going on in the world around us, our hearts abound with joy when we walk confidently with God (1 John 4:4). 

If you find that you are disconnected from the joy in your soul, I invite you to immerse yourself in the word of God and reclaim your joy. Remind yourself of God's promises over your life, and that no word from God will ever fail (Luke 1:37). Get into the presence of God to overcome the distractions of this world that are competing with the joy you already have, given by God. I encourage you to precipitate the presence of God in your life with gratitude and praise. The word in Psalm 100:4 says enter into His gates with thanksgiving and into his courts with praise. Let your gratitude for God and your praising His name provoke His presence in your life. When you are in the presence of God your joy is complete and there is no struggle that can compete with that (Nehemiah 8:10). I encourage you to meditate on Luke 6:21 today and be reminded of the joyful blessedness of walking with God. 
Luke 6:21 AMP
Blessed [joyful, nourished by God’s goodness] are you who hunger now [for righteousness, actively seeking right standing with God], for you will be [completely] satisfied. Blessed [forgiven, refreshed by God’s grace] are you who weep now [over your sins and repent], for you will laugh [when the burden of sin is lifted].

Be Blessed!
