One of the best ways to keep your joy is to allow the Holy Spirit to lead you in every way every day.
If each and every morning you FIRST:
– pray (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
– seek God (Matthew 6:33; Isaiah 55:6)
– read things such as this type of insight (Phil 4:8)
It will push you FORWARD in the RIGHT direction.
God will NEVER push you aggressively but in general ways he LEADS you with love, joy, and peace.
The LORD leads with unfailing love and faithfulness… Psalm 25:10
If you notice that your peace and joy is gone you must immediately recognize that YOU or the enemy has manipulated control.
· Are you consumed with your own ideas?
· Do you have an agenda?
· Are you locked into one way of thinking?
When your mindsets are as listed above, you’re often not able to hear God speak.
If you are tuned in, you will realize that God’s promptings are often the voice of God coming through many different avenues. God rarely does anything the same way twice. Don’t assume you’ll hear from God the same way someone else does. He’ll speak to you in a way and about something that is meaningful to YOU!
Watch out today for JOY-STEALERS, those things that rob you of enjoying today with the promise of a better tomorrow which can leave you depleted and fatigued.
Let me assure you that God wants to lead and direct your life with great clarity.
Stay focused and ENJOY TODAY!
