The Secrets Of Joyful Living

I. Introduction

Story of Melissa

Here we are married on our Honeymoon, sitting on the white sandy beaches of Turks and Cacaos Islands

Fast forward: I come home from the office, all three children are crying, toys lay all over the floor. What the kids had for lunch lays all over the floor. All of a sudden that peaceful look is gone. Life comes at you fast

Ladies, you are by nature multitaskers. There are times when all that responsibility just weighs so heavy.

When this happens the enemy is ready to attack

Attack your daily walk with God

Attack your marriage

Attach your relationship with your children

One of the greatest antidotes to this is Joy. Biblical joy transcends happiness. It is not a fake smile or a denial that life is thought. Biblical joy is the reality that no matter my circumstances, I can have peace because God is in control, God is good, and God loves me no matter what.

The Key to Joyful Living is a vibrant, daily walk with God.

The goal of today’s message is to show you how to make that type of a relationship with God possible.

1. Joy Can Only Flow From God’s Restoration

2. Joy Has To Show Or It Will Quickly Disappear

3. Joy Will Only Grow If We Consistently Walk with God
