But we don't come to a God 44 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 4: like that. 45 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 5: We come to a good God who's already told us 46 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 5: that he loves us with an everlasting love, that he 47 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 5: redeemed us for his good pleasure. 48 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 4: He is pleased with you today. He loves you. 49 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 5: He gave you his very best, and that is something 50 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 5: to celebrate. That's something to remind ourself of, to stir 51 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 5: up every single day of our life, because life doesn't 52 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 5: remind us of that. Life tries to tell us something 53 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 5: totally different. It tries to show us difficulties, heartaches, hardships. 54 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 4: But Jesus is saying, I've given you my joy. I've 55 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 4: given you what you need. 56 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 5: To defeat the power of the enemy and stay strong 57 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 5: in this life. Amen, You've got what it takes to 58 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 5: say stand strong in the Lord Jesus Christ. And that's 59 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 5: what I want to talk a little bit about today. 60 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 5: I want to talk about stay strong in God through joy. 61 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 5: The Bible says that the joy of the Lord is 62 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 5: our strength. That's what Neemiah told the people who were downcast. 63 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 5: He said, go eat, celebrate. The joy of the Lord 64 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 5: is your strength. 65 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 4: It is what is going to sustain you. 66 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 5: It's gonna fight off anxiety, it's gonna help balance your life. 67 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 5: And Jesus said, the joy that he had, he gave 68 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 5: it to us. He said, my joy I give to you, 69 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 5: and I give it to the full Now, the joy 70 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 5: that Jesus gave us is not dependent on what is 71 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 5: going on around us. See, the joy that Jesus gave 72 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 5: us is on the inside of us. You see, God 73 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 5: does his work on the. 74 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 4: Inside of us. 75 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 5: When you said yes to Jesus Christ, the outside didn't 76 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 5: immediately change, but the inside did. 77 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 4: You See he put seeds on the inside of you. 78 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 5: He gave you a new heart, a new start, the 79 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 5: ability to take what He's put on the inside of 80 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 5: you and make it come out of you. See, God's 81 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 5: blessings start on the inside, but they show up on 82 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 5: the outside. 83 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 4: You See. 84 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 5: I have a lemon tree, and when I got it 85 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 5: and planted it, it had no lemons on it. It 86 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 5: was a lemon tree, but it had no lemons. But 87 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 5: I took care of it. I watered it, I fed it, 88 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 5: I made sure that it was you know, within the 89 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 5: right soil. I did everything I could to cultivate and 90 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 5: develop the lemons. And sure enough, that lemon tree that 91 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 5: had no lemons on the outside produced them from the inside. 92 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 5: So my lemon tree now has fruit that I can 93 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 5: eat from. And do you know That's how joy works. 94 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 5: Joy is inside of us. But we must cultivate it. 95 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 5: We must tap into it because there is fruit in 96 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 5: there that we have to eat from if we are 97 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 5: going to overcome the. 98 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 4: Trials of life. 99 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 5: You see, you may be in a trial, you may 100 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 5: be in a difficulty, you may have lost a loved one, 101 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 5: you may have a child who is wayward or far off, 102 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 5: and you feel sorrow. But do you know on the 103 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 5: other side of that sorrow, parallel with that is joy. 104 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 5: It's the fruit of joy that you can eat from, 105 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 5: and it causes you to be strong, and it causes 106 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 5: you to stand firm, and it causes you to overcome. 107 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 4: And that's what joy is so important. 108 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 5: In fact, the Israelites, when God brought them out of 109 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 5: captivity from the oppression of the Pharaoh, it says in 110 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:14,359 Speaker 5: scripture that he brought them out with joy and led 111 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 5: them forth in peace. You see, I believe what he 112 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 5: was showing us was, if you're gonna come out of 113 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 5: these dark places, if you're gonna stand under the trials 114 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 5: of life, you're gonna have to come out with joy. 115 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 5: You're gonna have to use the joy to get you 116 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 5: out of captivity, to get you out of those anxious thoughts, 117 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,039 Speaker 5: to get you out of that defeat and discouragement. 118 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 4: Joy is the key of coming out. Joy is your 119 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 4: key and it's inside of you. 120 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 5: But it's like anything else, you have to tap into it, 121 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 5: you have to develop it, you have to use it. 122 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 5: The Bible says, in this world, you're gonna have troubles. 123 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 5: Jesus said that he wasn't that we weren't gonna have troubles. 124 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 4: But you know what he said about those troubles. He says, 125 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 4: here's the key. Be of good cheer. 126 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 5: Be of good cheer, because I have overcome the world. 127 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 5: Be of good cheer, for I have overcome. 128 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 4: You know what he's saying. He's saying, Brighten up, brighten 129 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 4: your face up. 130 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 5: One scripture says, rejoice in the Lord. And again I 131 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 5: say rejoice. Rejoice means to brighten you. See there's a 132 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 5: light on the endside of you, but you've got to 133 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 5: flip it on. 134 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 4: And the key to joy is this. 135 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 5: I really believe this, because some people just seem to 136 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 5: have a different personality. They can just be more joyous, 137 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 5: where some people may be a little melancholy and they 138 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 5: have to work on this. But the truth is, in 139 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 5: a trial, we all need this joy. 140 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 4: We all need it so we must develop it. 141 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 5: Listen, I didn't take my lemon tree and put it 142 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 5: in the ground as soon as I needed lemons. I 143 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 5: put it in the ground. I cultivated it. I did 144 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 5: what it took so the lemons would come out. Then 145 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 5: I could take them, then I could use them. 146 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 4: And see, when you need. 147 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,080 Speaker 5: Joy, you can't try to cultivate it right away. You 148 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 5: have to know how to tap into it. The fruit 149 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 5: has to already be there. 150 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 4: Okay. 151 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 5: So I think every day we have to practice joy. 152 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 5: We have to laugh in the face of adversity. We 153 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 5: have to smile when there's nothing to smile about. You know, 154 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 5: I was talking to a friend of mine the other day, 155 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 5: and she's been very discouraged. 156 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 4: She's been very down. 157 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 5: She's having some difficulties with her daughter and is going 158 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 5: through a divorce. 159 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 4: And she has a young child. 160 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 5: And you know, as a mother in here, when your 161 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 5: child's not doing good, it's hard for you to do good, right, 162 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 5: I mean, you just worry, and her just get more 163 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 5: discouraged and more discouraged. And now I see her health 164 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 5: is being jeopardized. And because anxiety and stress will jeopardize 165 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 5: our physical be and so I began to talk to 166 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 5: her the other day because I thought, you know what, 167 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 5: I've just watched day after day after day. 168 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 4: You know, I just want to encourage her. 169 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 5: So she we've been friends forever, I've worked with her forever. 170 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 4: We really love each other. So she she knows me 171 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 4: pretty well. 172 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 5: But I walked in and I just started deciding that 173 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 5: I was just gonna make her laugh, you know, I 174 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,439 Speaker 5: was just gonna bring the joy up in her. 175 00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 4: And so I was like, hey, can I see your teeth? 176 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 4: She thought, what. 177 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 5: The next thing, I know, I start seeing a little 178 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 5: bit of her teeth, and I said, oh man, your 179 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 5: teeth are beautiful. Look at your smile. I haven't seen 180 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 5: you smile in a long time. And so I just 181 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,680 Speaker 5: start laughing and cracking up. And I'm being so silly 182 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 5: that she starts laughing, you know. 183 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 4: So I begin to. 184 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:08,559 Speaker 5: Just brighten her. I begin to encourage her joy. See, 185 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 5: I was simply changing the atmosphere in her mind. I 186 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 5: was simply changing that so that she would be opened 187 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 5: up to what God wants to say to her. So funny, 188 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 5: because okay, y'all, I'm gonna just admit something. Sometimes when 189 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 5: I talk to you guys, like I got this light 190 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 5: that shining in my eye. I'm trying to think of 191 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 5: what I'm supposed to say. I'm being all serious, and 192 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 5: I see sometimes when I watch myself, I'm on crew listen, 193 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 5: I'm talking, you know, and I. 194 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 4: Think, I gotta stop that. How can I stop that? 195 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 4: And I told Joel, I said, I don't mean to, because. 196 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 5: I'm such a happy person and I but I just 197 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 5: all of a sudden start frowning trying to And Joe said, oh, 198 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 5: it's gonna take you a year to stop that if 199 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 5: you start practicing right now. And I'm like, hello, mister encouragement. 200 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 5: So I read that if you put a pencil in 201 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 5: your mouth between your teeth, that it makes the sides 202 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 5: of your mouth go up. You know, there's studies that 203 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 5: say if you'll change your facial expressions, it does something 204 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,959 Speaker 5: to you emotionally. So what I've started doing was sitting 205 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,440 Speaker 5: in my computer with a pencil in my mouth so 206 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 5: I can just be smiling all the time. So I 207 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 5: thought about that, and I had took two pencils with 208 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:32,959 Speaker 5: me when I was talking to my friend and I said, 209 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 5: I said, look at this and put a pencil. 210 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 4: In my mouth and I said, look out. It makes 211 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 4: me smile. I said, here, you put this pencil in 212 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 4: your mouth. I said, I washed it. We're both standing 213 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 4: there looking at each other with pencils in our mouth. 214 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 4: What can I tell you? The atmosphere changed, The joy came, 215 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 4: the blessing came. The pall ones seem to be smaller. 216 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 4: You see. The joy was there to be her strength. 217 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 5: And I begin to tell her about the promises of 218 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 5: God and the goodness of God, the things that really 219 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,839 Speaker 5: produced that joy. And I said, you know, you're worried 220 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 5: about your child, and that's certainly understandable, but I want 221 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 5: to explain something to you that I truly believe your child, 222 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 5: your daughter, what she's going through right now. God has 223 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 5: given her the grace to go through it. God has 224 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 5: given her the grace to go through it. He hasn't 225 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 5: given you the grace that she has. He's given you 226 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 5: the grace to help her through it. But you can't 227 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 5: help her through it with a long face. You can't 228 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 5: help her through it with discouragement. God wants you to 229 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 5: stir up your joy. He wants you to bring a 230 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 5: sense of happiness and joy and elation to her life. 231 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 5: You need to elevate and push that joy up for 232 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 5: her and for yourself. Do you know when you push 233 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 5: joy up, it signals victory. It's like when a guy 234 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 5: runs and he wins the race, the first thing he 235 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 5: does is throws his hand up. 236 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 4: It's because he has victory. We need to change our 237 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 4: posture and let the joy come out in our life. 238 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 5: We need to put a pencil in our mouth if necessary, 239 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 5: because God. 240 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 4: Works through our joy. 241 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,199 Speaker 5: He brought them out with joy because he knew they 242 00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 5: needed the strength to go on. 243 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 4: They didn't even know all the things they were gonna face. 244 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 5: But if they could go out with joy, if they 245 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 5: could tap into that joy, that joy would. 246 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 4: Be there for them, would be their strength. 247 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 5: Someone encourage every one of us today to practice joy 248 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 5: every day. 249 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,719 Speaker 4: Look at what your face is saying. What is it 250 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 4: signaling to your body? In your mind, what are you 251 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 4: thinking about? 252 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 5: The Kingdom of God starts within us and it flows 253 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 5: out of us, and that's what brings the blessing. So 254 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 5: I encourage you.
