JOY!
“But the Angle said to them, ‘Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of a GREAT JOY, which will come to all the people.” (Luke 2:10 Amplified)
Jesus is THE great joy! Even though your life might not look the way you had hoped and dreamed this Christmas, receive and be filled with the greatest Joy! And join me in praying that Angels deliver the message of great joy to your spouses, future spouses and families.
“Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, And the fields yield no food; Though the flock may be cut off from the fold; And there be no herd in the stalls --
Yet I will REJOICE in the LORD.
I WILL JOY in the God of my salvation.
The LORD God is my strength
He will make my feet like deer’s feet
And He will make me walk on my high hills.” (or high heels! ha ha!)
(Habakkuk 3:17-19 NKJV)
HE WILL! Thank you LORD!
The word for JOY is gil (geel) Stronng’s #1523;
“To joy, rejoice, be glad, be joyful. Gil contains the suggestion of ‘dancing for joy,’ or ‘leaping for joy,’ since the verb originally meant ‘to spin around with intense motion.’ Although everything is wrong in Habakkuk’s external world, he is leaping for joy over his fellowship with Yahweh.”
“Do not sorrow, for the JOY of the LORD is your strength!” (Nehemiah 8:10)
Joy in Nehemiah 8:10 is Strong’s #/2304; Joy, Gladness.
On the fourth day of Christmas, I give my true love.... JOY!
Father God, we pray and declare that You are imparting to our spouse, future or current, unspeakable JOY! Be our UPS Man, and Unite us IN JOY by the Presence of Your Spirit.
- Despite their circumstances, and busyness, give them feet like deer, that they can walk on the high hills, and overcome anything pulling them into discouragement.
- We declare (from Song of Solomon 2:17) “Turn my beloved! And be like a gazelle, or a young stag, and leap over the mountain of Bether [SEPARATION.]
- Fill them with Your Holy Spirit today, so full that they cannot contain the Joy! Impart to them leaping, spin-around JOY; contagious JOY!
- And sensitize their spirits. Give them a child like spirit, expectant for Christmas morning. A spirit that will leap for joy when their spouse (future or current) walks in the room, like John the Baptist leapt in Elizabeth’s womb. (Luke 1:41)
- Lord, impart to them the Joy and Gladness in You, that will strengthen them until we are United, face to face, by the Presence of Your Spirit!
AMEN!
Expecting to be amazed ~
