(and the joy of the hypocrite)

The joy of the lord is my strength has always been used with the one person in mind and that one (you guessed it) is you! The old devil, that serpent of old has had a hay day with quotes like this and many more.
  • What about the New Covenant Scriptures, the two commands........ ......(click here right now) to get full understanding of what I am aiming at here.

    Today I really want to touch on the scripture of the prophet Isaiah...
BEHOLD, GOD IS MY SALVATION
I WILL TRUST AND NOT BE AFRAID
FOR........YAH.......THE LORD
IS MY STRENGTH AND MY SONG
HE ALSO HAS BECOME MY SALVATION.
                            ...............ISAIAH 12:2.
It always comes to mind each time I hear a minister teach on joy or the joy of the lord they nearly every time if not all of the time make it extremely clear that joy itself is somehow our strength. When the truth is, it's not. The joy of the lord is our strength!

What exactly does that mean?....it means this:
  • BECAUSE I KNOW JESUS PERSONALLY AND BECAUSE I DO WHAT HE SAYS I AM AUTOMATICALLY, INSTANTANEOUSLY STRONG AND HEAVENLY HAPPY.......

    HEAVENLY HAPPY IS ANOTHER WORD FOR BLESSED....IT'S JOY UNABLE TO BE SPOKEN ABOUT IN ANY EARTHLY LANGUAGE.
Hence for so called ministers to teach people that having fun or enjoying one's life daily is what satan doesn't want and Jesus does is but a foolish philosophy conjured up by mere human brain power and not from holy ghost.
  • Just a teaching that leads peoples around a never ending mulberry bush in the imagination of the mind, never able to deliver anyone from the misery of not carrying a cross, not following messiah or not departing from sin........Titus 2:14, John 12:24.
The triumphing of the wicked is short and the joy of the hypocrite is but for a moment.....do you not know this?...................
