Joy is knowing we will be part of the New Jerusalem that our LORD Jesus GOD has planned and prepared for us for Eternity!
*
Revelation 22:2-4, "I saw the Holy city, the New Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from GOD...And I heard a loud shout from the throne saying, 'Now the dwelling of GOD is with men and He will live with them. They will be His people and GOD Himself will be their GOD. There will be no more death, mourning, or pain, for the old order of things has passed away!" The pure joy of seeing our GOD face to face will be as if we were always with Him!
*
Titus 3:5-7, "The Holy Spirit poured out through Jesus Christ our Savior, having been justified by His grace, we may become heirs in the hope (joy) of Eternal Life."
*
James 1:12, "Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because he has withstood the test, he will receive the crown of life (eternal) that GOD has promised to those who love Him!" What joy awaits those who love our Almighty LORD GOD!
*
2 Timothy 2:10, "Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Jesus Christ, with eternal glory!" Again, what joy for the elect!
*
1 John 2:17, "The world and its desires will pass away, but the man (woman) who does the will of GOD lives forever!" Joyful, joyful we adore Thee!
*
So what is joy? See my next blog!
