Impartation of Joy - February 22, 2024

 

Morning by Morning, February 22 - Impartation of Joy

 

Good morning, Lord Jesus. Fill my heart with Your light and my mouth with Your words. ...

 

“The joy of the Lord is (my) strength” (Nehemiah 8:10).

I’m amazed what a difference joy makes. People are drawn to it. People are hungry for it. Sometimes they don’t even know how much they need it until they see it.

 

And joy is transferrable. It’s contagious!

 

This is my third and last week of ministry in India. And among all the things I’ve seen You do -- moving in the power of the Holy Spirit and the love of God to save souls, heal hearts, break chains, awaken revival -- seeing faces light up with joy, seeing sad eyes start to sparkle with delight, seeing the joy of the Lord ignite a healing from the inside out in so many hearts -- has been one my greatest joys! Because it’s all a manifestation of Your joy!

 

In the middle of my journeys, I joined a couple from my home base church and weekly course on inner healing in Fredericksburg, Texas--Allen and Molly Nance--who were visiting the Children’s Home north of Hyderabad they have sponsored for years. One morning we were blessing the children on their way to school with a snack for the day, as we took them by the hands. But first they needed to recite their memory verse for the day -- “The joy of the Lord is (my) strength!”

 

As soon as they said the words of Your Word, their faces lit up with joy! Then they ran off into their day. Joy was imparted! Joy was ignited! And they carried that joy -- Your joy -- everywhere they went and to everyone they met.

 

Fill me with more joy today, Lord. It’s part of our inheritance as children of God, part of our inheritance in the kingdom of God. “For the kingdom of God is ... righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit!” (Romans 14:17) In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.


Be encouraged today. In the love of Jesus, Tommy Hays
