Joy in Our Spirit 9/17 Tuesday Truth

LEP'S FAITH QUOTES: Joy in Our Spirit 9/17 Tuesday One day I saw that the secret of Christianity, the secret of evangelism, was that we were to have joy in our spirits. You remember Acts 13:52, "And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit." I Peter 1:8 tells us that it is joy unspeakable and full of glory. That didn't mean much to me until the Spirit unveiled it to me. Then I saw the secret of this new thing that was to come with the New Creation. "My joy I give unto you." This is something indescribable that fills our spirits. What does joy grow out of? What is the secret? I Corinthians 1:9, "God is faithful, through whom ye were called into the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord." Fellowship is the secret, it is the thing that gives joy. When the fellowship is broken, the joy dies. -- E. W. Kenyon
