Enjoy Each Day Of This New Year (2)
"I have told you these things, that My joy and delight may be in you." John 15:11 AMPC
You need to enjoy each day of your life for Christ's sake, because He paid a very high price for you to be able to. He said, "I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows)" (John 10:10 AMPC). He said, "I have told you these things, that My joy and delight may be in you, and that your joy and gladness may be of full measure and complete and overflowing" (John 15:11 AMPC). He said, "Ask and keep on asking, and you will receive, so that your joy (gladness, delight) may be full and complete" (John 16:24 AMPC). Jesus actually prayed that you would have joy: "Now I am coming to You...so that My joy may be full and complete and perfect in them [that they may experience My delight fulfilled in them, that My enjoyment may be perfect in their own souls, that they may have My gladness within them, filling their hearts]" (John 17:13 AMPC). With Jesus Himself praying such powerful words about His desire for you to have joy, how could you ever doubt that God wants you to be happy and enjoy your life? As a redeemed child of God, you're a walking billboard for Christianity! Don't go around looking severe, stern, strict, sour, and sensorial, believing that you're coming across as "spiritual." No, that's a turnoff to non-Christians! You need a new mindset; a scriptural one that will enable you to enjoy life and make you a more enjoyable person to be around.
