Text: Romans 14:16-17, Romans 15:13, and others.
What is joy? It is not happiness, which comes from the outside in. Joy comes from the inside out and is not dependent on our circumstances. God's joy is from Him to our spirit. He desires that our joy may be full (John 15:11).
Most of the time joy is mentioned in the New Testament is during trials. Acts 13:49-52 talks about how they were filled with the Holy Spirit and joy.
There are 4 parts to joy:
The Source - God
The Path - The Holy Spirit
The Reservoir - Us
The Function - Actions based on joy rather than on fear.
