Being Joyful is a Personal Decision.
~Pastor Gideon Alagi

ENGAGING THE POWER OF JOY AND REJOICING
Understand that been joyful is a personal decision. Its is one thing to be offended but it takes your decision to be Joyful or Angry. But why do you need to be joyful? Because it is only through Joy and Rejoicing you can command divine intervention and receive your turnaround story.
Understand also that with joy we access Gods presence which is our external guarantee to winning the battles of life. The Bible says "enter his presence with Joy" and when you enter with joy, you leave with rejoicing because Psalm 24 will be your portion.
Being moody or depressed drys up your blessing. The withering of your joy is the withering of your blessing, just as they say in our local language "na u they do yourself"
Joy and Rejoicing secure a fulfill life. There is nothing big enough to steal your joy, you might be saying Pastor is because you don't know my situation, well it doesn't matter what the situation is but is what God says about the situation "Rejoice Always" that is what matters. Look at the situation in the face and laugh at it, the Bible says "Tho darkness may last for a night but Joy comes in the morning"
One of the Way to stay Joyful is to avoid Comparism 2Corinthians 10:12. Everybody has his own race to run, life are in phases and men are in sizes.
