On Sunday, my Apostle, Pete Garza released a powerful word from God about restoring the joy of our salvation. There is so much depth to that word. It doesn’t just mean to be joyful like the day we accepted Jesus, it has to do with knowing and remembering who we are as Sons and Daughters and the inheritance of the Kingdom we have been given because of what Jesus has done for us. Ask the Holy Spirit to give you a deeper understanding of this.
Here is my account of an experience that I had today that will bring a clearer understanding:
Today I had an encounter with laughter. This may stretch a lot of you who read this so I have posted scriptures that confirm what I was seeing and hearing. I was sitting next to the Father as He laughed. It was a strong, bold, joyful laugh that echoed into the atmosphere. He who sits in the heavens laughs. He said “My daughter, My laughter is like a roar in the heavens. He who has ears will hear it. In everything there is a season and a purpose. It is not the season to cry or mourn but it is the season to laugh and dance.”
In faith, I opened up my mouth and a laughter from deep within came out causing me to laugh for quite some time. As we were laughing together, the Holy Spirit was speaking to me. He said, “The enemy may come to steal, kill and destroy but I have come to give abundant life. Abundant life has conquered all. This is why we laugh in the heavenlies. No device, no plot, no plan can possibly outrank the power I give. Do you have ears to hear the roar of laughter. Will you open your mouth in faith, and allow that laughter to flow from your belly? That laughter is the power to conquer the enemy. That laughter keeps your feet planted on the Rock, immovable in any storm. That laughter causes the angelic to move on its vibrations and fight on your behalf. Laugh at your circumstances that have tried to steal your joy. Laugh at the enemy’s plan! Go ahead open your mouth and laugh with Me. Your laughter renders your enemy powerless! Your laughter trusts in the Way where there seems to be no way. Your laughter makes paths in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. Your laughter roars “I am a Daughter. I am a Son! No weapon formed against me will prosper!” Your laughter conquers all fear and doubt! Laughter is good medicine, My child. It brings healing deep into your bones. Laughter claims your victorious place of sitting next to Me in your heavenly place. He or she who sits in the heavens laughs.
“He raised us up with Christ the exalted One, and we ascended with him into the glorious perfection and authority of the heavenly realm, for we are now co-seated as one with Christ!”

And Nehemiah continued, “Go and celebrate with a feast of rich foods and sweet drinks, and share gifts of food with people who have nothing prepared. This is a sacred day before our Lord. Don’t be dejected and sad, for the joy of the Lord is your strength!””
