The Joy of the Lord

This week’s Devotional Topic
On this week’s program we will share a devotional by Dr. Charles Stanley on this topic.  God’s joy gives us the stamina we need to deal with obstacles and opposition.  But what is the joy of the Lord?  How can we experience it?
Whenever our joy is connected to the conditions of our environment, we are destined for wild fluctuations.  The joy of the Lord is independent of feelings, and like circumstances, our emotions are unreliable.  The joy of the Lord is accompanied with two familiar companions, — Peace and Hope.  The joy of the Lord is a gift from God — and our responsibility is to simply receive it and enjoy it by faith.
This week’s Scripture: Psalm 15:1-5 (NIV)
