Are you tired of the "seesaw life"—the constant ups and downs that leave you dizzy and discouraged? In this powerful message, Pastor Joseph Davis shows you how to stop running on empty and tap into the power of joy—the spiritual adrenaline that will interrupt your grieving, break weariness, and keep you on track to fulfill your God-given destiny.
Joy is more than fleeting happiness; it's a profound, spiritual connection that is the key to activating your courage to grow.
Main Points of the Message
-- Resilience is Your Response to Tragedy: Growth happens when you choose to leave your comfort zone and show resilience. It's not just the ability to bounce back, but also the capacity to adapt and pivot after hardship. -- Get Off the Seesaw: Adulthood cannot sustain a life of constant ups and downs. To move forward, you must face your fears, hush the noise around you, and get in the race. -- Joy is the Remedy for Weariness: The Bible warns against being "weary in well doing" because weariness can cause you to retreat and settle for going backward. Joy, however, gives you the strength to manage trouble and get to your promise. -- Joy Intervenes in Grief: God's word to Joshua after the death of Moses was, "Get going." This illustrates that joy will interrupt your grieving and give you the courage to move even when you have to "cry and move at the same time." -- Keep Your Eyes on Jesus: Jesus endured the cross "for the joy set before him." Joy gives you the strength to put up with anything ("cross, shame, whatever") because it gives you the foresight of your exhilarating finish. -- Joy Enables Transformation: You can't successfully pursue sanctification, change, or transformation without joy. It gives you the power to "let go" of weights and parasitic sins, allowing you to celebrate your progress. -- Count It All Joy: Joy is activated when you learn how to count your troubles as an indicator that you are alive and, therefore, able to change.
