Jump for Joy

Word for July 17th, 2022

Jump for Joy! I call you to jump for Joy, but it's not the kind of joy that you think of when you just get up and you are physically jumping and being joyous. You can be doing that as an expression of true Joy, but true Joy is so much deeper, for it is the Joy that is growing in you as you abide in Jesus. That Joy stirs in you because you know where you're headed. You know that there is a goal set before you. A crown set before you. There is a race that I've called you to. So when you know the Joy that you will receive at the end of that race, then the Joy, that Joy resides in you right now, for I've placed it there. So as you focus on that and as you grow in the Joy, you will be able to experience that Joy no matter what the circumstances because you're looking towards to the end, the finish line.
