Your Joy

John 16:2,24-25 – They will put you out of the synagogue; in fact, the time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God…Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete. “Though I have been speaking figuratively, a time is coming when I will no longer use this kind of language but will tell you plainly about my Father.

Matthew 7:7 – “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

John 15:11 – I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.

Application:

  • ·         Persistent prayer is being emphasized.
  • ·         The Christian way is never dreary, for Jesus desires His disciples’ joy to be complete.
  • ·         Religious people have often persecuted others in the strong conviction that they were doing God’s will.
