JOY

 Out of love of God comes out joy — any other joy produced other than the Triune God is short-lived and is not joy at all. For example, the joy that comes after watching a movie is short-lived and that is not the joy we are talking about. When Jesus said in John 17:13, “…they may have the full measure of my joy within them.”

This teaches us joy is within us denoting the spiritual joy is deposited inside us. Joy is a spiritual substance. The world laughs when everything is going well with them. But a believer has joy even in the most difficult situation because this joy is inside them and we can use it whenever we want to use it. The Bible says in Hebrews 12:2, “…who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame…” Jesus had joy inside Him so He could use even at the time of the cross. The Bible tells us in Nehemiah 8:10, “…for the joy of the Lord is your strength” and if we lose our joy, our strength is gone. So, we should be careful to guard our joy in every situation in our life for if our joy remains with us we will be ever victorious but if we lose our joy, the enemy might defeat us and that’s what we learn from the Triune God.


Jesus Christ never lost His joy even at the point of death on the cross — there He could endure death and conquer it. (Hebrews 1:9 says “…therefore God, your God has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy.”) Now, this verse talks of Jesus, when He was in the flesh He took the sins of the whole world which was very difficult for Him but the Godhead placed Him above His companions by anointing Him with the oil of joy in the spiritual and the physical realm. How? By anointing Him with the oil of Joy. Jesus could smell victory through the joy, which was in and upon Him. In the same manner, if you do not lose your joy in every situation, you will be placed above every situation and smell victory before it happens.

परमेश्वर मेरा प्रथम स्थान

                                भजन संहिता   १३९:१ हे यहोवा, तू ने मुझे जाँचकर जान लिया है। हे परमेश्वर, तूने मुझे जाँचकर जान लिया है इस अध्याय के, शुरुआत में भजनकार यह कहता है कि “ हे परमेश्वर, तूने मुझे जाँचकर जान लिया है,अर्थात परमेश्वर एक व्यक्ति को जाँचने के बाद ही जान लेता है’’|अब यहाँ पर सवाल यह उठता है कि परमेश्वर ऐसा क्यों करते है | जी हाँ, इस सवाल का जवाब काफी सरल है परमेश्वर एक व्यक्ति को इसलिए परखता है क्योंकि वह यह देखना चाहता है कि उस व्यक्ति का दिल “ परमेश्वर के प्रेम के प्रति है या नहीं ’’और ख़ासकर उस व्यक्ति के जीवन में उसका “प्रथम स्थान’’ है या नहीं | आपको एक बात हमेशा याद रखनी है कि आपको अपने पति, पत्नी, बच्चे या फिर धन — संपत्ति यानि सारी चीजों से बढ़कर और सबसे ऊँचा जो प्रेम करना है, वो परमेश्वर से प्रेम करना है | जैसे दाऊद राजा को परमेश्वर ने जाँच लिया था कि यह मेरे दिल के मुताबिक व्यक्ति है | परमेश्वर ने वाचा के अनुसार अब्राहम को बेटा दिया; जब उसकी उम्र सौ वर्ष की थी और बाद में उस बे...

My Testimony - Apostle Winston Joseph, Ph. D

  Healed from Asthama Many years ago, I had asthma. It was a hereditary disease in my family and I witnessed one of my aunts who died because of it in a very dreadful situation. She was hanged upside down to ease her predicament. I had the same disease and there was a time in my life when I could not sit nor stand because of the illness. I could not breathe properly and sometimes I used to have excruciating pain at my back due to the that illness. Also, I had severe dust allergy, even if a little dust went into my nostrils, I would sneeze for a long time. But when I came to know that the Word is the truth and that the fact can be changed through the truth , I started to take hold of the Word and declare and decree it for days and days. Devil used to show me the fact that this disease is incurable. But I kept on declaring the truth i.e. the Word until I was totally healed and delivered from that disease. Now I know that I am born of the Spirit, walking in glory in divine health whi...

CELEBRATION OF SALVATION

  The Monthly Devotional E-magazine for December titled  "CELEBRATION OF  SALVATION"  by their Excellency, Apostle Winston Joseph and Sister Parveen Winston  is now available for all Partners of AWJM.  Many a man has been looking for salvation. They assume that they would receive salvation through some knowledgeable person or through some religious performance that is like saying that their act would take them through. Of course, we honour them those knowledgeable and wise men who have done well for the country today and are gone There are some exemplary in whose  honour we have  names of roads, flyovers, towns, railway stations, airports, colleges, universities etc. However, redemption is impossible through knowledgeable or wise men or through religious performance because to redeem men is not in the hands of men. In reality, it is only the Bible that says, ‘Every human must attain salvation’ but the question remains how? Salvation is the Preciou...
