UNSPEAKABLE JOY

1 Peter 1:8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: (KJV)

The Christian life is a life of joy; an unspeakable joy. But not every Christian experience this joy in their life even though it's meant to be experienced. There is the love walk and faith walk which triggers this joy.

The Bible says "Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: -1 Peter 1:8. Joy unspeakable results from your expression of love for the Lord, and your walk of faith in His Word.

There are Christians who talk about the Love of the Lord for them, and also profess in words their love for Him but their actions don't portray it. There is a dimension of joy you can only experience if you express your love for the Lord in action and walk in His word, that joy is unspeakable and full of glory. 

When things happen in your favour, when things are going well for you it is easy to be happy but unspeakable joy transcends that, it is the glow of the Spirit working through you which fills you with joy and glory. This joy and glory causes things to happen in your favour and subject circumstances to your good. 

God wants this kind of joy for you. He wants it to be your daily experience and expression. You get yourself into it by loving; giving yourself and possesions for His work, and walking in His word. Hallelujah!

PRAYER 

Thank You Holy Spirit for helping me to love the Lord and to believe in Him though I have not seen Him, by which I am filled with joy unspeakable and full of glory, affecting and effecting my life to be effective for the Kingdom in Jesus' Name. Amen.
