  5. Matthew 13:44 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.” There is great joy in obtaining citizenship in the Kingdom of God

  6. Acts 13:52 “And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.” Joy is not dependent upon outward circumstances. It exists for the Christian despite opposition and trial.

  8. Proverbs 14:13 “Even in laughter the heart may sorrow, And the end of mirth may be grief.” External happiness or joy, that dependent upon outward circumstances, is fleeting.

  9. Job 20:4-5 “Do you not know this of old, Since man was placed on earth, {5} That the triumphing of the wicked is short, And the joy of the hypocrite is but for a moment?” This statement from Zophar is true… Ecclesiastes speaks of the “Vanity” of life lived “under the sun”

  11. Luke 10:17-20 “Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, ‘Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.’ {18} And He said to them, ‘I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. {19} Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. {20} Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.’”

  12. How About You? Do you have a reason to TRULY REJOICE? “Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory, 9 receiving the end of your faith; the salvation of your souls.” (1 Peter 1:8b-9)
