JOY, A PATHWAY TO DIVINE HEALTH
Hello, I’m Felix Harcourt, and welcome to the healing school. Praise God! Friends, protect your Joy from being attacked by your enemy, Satan. Protect your Joy, your happiness, your excitement. Be sensitive to your surroundings; watch what happens around you and in you. Friends, please be sensitive. Don’t permit any thought or person to steal your Joy. Please, don’t. I know why I’m emphasizing that you should be watchful; your enemy can not access your Life unless you allow it. And that is the truth.
The scripture says you should “Be alert, be vigilant and of sober mind: your enemy, the devil, going around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour, crushed and steal their Joy. I pray he will not see you in Jesus’ Name! in John 10. The scripture said his mission is to steal, kill, and destroy, and one of his goals is to go after your Joy because until he gets you depressed, he can’t oppress you. Satan can not oppress you until he succeeds in depressing you. I decree in the Name of Jesus that he will not oppress you. I declare you free from any of his oppression you are in now in Jesus’ Name!
Proverbs 4:23 says to keep (guard) your heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of Life. Praise God! Friends, Life flows from your heart to your entire body. How healthy your heart is is how healthy your body will be. “A healthy heart, a healthy life.” Your enemy knows that. That is why he is doing all he can to steal your Joy. Guard your heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of Life. You have to keep negative thoughts and negative people away from you. Friends, friendship is a choice. You should be the one to choose who you want to be your friend, and please choose wisely. Some negative stuff you are experiencing now is cursed by the negative people you call your friends. It is avoidable. It is what? Avoidable.
Friends, thoughts will always come, but you can decide what to think about. No one has the right to force themselves on you, and no thoughts can be forced into you except the one you permit. Friends, if you can change the source of your information, you can change your thoughts and Life. When you are sad, unhappy, and depressed, Satan, your enemy, is happy. Why? Because that is his mission. He derives fulfillment when you are sad and does everything to keep you unhappy. Friends, please be wise to identify his voice in offensive emails, text messages, and comments from people around you. He uses people. It can be your spouse or anyone you call your best friend. They are not the ones, but Satan is the one working through them; that is why we need to be sensitive to identify who is behind the action or the thought we are thinking. We have to be super wise. Christ was smart enough to recognize him in Peter and said, “Get you behind me, Satan in Matthew 16.
Friends, “Be alert and of sober mind: your enemy, the devil, going around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of Life. I see you free from depression. I see you free from sadness. I see you free from anything that has made you suffer pain in Life, in Jesus’ Name! in Joel 1:12. The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because Joy is withered away from the sons of men.
Everything about their lives is crushed. Nothing is working in their lives because their Joy has been attacked. The scripture said their lives weren’t making progress because of what? It’s because they had no Joy in themselves. That is how valuable Joy is to our entire Lives. Friends, from the scripture we read, lack of Joy can affect one’s business, health, relationship, marital Life, and everything. Name it! Joy is useful to us in Life. It enhances our productivity and improves the quality of our health. Joy! In Isaiah 12:3. With Joy, you will draw water from the wells of salvation. Praise God! Friends, this means that you can enjoy the benefit of salvation with Joy. That is, everything salvation offers, everything in the kingdom of heaven. You, being joyful, full of Joy, will be able to gain access to the supernatural. Praise God!
Friends, don’t allow the devil to keep you sad. 1 Thessalonians 5:16. says Rejoice always, and again, rejoice. Praise God! Friends, take your focus away from yourself, from what you are experiencing, and from the people who have offended you to focus on the promises of God that have been fulfilled in Christ Jesus. Believe everything the scripture says you are, irrespective of what you are experiencing and what people say about you. Don’t permit the enemy to disconnect you from the source of Life, Christ in you, your hope of glory. Praise God! John 15:5. Says, “He (Christ) is the vine; we are the branches. If we remain (abide) in Him and He in us, it says we will bear (bring) much fruit; He said apart from Him (Jesus), we can do nothing. “Nothing” Praise God! This means that as long as we keep our thoughts and believe in what the Word says we are, as long as we keep our trust in Jesus and His finished work for us, we will manifest and experience a fruitful, healthy, and fulfilling Life here on earth. Praise God! With Joy, you will draw water from the wells of salvation. Friends, if you secure your Joy. You secure your health, business, relationship, and marital Life. That is the truth. A Joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones. Proverbs 17:22. Praise God!
Friends, I will not end without giving you the opportunity to make Jesus the Lord of your Life. He is the source of Joy. He is the one that connects you to your source of Life, God the Father. You can’t be joyful when you have no relationship with God, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. There is a difference between laughter and being Joyful. Someone can laugh and not be joyful. Why? Because Joy is a fruit of the Spirit, the Spirit of God. And His Spirit comes into you when you accept Jesus into your Life. Friends, there is fulfillment when you are connected to your creator. No fish will be fulfilled when taken out from the water. No lion will be fulfilled when taken out of the forest, and no Eagle will be fulfilled when it has been caged. Friends, no human being will be fulfilled until they connect with their creator, God! And the only way to do that is by accepting the sacrificial lamp. Jesus! He is the Lord of my Life.
If you are willing and ready, please repeat these words after me. Lord Jesus, I confess my sin. I accept you into my heart to be my Lord and Savior. Thank you for Saving me in Jesus’ Name, Amen. Praise God!
Friends, don’t allow your current circumstances to redefine who God says you are. Don’t permit people’s attitude to make you sad the whole day. It’s not necessary. In Christ, your Life is more valuable than all of that. You are valuable to God. He gave up His Son, Christ Jesus, just for you. Praise God! Friends, I seriously recommend two of our messages, “The Principle of Value. And “How To Keep Focus On Christ. It will bless your Life. These two messages will teach you how to be worry-free and the benefits of focusing on God’s Word. Praise God! Friends, be joyful. Your Joy can reverse your reports.
