NOTES:

BE HAPPY ANYWAY: THREE KEYS TO HAPPINESS

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NKJV)
16  Rejoice always, 17  pray without ceasing, 18  in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

KEY 1: JOY : “REJOICE ALWAYS”

HOW CAN WE BE HAPPY IN A WORLD THAT CONSTANTLY TELLS US TO BE UNHAPPY?

2020 THE MOST NEGATIVE YEAR IN MY LIFETIME.

FEAR, DOUBT, WORRY, COVID, POLITICS, DECLINING HEALTH…

“BE HAPPY ANYWAY”. CHOOSE JOY

JOY V. HAPPINESS

JOY DEFINED: HAPPINESS THAT COMES FROM BEING AWARE OF GOD’S BLESSINGS

JOY IS A FRUIT OF SPIRIT: (GAL 5:22 )

1. CHARACTER OF CHRIST DEVELOPED IN YOU BY THE WORK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

2. INDEPENDENT OF YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES

“IF ONLY ____, I’D BE HAPPY

STOP LOOKING TO THE WORLD TO MEET OUR NEEDS.

3. YOURS FOR THE CHOOSING.

HOW-TO:

*CHOOSE TO BE JOYFUL. IT’S GUARANTEED BY YOUR FREE WILL

*DEVELOP THE SKILL. PRACTICE JOY

*GUARD YOUR HEART. DON’T LET NEGATIVITY IN THROUGH YOUR EYES AND EARS. TURN YOUR DEVICES OFF.

 

Romans 12:2 (NKJV)
2  And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

 

WIN THE BATTLE FOR YOUR MIND

BE HAPPY ANYWAY
