Daily Bread - JAN/05/08

Acts 13:52 - And the disciples were filled with joy and the Holy Spirit.


When the gospel was preached in the days of the apostles the fruit of the Holy Spirit was always present being manifested in joy unspeakable (Acts 8:8; Romans 14:16; Galatians 5:22; John 15:11; 16:24; 1 John 1:4; 2 John 12; 1 Thessalonians 1:6; Acts 2:28; 1 Peter 1:8). The joy that the Holy Spirit desires to produce in our lives is an ecstatic joy, an overwhelming pleasure of pure happiness produced by being in the presence of the Almighty God (Psalms 16:11; 36:8; 21:5-6).

Be blessed,

Pastor Mark Spitsbergen
