HEAVENLY JOY

Our Heavenly Father gives joy to those who love and serve Him even amid sorrow, pain, and disappointments. When all seems dark and you do not know what to do or what next, you can still experience the joy of the Holy Spirit. This holy and pure joy lies within you since you belong to Christ. For Christ in you is the hope of glory. It can be a sudden release of joy in abundance from within like cascading water in a river. It continuously flows unhindered in the lives of every believer, we only need to receive it.

This could be an occasional breakout of joy from within our hearts and bellies or just a release from above by our Loving Heavenly Abba Father to comfort and soothe the wounds in our hearts. He loves to revive, renew, refresh, and restore our lives for greater glory and untold Blessings.

When this happens, do not hold back, it could be a kairos moment when a new day is born and situations turn around that thrust you into a better future. It could be a season of breakthrough from the hard times you have been going through. You should never take these encounters for granted.

Immediately, step into this realm of glory in Awe, Adoration, and worship. Give Him praise and thanksgiving. Just begin to rejoice in your spirit, which will open more doors to realms of the Spirit with operations in the gifts of the Spirit as word of prophecy, revelational knowledge, and open visions. Rejoice exceedingly, shout, dance, twirl, and praise God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. A breakthrough may have just happened in the realm of the Spirit unknown to you but to God who knows all things. A battle may have just been fought and won on your behalf. Your sensitivity in the Spirit through breaking out in joy and praise will seal satan’s doom and his yokes broken off you and your loved ones you have interceded for. Many years of evil dream attacks and midnight warfare have just ceased. The effect is freedom from evil influences and deliverance from demonic oppression and victory long-desired. It is a fulfilled expectation.

Can a nation be born in a day? Or shall the earth cause to bring forth in a day? - Isaiah 66:8

God can supernaturally intervene in our lives to change situations and circumstances as an answer to the cries of His children to see them walk in His plans and purposes. This is triumphant Praise as you celebrate your victory before the manifestation. God is worthy of our praise!

My Testimony of a Heavenly encounter with our Blessed Lord and Savior on

August 13, 2024 will elucidate this message.

On that glorious unforgettable day, I was just in my office as usual in Communion with The Lord, and interceding in tongues of the Holy Spirit. Later I started writing a message, referencing Bible verses that came to mind. Suddenly, I felt a sense of warmth, a refreshing presence of the Lord, and a sweetness within and around me. The atmosphere was changed, filled with His glorious presence. Simultaneously, joy was welling from my inmost being (belly and heart). I felt a bubble of flowing water from within that is unstoppable. Yes! The scriptures say “Out of my belly shall flow rivers of living water.” “I am filled with a wonderful and heavenly joy that cannot be explained.”

This joy flowing from within me was so overwhelming that I could not help but stand and reverence Him alone Who is worthy of Praise. It is just like Heaven came down to earth or rather, being carried in a cloud of Glory before Him face to face. God indeed filled the room with His glorious presence and filled my heart with the sweet, sweet presence of the Blessed Holy Spirit. Sweet Holy Spirit!

I broke out with joy and rejoicing as I stood to bless the Lord, the invisible and Holy ONE of Israel. My heart was filled with joy unspeakable and full of glory. (1 Peter 1:8) I took my tambourine and started Praising and dancing before THE THREE IN ONE. THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT! HALLELUJAH! Amen!
