Revival Of Joy


From: Boyd Bailey Ministries

Psalm 85:6 "Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?"

Do you need a revival of joy? Maybe you are battling health issues or financial woes. The pressure has gotten the best of you. Like the crushing of grapes in the preparation of wine, your juices of joy have been depleted. The only remains are dried and parched skins. You are tapped out. You are in desperate need of a jolt of joy.


No one is immune to slipping into a joyless life. In fact there will be seasons that joy will elude us like water in the desert. We need a new infusion of joy. The revival of joy is ongoing. You can only run so long, and then you must stop and refill your joy tanks.


God specializes in resurrecting and reviving. He can take what is dead or dormant and breathe life into it. The breath of God gives joy.

So, go to the creator, dispenser and sustainer of joy. Lean on the one full of joy, Jesus. He will bring your joy back to life as He was brought back to life—-full and robust. Let Him make your joy complete. His joy is your strength. Your joy will rub off on others, and the revival of rejoicing in God will extend from one person to another.
