Happiness Is...

Just as there is only one truth, there also is only one happiness. True happiness comes from a warm relationship with God. Abraham, Noah, Daniel and a host of other people have had this true happiness in the past.

What is true happiness? Happiness is:
* Finding the true purpose for your existence (Eph. 2:10).

* Knowing God's Will and then performing it daily in your life (Matt. 6:10; 7:21; Luke 8:21; 1 John 2:17; 1 Peter 2:15; 4:2, 6; Col. 1:10).

* Having the attitude of a servant toward others at all times as Jesus Christ, our Savior and example, did (Rom. 15:2-3; 1 Cor. 10:24; Matt. 20:26-28; 23:11).

* Having the knowledge of the truth - God's word - and being set free from all religious deception, with its satanic tentacles that grip the earth (John 8:31-32; Rev. 12:9).

* Being set free from all pagan religious traditions of men that make the worship of Jesus Christ in vain (Mark 7:7).

* Receiving answered prayer because you are constantly doing God's Will and are pleasing in His sight (1 John 3:22; John 9:31).

* Hating what is evil and loving what is good (Psalm 45:7; 97:10).

* Always having peace and not letting those who have no peace take yours (Rom. 14:19; Psalm 34:14).

* Always having faith in Christ Jesus that He will supply all your needs after you have done God's Will, and knowing that all will go right for the righteous (Is. 3:10, Matt. 6:25-33).

* Going to God and His word for the truth, instead of to books written by men, which are a great source of religious confusion.

* Keeping life simple by keeping it pure.

* Having the trusting attitude of a child toward the Lord at all times (Matt. 18:3).

* Learning who Jesus Christ really is by studying God's word, instead of believing what man says He is.

* Studying God's word for the answers to all of life's problems and questions (2 Tim. 2:15; 3:16-17).

* Wearing out your Bible for God by reading it every day and highlighting the Scriptures (Acts 17:11).

In conclusion, true happiness is knowing God's Ways and putting them into action in your daily life. This is the only way to be a friend of God. Remember always, Jesus Christ is God and we must keep only His words in order to be truly happy and never see death (John 8:51).

Peace I Leave You

The Goodness of the Lord

Speak the Truth Even If Your Voice Shakes

“The word of the LORD came to me, saying, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” “Alas, Sovereign LORD,” I said, “I do not know how to speak; I am too young.” But the LORD said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am too young.’ You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you,” declares the LORD. Then the LORD reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me, “I have put my words in your mouth. See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant.” Jeremiah 1:4-9
