Bible Text: John 16:12-24 | Preacher: Jodie McNeill | Series: The Spirit-filled life

As we receive the gift of joy, God gives us something that is deeper, fuller, and richer than mere happiness.
For, joy is a special gift that will fill to overflowing the deep desires we all are created to yearn.
Joy is a special gift that God has given all believers that provides a deep satisfaction that no amount of material or physical possessions can ever deliver.
Here are five key points that the Bible teaches about joy.
The first is that joy is different to happiness.
The second is that joy is related to people.
The third is that joy is a product of sharing God’s heart.
The fourth is that joy is forward-looking.
And the final point is that joy is a gift from God.
