Fruits are evidence of your transformation and the evidence that you are truly saved. You now have joy as a fruit. But joy is not just a fruit.

Jesus said that in this life we would go through trials and tribulations. So as believers, we need to know the weapons in our arsenal.

Jesus also said be of good cheer because He has overcome the world. Joy, then, is not just a fruit but also a weapon in your arsenal. We must learn that victory does not come through strength or might.

Can you trust God, knowing that with God nothing is impossible? Can you approach your trials this way? The more excellent way is to rejoice! You rejoice because God has already given you the victory.
