Galatians 5:22-26

Jesus told His disciples, "I have spoken these things to you, so that My joy may be in you, and your joy may be complete." Joy is an element of the fruit of the Holy Spirit – but authentic biblical joy seems to elude countless Christians. Are you making the choice to pursue and experience genuine biblical joy in your life – or are you sadly neglecting this important choice?

Galatians 5:22-26

You probably know the hymn set to the tune of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony: "Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee." But sadly, many Christians do not experience joy in their relationship with the Lord. They may see God as stern and severe, and as a result, joy is a neglected choice in many believers' lives. How can we experience the spiritual fruit of Christian joy in our lives?

Galatians 5:16-26

You may remember the old television comedy show "Love, American Style" – but more than anything else, our world needs "Love, CHRISTIAN Style." This kind of love, however, is not something we can simply muster up from deep within ourselves – it is a supernatural love that can only be supernaturally produced by the presence of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer.

Galatians 5:16-26

Have you ever taken a bite of rotten fruit by mistake? It might even look fine on the outside, but it tastes so repulsive that you have to spit it out. Well, there are many rotten fruits of the flesh that are detestable to the Lord, and God's Word sets them in sharp contrast to the pleasing and delightful fruit of the Holy Spirit.

John 11

Psalm 23 says, "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me." Join Dr. Harry Reeder on InPerspective as he shows how YOU can be able to walk through the valley of the shadow of death one day with peace and confidence in the Lord.

Galatians 5:16-26

A few apples in a bowl doesn't make a fruit salad; you need to add several other kinds like peaches, strawberries, bananas, grapes, and cantaloupe. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control, and God wants to see the full range of these qualities manifested in our lives.

Galatians 5:16-26

A sweet, crunchy apple ... luscious strawberries on pound cake ... a ripe juicy melon ... a handful of wild berries ... if you are like most people, you love fruit. Well, God loves fruit too – specifically, He loves to see the fruit of the Holy Spirit showing forth in the lives of His redeemed people.

Joel 3

Joel prophesied about the valley of decision, where all the peoples and nations of the earth will be gathered for God's final judgment in the Day of the Lord. The day of the Lord in the valley of decision will reveal His ultimate and final decision about the eternal destiny of every person – but until that day, we are to go to all the nations proclaiming the day of the Lord’s salvation.

Joel 3

Many people would automatically consider jealousy to be a sin – but the Bible declares that our God is a jealous God. He is jealous for His name, His glory, His Word, and His people. It is that jealousy for His people that compelled Jesus to go to the cross to save those who belong to Him. How is this holy jealousy of God displayed for us in the book of Joel?

Joel 2:28-32

Many families and schools practice fire drills, to train everyone to know and follow an escape route in case of emergency. The great and terrible Day of the Lord as prophesied by Joel is coming upon everyone throughout the whole earth – but God has made one single escape route from the divine judgment that will befall the human race.
