In Romans 14 we read that the Kingdom of God is “righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.” His personality and nature can be known and understood through these three means!

Righteousness is right standing which is imputed to us as a free gift. Peace and joy however are both emotions and fruits of the Spirit. We are given the keys to grow in both these manifestations of His nature. Joy has many manifestations, depending on what we are walking out.

There is a quiet joy and then there is loud inexpressible joy! God has a joy package for each and every season! Joy is as important as love or peace but we just don’t hear as much about it as we need to.

In fact, in the coming decades, we are going to be living from joy as we handle all the changes on the planet. We are going to become brilliant at joy! This is a supernatural joy that doesn’t actually make sense and defies reality!

Let’s get our minds renewed to walk in this brilliant fruit that displays His personality- a smily happy God who is not mad or sad but actually glad! He is full of joy!
