Part 3 - How to Receive Great Joy in Difficult Times. Humility

The joy right now is nowhere to be found in the country! Morally and economically it’s a disaster! Why! I believe it’s because we as a nation has embraced all forms of humanism and its perversions! God has said ok! You do not want me let me see what you can do without me!

What can we do! 2 Chronicle chapter7:14 have the key to this answer!

Principle number one! Develop the spirit of Humility.

1. To receive great joy in difficult times we need to be humble in our attitude and not haughty.

James chapter 4 verses 1-10 “From where come wars and fighting’s among you? Come they not here, even your lusts that war in your members?
Ye lust, and have not; ye kill and desire to have, and cannot obtain; ye fight and war, ye ye have not, because ye ask not.
Ye ask, and amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lust.
Ye adulterers and adulteresses know you not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever, therefore, will be a friend of the world is an enemy of God.
Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, the spirit that dewlleth in us lusteth to envy?
But he giveth more grace, wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud but giveth grace to the humble.
Submit yourselves, therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you……

In these passages God tell us by being humble that he will lift us up!

It is means, “God I need you, our country needs you. Please forgive us of our sins.”

Joy and great Joy begins with having a humble spirit! Not I but Christ!

How can I know when revival comes? When we have a humble spirit, by following these verses,we will also see changes in our nation and our behaviors and we are turning from our sins.

Then and only then will we see a healing to our nation problems!

America wake up before we blow up!
Love,
Eddie
