"IMPOSSIBLE JOY!"
Study Notes
Romans 14:17:
The Kingdom of God is Righteousness, Peace, & JOY in the HOLY GHOST!
I hear the Lord saying:
“Those who love My Presence will have a continual feast of JOY! What I give you right now will seem impossible in the midst of this turmoil. The GREAT JOY My servants will have in such difficult times will seem IMPOSSIBLE to them. But it will be IMPOSSIBLY WONDERFUL!
The joy of the Lord in His people will become CONTAGIOUS, and it will be a STARK CONTRAST to the anxiety and fear that the world is walking in.”
Nehemiah 8:10: DO NOT GRIEVE, for the JOY OF THE LORD IS YOUR STRENGTH!
Hebrews 12:2-3 FOR THE JOY SET BEFORE HIM Jesus endured the cross...
Hebrews 10:32: You suffered along with those in prison and JOYFULLY accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions.
Psalm 16:11: In the Presence of God there is fullness of joy.
*Persecution is coming. We must know how to access strength & joy in the Holy Spirit!
*Romans 14:17 Progression from righteousness (consecration by faith) into peace with God (through relational prayer) into joy (through answered prayer).
*Philippians 2:12 NIV: ...continue to WORK OUT YOUR SALVATION with fear and trembling. Salvation is an ongoing process. The Power of God will be the distinguishing factor between those who KNOW God and those who are only religious in these last days.
*1 Thessalonians 1: Gospel does not come to us in Word only, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit. Thessalonian church received the Word in tribulation with the joy of the Holy Spirit.
Righteousness= imputed; no one is righteous apart from Christ. (Romans 3:9-20)
Peace= a gateway into joy. Isaiah 54: 9-10 declares we have a covenant of peace with God!
Joy= a reason that we pray! Tests & trials produce perseverance (John 16:24; James 1)
John 16:22-24: our hearts WILL rejoice, and no one will be able to take that joy from us!
Luke 6:22-23: “Blessed are you when men hate (or persecute) you for My sake. BE GLAD and full of CHEER, and JUMP FOR JOY, for behold, your reward is very great in heaven!
-Jesus attended the wedding in Cana & filled ALL the water pots with wine!
-5000 people: Jesus FILLED ALL of them with bread! He fills ALL things in EVERY way!
-These two miracles of Christ concern the bread & wine, or communion. The Lord illustrates even through signs and wonders that His desire is to fill us completely!
-When Pentecost came: ALL the disciples were filled with the Holy Spirit!
-When Peter preached to Cornelius' household: they were ALL FILLED with the Holy Spirit!
-When Moses/Aaron were in the Tabernacle: GLORY appeared to ALL people, & ALL fell down & worshiped God!
-Haggai 2: the GLORY of the latter house will be GREATER than the glory of the former.
God says we can expect a tremendous outpouring of His FULLNESS.
The secret to experiencing GLORY is hidden in Leviticus 9 (A Lifestyle of Repentance through the Blood)

PROPHETIC WORD GIVEN TO DEBORAH in MARCH, 2020:
“Sorrow upon sorrow will fill the hearts of the unrighteous, while GRACE UPON GRACE is multiplied to My people. My goodness is overtaking you NOW in this season, that you may be FULL of the JOY that gives you ENDURING STRENGTH.
"Love is the spark that ignites joy, and joy is the sustaining strength the church will need in this hour to withstand the attacks that are coming. Terror and wrath will fall upon men, but joy will fall upon those who know Me. Expectant believers worldwide will recognize the coming glory of the Church and embrace the JOY being released during these times of trouble.
"I am watching for the ones who will run into Me, into My embrace, and you will begin to see - even in the natural realm - the definition of those who are loving Me privately, for their love will begin to radiate publicly in outbursts of joy. “Joy unspeakable” will arise on the inside of these lovers of God and lovers of holiness, a joy that cannot be quenched. They will look foolish to the world, for the world will not see this inner force of joy, but anyone who is called by My Name will recognize it. Align yourselves with those who do not complain but speak in a spirit of FAITH in this hour. Only faith and joy will sustain you in “perilous times.”
"Dig deep into the joy of My Kingdom through your relationship with Holy Spirit. He knows what you need in order to continue your work in Me. HOLY SPIRIT IS FULL OF MY JOY BECAUSE HE IS CONSTANTLY AWARE OF THE FRUITS OF YOUR LABORS ON THE EARTH, THE INCOMING HARVEST ALREADY AMASSING! He will share His joy with you. He will strengthen you as only a true Comforter can. He will remind you of things to come. all will become clear as you walk it out. The joy that will come as a result of this great harvest will so reverberate and resound in heaven’s courts that the heavens themselves will break open to release a flood of blessings.”
