Warrior Prayers -- Day 10

21 Days of Prayer for our Sons…

Today’s Prayer in on JOY

Today, we continue praying for each specific “fruit of the Spirit” mentioned in Galatians 5:22.

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, JOY, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control, against such there is no law.” – Galatians 5:22

When I hear the word JOY, I always think of that song that I learned when I was little:

I’ve got the JOY, JOY, JOY, JOY down in my heart!

Where?

Down in my heart!

Where?

Down in my heart!

I’ve got the JOY, JOY, JOY, JOY down in my heart!

Where?

Down in my heart to stay!

Honestly, I don’t ALWAYS feel like having JOY in my heart every minute of every day. However, that should be our goal.

“Christ’s work on the cross was never intended to be something we took joy in one time and then never again. Thinking on His work and embracing it with a heart of gratefulness is enough to make even the grumpiest among us ‘burst out in songs of thanksgiving.’ No matter where we are, or what we’re experiencing, we CAN find joy in focusing on all that Christ has done and made possible through His death and resurrection.” (from Warrior Prayers Leaders Guide)

Today’s verses are:

Nehemiah 8:10

Galatians 5:22

Isaiah 55:12

Romans 15:13

Psalm 43:4

James 1:1-4

Psalm 30:5

1 Thessalonians 1:6

Romans 15:13

Romans 14:17

Pray for God to help you and your family to spread JOY to everyone around you today!

I’m praying & believing!
