Living in Increase (Part 11) - Increase in JoySample

God's Will

Why should we be thankful? Why should we increase in joy? Because it’s God’s will for us.

God desires for us to live in a constant state of joy, prayer, and thankfulness. As hopefully you’ve seen this week, the Bible has a lot to say about giving thanks. For Christians, thanksgiving is part of our everyday lifestyle and God’s good, pleasing, and perfect will (Romans 12:2).

As we wrap up this week on gratitude, I encourage you to make this an everyday choice. Find something to be thankful for daily, and watch how God transforms your life and increases your joy!
