The River River Church Lake Charles

Pastor Liz Burns

-Our Joy is not found in our circumstances. The source of Joy comes from God, who has unlimited resources.
-Don't lose sight of your bucket. We draw Joy from the well.
-When we locate our Joy, we stay positive and optimistic.

-What are you using your strength for?
-We should not just live but give
-Happiness is found when giving not receiving

- We can cheer on God to move in our lives.
- Are you cheering on your friends and family?
- Four parts: Rejoice, gentleness, be anxious for nothing, the peace of God.

Pastor Kevin Burns

-Don't let your blessings become idols
-Joy, only moments that God can fulfill
-We see Moses and Abraham contending for something. What are you contending with God for?

Pastor Kevin Burns

-Joy is the fruit that the enemy attacks in the process of believing to receiving.
-The enemy wants to rob us of our faith. Time is the biggest detriment of faith. Then enemy wants us to give up.
-Be joyous in your season of waiting

-Practicing gratitude 15 mins a day, five days a week for six weeks has many health benefits
-If I hang my happiness on anything in this world I will be left disappointed
-The Lord God is eternal because He NEVER changes, He is consistent and reliable. He will NOT let you down
