Wisdom Herself invites you to be drunk with Joy!!

The common phrase, "to crack a smile" says lots about the existing condition of ones face! That the depressed and "angry as sin" look on ones face has been there so long that their facial flesh has hardened in that position, and it takes the painful experience of a joyful smile to crack open such an "inviting demeanor".
Its this self same "inviting demeanor" that - for centuries, in general - has warmly welcomed the lost multitudes into the loving arms of our Father who they represent.......
Confused?.... Exactly!!

Friends, Gospel is Good News! Good news makes us Happy, otherwise its not Good News, but rather, Bad News....
It is NOT "a show of holiness" to be miserable as a Christian..... Abba Father does not take pleasure in seeing your suffering, sadness and poverty and it most certainly is NOT the devil prowling around like a roaring lion, looking to see who he can make happy and laugh "in church"!
How obvious this is to some, but sadly it's "heresy" to others!!

I have heard many warnings about Christians being happy or laughing in intimate communion with Jesus!! "Those happy Christians are deceived", they say... "Stay away from them.. it might rub-off on you and cause you to become like them!!.... don't they know that holiness looks morbid and lonely!" - of course these warnings are based on fear and a lack of understanding the Good News. (If this describes your current view or description of "fullness of Joy", no need to despair!! Father loves you deeply and delights to bring fresh revelation - even this very day :)

In this preach by Rob Rufus from City Church International in Hong Kong, he explains that we have available to us, The indwelling Reason to live in constant intoxicating Love in every single day of your life. Enjoy!!

Drunk with Joy!!


Lets thank God for faithful men and woman like John Crowder, Rob Rufus, Joseph Prince, Ben Dunn, Gorgean and Winnie Banov, Bill Johnson, Bertie Brits, Paul White and the like, who have stood their ground for many different aspects of the Gospel revelation, so that soon, as momentum is built, these "fringe truths" and "heresies" (as some would currently yell) will once again take their place in the everyday thinking of believers!
Roll on the Gospel Revolution lord!!


Love to you all!!
As scripture invites us.... "stay drunk with Love" (Songs 5:1)
