BIG IDEA

Put joy into practice.

MESSAGE NOTES:

WHAT: 

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. Philippians 4:4 ESV

Rejoice — to express or practice joy.

SO WHAT:

Joy can become a verb.

We practice joy. You take the noun and you turn it into a verb. You take the gift of joy and you put it into practice in your life. Your joy doesn’t have to dwindle down as life goes on.

NOW WHAT:

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need,

and thank him for all he has done. Philippians 4:6 NLT

“Taking thoughts captive means controlling them instead of letting them control

you.” — Priscilla Shirer

Practice joy by praying your worries and fixing your thoughts.
