Notes:

Building Community of Love & Trust in

Prayer
This week Adventists around the world continued in the 10-days of
prayer, gathering at homes and praying for the outpouring of the Holy
Spirit. Wednesday night as the church comes together for prayer we
focus on one aspect every week. Earl Biggs led reflections on the first
feature of the fruit of Holy Spirit joy (Galatians 5:22-23). The fruit of the
Spirit is Love, which is: joy, peace and more. Joy is listed first.
Usually when people are encouraged to pray in public, requests are
more numerous than praises. We are more aware of our needs than are
willing to express our gladness. Yet, for the redeemed, for those who are
saved the joy of salvation is overflowing. When you read Habakkuk
3:17-18 it is ones salvation and not material things that is the source of
Joy. Isaiah 12 the shortest chapter in this prophetic book is all about
the Joy of Salvation, which is in God who saves.
So, pause and ask yourself Am I rejoicing in Salvation I have
received from God? Am I glad and happy being set free, redeemed,
liberated, healed, by Christ, the Lord of my Salvation? I invite you to
think on this, because true religious experience is full of joy! Real
Christianity is all about salvation, freedom, blessings abounding in God,
who is the author and doer of our salvation.
Psalmist David in his prayer of repentance says it best (Psalm 51) 10
Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within
me. 11 Do not cast me away from Your presence, And do not take Your
Holy Spirit from me. 12 Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, And
uphold me by Your generous Spirit. 13 Then I will teach transgressors
Your ways, And sinners shall be converted to You.
Notice what brings the joy of salvation being restored to
righteousness, entering Gods presence, receiving Holy Spirit. Only then
we are ready and fit to evangelize, to share this joy with others, to witness
so others may be converted, changed, turned to freedom too! This
liberating Joy of the Lord gives us strength (Nehemiah 8:10) It is Pauls
personal experience of salvation that gave him joy even in prison, and
moved him to write to all believers Rejoice in the Lord always!
(Philippians 4:4) not in your possessions, achievements, human
relationships, but in the Lord who gives salvation.
Jesus says I came that your joy may be full (John 15:11) and he
invites us to ask for the Holy Spirit, for our joy may be always full (John
16:24). Cherish the Joy of Salvation! May your countenance express
gladness that you found Jesus, happiness of relationship with God of the
Universe. And remember that God answers even before you call (Isaiah
65:24), but you must call in prayer to have the answer manifested!
your servant, pastor Alex Golovenko
