Session 4: The Promise of Joy and the Illusion of Happiness (Jn. 15:11)
Notes:
John 13-17 is the greatest teaching by the greatest teacher in history. It is a most important passage for God’s people in the generation in which Jesus returns, when many will be troubled by dark emotions such as fear, shame, bitterness, grief, etc. Jesus promised to strengthen His people with supernatural joy to enable them to have a vibrant heart that overcomes sin and dark emotions.
11“These things I have spoken…that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.” (Jn. 15:11)
Many define joy and happiness in different ways. I speak of “divine joy” as that which is imparted to us only as we relate to Jesus. I speak of “natural happiness” to describe the good feelings we have related to favorable circumstances—relationships, possessions, achievements, positions, etc.
I value “natural happiness,” but the intense pursuit of it is an illusion rooted in idealism.
