Sermon Notes: Elder M. Gaither 'In His Presence, My Cup Runs Over' 3.27.11



Elder M. Gaither Sunday March 27, 2011

“In His Presence My Cup Runs Over”

Psalms 16: 5-11


Happiness is dependent on happenings.

There is something more available to us – joy. Joy comes from the inside.


The joy of the Lord is our strength. Happiness is a state of mind, which changes. Who is in control? There is one far bigger than my problems. True joy comes from spending time with God. Spending time with God builds our faith. Without faith it is impossible to please God. What robs you of your joy? Are you waiting on things to change your life and make you happy?


3 Keys to Experiencing Joy

1) Fret not; know that God loves us.

2) Faint not; know that God holds us in his hand.

3) Fear not; know that God keeps you.


Stay close to God day by day and let your joy be full. Everything that we need is in his presence. Press to get in his presence.
