Galatians 5:22-23 People make excuses about their life but if you don’t have joy then
you are not going to be saved. Whatever that you were dealing with that took your
joy was a idol. If God is the strength of your joy, those things will not take your joy
away.
Psalms 35:9 For a Christian you can always be happy because God saved you from
your sin.
Psalms 63:1-5 Verse 4- If you got real joy then you will lift up your hands. Verse 5- You
hate to see people who are saved by God run around and can’t praise God with joyful
lips.
Proverbs 22:1 Verse 1- Everybody has a reputation. A good name is valuable.
You should care about what people think about you.
Matthew 5:13 So many people who call themselves Christian just try to blend into the
background. Verse 14- you are supposed to be the light of the world. You should be
trying to make a difference in the world. God wants you to influence people. How
many of you are an example unto people? Verse 16- “That they may see your good
works”. If you want a good reputation then you are going to have to do something
that people can see and hear.
Proverbs 22:2-6 Verse 3- The devil will tell you that if you are a Christian then you
can take the temptation. Verse 5- there are alot of traps set up for you that you can

Parents are supposed to train their child. If you don’t train up your child then you are
foolish.
