When was the last time you felt real joy? Not the quick kind that fades by evening, but the steady gladness that lingers when life gets hard.
In this episode of The Doxa Project Daily Devotional and Prayer, we look at Jesus’ words in John 15:11: “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.”
This is the kind of joy that doesn’t come from success, comfort, or ease. It comes from being close to Christ. The Holy Spirit gives believers a joy that pain can’t take and sorrow can’t drown.
You’ll learn:
How Christ’s joy differs from surface-level happiness
Why true joy lasts through hard seasons
How the Spirit keeps your heart steady in Christ’s finished work
Why choosing joy is an act of faith
How abiding in Jesus fills your heart to the brim
Wisdom from John Piper:
“The joy of the Lord is a deep and durable delight in the beauty and worth of Jesus Christ.”
Each devotional from The Doxa Project points back to Scripture, helping you walk with peace, hope, and confidence in the gospel.
Reflection question:
Where have you seen God give you joy when life felt heavy?
