The Word of God reveals a simple truth that the enemy would never want us to know, and that truth is that God, the creator of joy, did not place joy out of our reach or make its presence in our lives dependent on our circumstances; instead, he benevolently created the nature of joy to be a product of our relationship with him. That is why you can see people living the most amazing seasons of their lives and still lack joy, while others experience the driest, most painful circumstances and somehow remain joyful. The latter have learned how to grow the fruit of joy in their lives through the help of the Holy Spirit. They don't wait for their circumstances to change, and they don't tell themselves they will be happier when they get what they are waiting for or that joy is unobtainable. They have learned to cultivate joy and, therefore, enjoy its sweetness during every season of their lives. This book focuses on truths from the Word of God that will teach you how to produce joy, regardless of your present circumstance.
