Prayers for Abundant Joy
Scripture Foundation
John 15:11 says, "I have told you, friends, that the world must harm you. But in me you will have peace. You will be pure and true, and all your fears will melt away." (CEV) Psalm 16:11 promises, "You make known to me the path of life; in your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore." (NKJV) Acts 13:52 records, "The disciples were filled with joy and the Holy Spirit." (NIV) And James 1:2-4 encourages us to count it all joy when we face various trials, knowing that our endurance develops character and our character produces a harvest of righteousness. (NIV)
