1. You Can Have It!
AmessagefromJesus
Nothing in your life—no physical
circumstance or condition—should
have the power to steal away your
joy, happiness, and contentment.
You have the power to decide how
you think, how you feel, and what
your outlook on life is. You also
have My promises in the Bible that
you can claim for the joy, hope, and
contentment that you desire.

2. I want you to believe in My love for you; to believe
that you can be content, happy, and have a life
filled with joy as you trust in Me and claim My
promises. When you’re in the middle of a very
unhappy situation, you might think that this
is impossible to do, but it's not. Many
people have faced great hardships,
handicaps, and difficulties, yet they
opened their lives to love and joy.
They were cheerful and happy
despite the things that life
had brought their way. They
were overcomers! But they
would have never lifted
a finger, never changed
anything, never gone
anywhere, never been
anyone, if they had
allowed their usefulness
to be swallowed up by
negativity and discontent.
You may not think that
you have a winning
personality or a treasure
chest full of personal
talents, but no matter what
you think about yourself,
praise Me anyway and let
Me help you to keep away any
negative and debilitating feelings.

3. You can be content, positive, and joyful! It is
within your right as My child to claim all these
things because My Word has promised it!
Psalm 16:11 says, “You make known to me the
path of life; in your presence there is fullness
of joy; at your right hand are pleasures
forevermore” (ESV).
