GOD NEVER SAID THAT - Part 1 of 4 God Wants You Happy April 10, 2016 But the godly are happy…. --Psalm 97:12 (NET)

GOD DOES NOT EXIST TO SERVE US! 1. GOD DOESN’T WANT YOU HAPPY… •

•

WHEN IT CAUSES YOU TO DO SOMETHING WRONG OR UNWISE. But just as He who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do. --1 Peter 1:15 (NIV)

WHEN IT IS ONLY BASED ON THINGS OF THIS WORLD. Better possessions + peaceful circumstances + thrilling experiences + the right relationships + the perfect appearance = HAPPINESS. Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever. --1 John 2:15-17 (NIV)

2. GOD WANTS YOU BLESSED Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart. --Psalm 37:4 (ESV)

But the godly are happy; they rejoice before God and are overcome with joy. --Psalm 97:12 (NET) May all who are godly rejoice in the Lord and praise His holy name! --Psalm 97:12 (NLT)
