The LORD Jesus Who Lives IN us comforts all who mourn, He give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified. ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭61:1-4‬ ‬

Jesus fulfills these words and living in you continues to fulfill these words through you. Just as Jesus began His ministry in the synagogue in Nazareth saying: ““The Spirit of the LORD is upon me, for He has anointed Me to bring Good News to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim that captives will be released, that the blind will see, that the oppressed will be set free,

He rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the attendant, and sat down. All eyes in the synagogue looked at him intently. Then he began to speak to them. “The Scripture you’ve just heard has been fulfilled this very day!””
‭‭Luke‬ ‭4:18, 20-21‬ ‬

Jesus is giving you the example of how to claim and proclaim the promise that the Holy Spirit of God lifts off the Scriptures pages and reveals to you.

Notice what the Spirit of the LORD anoints you with:

The Spirit of the LORD GIVES you
Beauty for ashes.

The Spirit of the LORD GIVES The Oil of Joy (exhaltation and rejoicing) for mourning. Your God, has anointed You with the Oil of gladness. [Heb. 1:9] Psalm ‭45:7‬

The Garment of Praise (the Mantle of Praise) for the spirit of heaviness (wind or breathe of fainting)

That you may be called (Proclaimed) trees of righteousness, The planting (Place) of the LORD, that He may be glorified. (Isaiah 61:3)

Jesus Christ is the Joy-Giver to men because He is the Redeemer of men

Jesus gives a crown of glory in lieu of ashes of repentance.

Jesus gives the Anointing of the Holy Spirit in Lieu of Tears That Belong to the Discouraged and Discomforted mourners.

Jesus gives the Garment of Praise – and joyful heart inclined to praise God, and Lieu of a heavy heart inclined to despair.

Born again child of God experiences each of these abundant blessings of grace and mercy and God's Goodness Lavishly Bestowed upon Them to Be a Witness of God's Love.

You Literally Stand as a Mighty Tree of Righteousness – Strong and Enduring in the Garden God, Planted by God, in Order That through God You Might Be Glorified.

God is glorified by giving you His glory as His gift, which is the planning of the Lord. What the Lord has given you is His Indwelling Presence in you, the Work of His Strength and Power, That He May Be Glorified. (Isaiah 60:21)

For our sake God made Christ virtually to be sin Who knew no sin, so that in and through Him we might become endued with, viewed as being in, and examples of] the righteousness of God, what we ought to be, approved and acceptable and in right relationship with Him, by His goodness. (2 Corinthians ‭5:21‬)

The only place you find eternal, ultimate Joy is in God alone. The reason is Joy is a Fruit of the Spirit Given by the Holy Spirit of God, God Himself; so That You Experience True Ultimate Joy in Him Alone.

Over and over again in God's word you find he gives instruction to take Great Joy in Him. He Says:

▪Rejoice in the Lord always. (Philippians 4:4)
▪Delight yourself in the Lord. (Psalm 37:4)
▪Be glad in the Lord. (Psalm 32:11)
▪In your presence there is fullness of joy. (Psalm 16:11)
▪The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup. (Psalm 16:5)
▪As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. (Psalm 42:1–2)
▪I stretch out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land. (Psalm 143:6)
▪We rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation. (Romans 5:11)


You Find the Joy of God’s Presence found in trusting in His Unfailing Love. You Rejoice because He has rescued you, from the power of darkness conveyed you in the kingdom of His Dear Son, In Whom you have Redemption, the Forgiveness of Sins. (Colossians 1:13) so, you sing to the LORD because He is Good to you. Psalms ‭13:5-6‬

One of the greatest ways to glorify God and love him is to enjoy him
