JOY---Not a Counterfeit!


Have you had your JOY JUICE today?  The authentic recipe for genuine JOY JUICE cannot be replicated. Only the “real stuff” will do!

            Let’s be warned that there is a master counterfeiter in our midst and he is working constantly to trick us! His name is Satan and is called the “father of lies” in John 8:44. 

            Tomorrow’s World Magazine says: “In our effort to identify a counterfeit faith, we can take a cue from the United States Treasury Department, which fights against counterfeit money. One of the most effective ways to recognize a counterfeit is to be completely and intimately familiar with the real thing. When you are deeply aware of how a real $20 bill feels in your fingers—the intricate details in its artwork, the weight of its paper in your hands, the way it responds when you fold it, the way small fibers are embedded in its material, the way ink bleeds into its paper just a little bit—you can more capably recognize when you have been handed a counterfeit. When you know the 'real thing' , the subtle differences in the counterfeit stand out to you like night stands out from day, even though others less familiar would not even notice!

          We can apply the same strategy in spotting a counterfeit faith. What is that true standard? God's word—the Holy Bible!Let’s determine to study it and know it so intimately that we will readily recognize a counterfeit!

       Drink in the genuine JOY of the Lord! Please join me for a delightful taste of the “real thing”!
