Fullness Of joy

Text: John 15: 11

FULLNESS OF JOY

Some people think that the keeping of God’s commandments is very hard. Jesus’ perspective was quite different. He found great joy in abiding in His Father, His commandments and His love.

“These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.”

John 15:11

1. “These things I have spoken to you”

a. “These things” is a reference to:
i. The previous lessons Jesus had taught.
ii. The present lessons that He was teaching them (e.g. John 12-15).
b. “I have spoken to you”
i. The lessons Jesus was teaching was of great significance.
ii. The present lessons were vital to spiritual growth.

2. “That My joy may remain in you”

a. The word “remain” is the same as the word “abide”.
b. The word that Jesus spoke must bring joy to the heart.
i. Joy in the promise of the Holy Spirit.
ii. Joy in the love that Jesus had shown them.
iii. Joy in the word given and its depth.
iv. Joy at the thought of bearing much fruit.
c. This joy was meant to abide in their hearts.
d. This joy was not meant to be a temporary thing.

3. “And that your joy may be full”

a. Fulness of joy is a special blessing from the Lord.
b. It comes from
i. Abiding in Jesus.
ii. Abiding in His word.
iii. Abiding in His love.
c. It is a joy that may be experienced.
d. This joy is God’s special way of confirming our abiding in Jesus.
