2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, for anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
16 Rejoice always,
17 pray without ceasing,
18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
12 Rejoice in your hope, be patient in tribulation, be faithful in prayer.
7 Each one must give just as he has purposed in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
11 »These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.
8 Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and rejoice with an inexpressible and glorious joy,
9 as you obtain the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
11 »These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.
6 But godliness with contentment is itself great gain.
7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.
17 For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit;
4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice!
22 So you have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you.
24 Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.
32 so that by God's will I may come to you with joy, and together with you be refreshed.
17 For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit;
13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.
4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice!
44 »Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and then in his joy over it he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
2 Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials,
3 for you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
10 That is why, for Christ's sake, I am content in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties; for when I am weak, then I am strong.
15 Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.
8 Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and rejoice with an inexpressible and glorious joy,
9 as you obtain the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
17 Instruct those who are rich in this present world not to be conceited or to fix their hope on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly supplies us with everything to enjoy.
