If the church is going to represent Jesus Christ, there ought to be a sweet spirit in the church.

​

One of the best compliments a visitor said when they come to our church a couple of years ago, was, "You know, if I could describe your Church in a word, it would be the word 'joy'." People seem to be glad to be there, and a spirit of joy permeated the church.

​

I've been to churches where they could be described in a negative word, haven't you? Contentious, legalistic, tense, weak, disbelieving, sour, worldly, dead.

​

But the Lord wants His church to have a sweet disposition.

The Bible says of the early church that there was, gladness and singleness of heart.

​

David led the attitude for others who worshipped with him he said in anticipation,

I rejoiced with those who said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord.” 
Psalm 122:1
