he revealed that Joy and praise are proofs of faith and faith is our link to our inheritance and portion in God (Psalm 106:12). It is believers who can praise, so faith people are praised, people. So, when your faith is in place, your praise is in place; when your praise is in place, your faith is in place and when your faith is in place, your harvest is enforced, you collect what is yours.
He said that the Apostle of faith, Smith Wigglesworth, they said he was always smartly and sharply dressed; always and then, always smiling. If you came around him, you couldn’t catch depression. No wonder they called him the Apostle of faith. He said that Apostles of faith are possessors of praise and joy.
He said that he met with some of their pastors, some people who were in this ministry before, who are no longer there. He had a meeting with them, just a brief meeting with some of them who have their own ministries, and one of them told him, “I don’t know the last time I laughed like this, the way I’m laughing right now. This joy, this thing you carry is still there. It’s even more now. You make us laugh all the time.” One of the young men who work with him also said, “Every time you’re around, I’m just excited. You just carry something contagious, something explosive, infectious that makes people excited and explode.”
Finally, he said that you cannot believe in God and be depressed. You cannot believe God is on the throne and that the Word of God is true and that God is stronger than the devil and yet, you are depressed. You only believe that the devil is more powerful than God, so you are not happy. You believe that you are not going to succeed in life, so you are not happy. You believe that what God said He will do in your life will not happen, so you are not happy. But who is he that saith it and it cometh to pass when the Lord commandeth it not?
