John 16:16-33
The eleven disciples to whom Christ spoke the words of this passage from His "Farewell Discourse" were experiencing anything but joy! They were distressed and sorrowful because He told them He was leaving and despite all the fantastic promises He gave them, they were despondent. They wanted HIM, not His promises. However, the many promises He gave them from John 14 to this point DID make a difference in their lives! All their sorrows DID turn to joy - and it was a joy no one or anything could ever take from them.
The words Christ spoke that night to His despondent men CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN YOUR LIFE, too! YOU, too, can have a joy unspeakable that no one or anything can ever take from you!
In this lesson, we discover what the Lord told His followers about coming joy. He spoke about transformed joy, which is born out of pain; He spoke of transcendent joy, which is found in prayer, and He discussed triumphant joy, which is the peace of being "in Him"!
