<p class="subtitle" style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The Importance of Joy and Happiness</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I had heard from the Lord at the end of 2025 that 2026 would be a year of increased anointing. We would be stretching our tents, enlarging them, and experiencing a great increase. Our spheres of influence would increase, and we would begin to give out of abundance rather than out of lack. He said that He would empower us to overcome the spirits of Mammon and Jezebel in 2026 and bring forth great multiplication in many ways.&nbsp;<strong>He also said He was going to judge all&nbsp;<em>barrenness</em>&nbsp;and bring forth&nbsp;<em>fruitfulness</em>.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I was excited for Him to give me more revelation and much more detail. However, on January 1, the Lord began ministering to me about the importance of&nbsp;<em>joy</em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>happiness</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">What? That didn't seem so profound... but it is.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the dictionary, joy and happiness are described similarly, yet we often separate their definitions depending on the subject matter.</p>
