In a world that knocks us down, joy can feel so elusive. But Scripture is filled with encouragement, that there is a joy available to us in God that transcends the pain and suffering of the world. This week on the First15 podcast, we’re going to take time every day to open our hearts and receive the joy of the Father, that we could be children marked by the joy of heaven. May you discover the greater portion of joy available to you through the Spirit as you encounter the heart of your Father this week.   Our Scripture for today comes from Nehemiah 8:10, and today's worship is Refreshing by First15 Worship feat. Nikki Moltz.   --   Thanks for listening to today’s First15 Podcast. My name is Ryn, and I’m a part of the First15 Team. If you haven’t downloaded our brand new First15 app, make sure to click here to check it out! One of the new features that you can enjoy when you download the app is our Guided Prayers. We are adding new prayers on various topics to our library every month, so be on the lookout for them!    In today’s First15 Podcast we wanted to give you a preview of a new Guided Prayer that I wrote titled, “Keep In Perfect Peace.”  In the midst of great anxiety, nothing gives us more hope than the promise of supernatural peace. I hope this promise blesses you today, friend, and I pray it begins to resonate with you just as much as it has with me for all these years. God bless you.
