Joy Centre

As we continue the series on deep healing, we learnt that fear is the master negative emotion and ‘Joy’, the master positive emotion in every human being. And as we grow older, the cells that give joy in the brain increase if joy is activated in us. 

Apostle Paul when he wrote the epistles wrote about ‘joy’ many times though he would not have known the scientific implications. He would have been led by the Holy Spirit to do so. 

Man should be aware that God has created us in a way that as we grow older, our joy should keep on increasing. The place we go to after death is a joyous place and we are being trained to live in joy. However, most of the time because of our circumstances, we are damaged and rejected and live in the opposite way from which God has created us to. If we are aware of it, we must continuously activate our joy centre with the help of the Holy Spirit. 

Our brain produces hormones that give a happy feeling. When the production is less, we become less happy. It is when we disobey God’s divine order that we become damaged. We need to align ourselves to God’s order through the Holy Spirit to free ourselves from all disorders/ Disappointments/disease etc. 

Parents need to know that the formative years of the souls of children are from 0 to 7 years. Parents ( family), Society and Church have a great role/ responsibility to play in these years. The spirit is formed at conception and though the growth of the body is up to 21 years, the formation of the soul is the more important part. Sunday School also helps in strengthening the soul part of a child which is more necessary to keep oneself healthy than anything else. 

The atmosphere at home affects the ‘joy centre’ of a child. A  parent  should come down to the child’s standard and play with them and laugh with them that the development of the joy centre takes place and strengthens the child to face any circumstance with boldness. 

Nehemiah 8.10 says “The Joy of the Lord is my Strength”.
 When a hard assignment is given to two children, the one whose joy centre is developed will do it easily while the one who has no joy will say that it is too hard and not do it. 

Paul was able to worship and sing in the prison as he was strong in the joy centre and even Heaven responded to his joyous worship and praise. 

If a child however, does not receive joy in his childhood and has been damaged, Jesus is able to repair and restore the person. The Holy Spirit who is inside us 24*7 is able to bring us back to joy whenever we are sad. This is an inbuilt mechanism that God has given us to be filled with joy.

The joy centre is activated when we worship the Lord in a fellowship. We must never be too busy to worship the Lord. This increases the joy in us and also trains us to experience it in Heaven. Joy is a medicine and food for our soul. God  has given us an inbuilt system to repair and heal ourselves. Laughter exercise is good for our soul.
