If you fully lived in Gods love you would be filled with joy, and you wouldn't need to try harder to pray. Joy is not just a feeling, it is a condition of the heart.
The fruit of the Spirit we’re focusing on this month is the Joy, the Spiritual Discipline that will accompany it is Prayer.
“Set your mind and keep focused habitually on the things above [the heavenly things], not on things that are on the earth [which have only temporal value].” Colossians 3:2
“But I say, walk habitually in the [Holy] Spirit [seek Him and be responsive to His guidance], and then you will certainly not carry out the desire of the sinful nature [which responds impulsively without regard for God and His precepts].” Galatians 5:16
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you will abound in hope and overflow with confidence in His promises.” Romans 15:13
How to experience more Joy:
Prayer Reminders: Start and end your day with prayer, set a reminder for midday.
Morning: Lords Prayer, then paraphrase in your own words
Afternoon: Psalm 23, then paraphrase in your own words
Evening: Examen (5 quick steps)
