Alegria e felicidade
A alegria é fruto do Espírito e marca do cristão. Alegrai-vos sempre no Senhor! A Bíblia ensina que a alegria de Deus é nossa fortaleza — não depende de circunstâncias, mas da presença de Deus.
Alegrai-vos no Senhor
Alegrai-vos sempre no Senhor! Outra vez digo: alegrai-vos! Na presença de Deus há plenitude de alegria eterna.
4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice;
4 Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice;
Fruto do Espírito
O fruto do Espírito é amor, alegria, paz. A alegria do Senhor é nossa fortaleza — não depende do mundo.
22 And the fruit of the Spirit is: Love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith,23 meekness, temperance: against such there is no law;
Alegria nas tribulações
Os que semeiam em lágrimas ceifarão com alegria. Tende por motivo de grande gozo quando caídes em diversas tentações.
2 All joy count it, my brethren, when you may fall into temptations manifold;3 knowing that the proof of your faith does work endurance,
10 therefore I am well pleased in infirmities, in damages, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses -- for Christ; for whenever I am infirm, then I am powerful;
8 whom, not having seen, you love, in whom, now not seeing and believing, you are glad with joy unspeakable and glorified,9 receiving the end of your faith -- salvation of souls;
8 whom, not having seen, you love, in whom, now not seeing and believing, you are glad with joy unspeakable and glorified,9 receiving the end of your faith -- salvation of souls;
Alegria compartilhada
Alegrai-vos com os que se alegram. O Senhor fez coisas grandiosas por nós — alegrai-vos no Senhor e regozijai-vos.
12 in the hope rejoicing; in the tribulation enduring; in the prayer persevering;
15 to rejoice with the rejoicing, and to weep with the weeping,
17 for the reign of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit;
17 for the reign of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit;
13 and the God of the hope shall fill you with all joy and peace in the believing, for your abounding in the hope in power of the Holy Spirit.
32 that in joy I may come unto you, through the will of God, and may be refreshed with you,
7 each one, according as he does purpose in heart, not out of sorrow or out of necessity, for a cheerful giver does God love,
6 but it is great gain -- the piety with contentment;
17 Those rich in the present age charge you not to be high-minded, nor to hope in the uncertainty of riches, but in the living God, who is giving to us all things richly for enjoyment; --
Jesus e a alegria
A minha alegria esteja em vós e a vossa alegria seja completa. Pedi e recebereis para que a vossa alegria seja plena.
11 these things I have spoken to you, that my joy in you may remain, and your joy may be full.
11 these things I have spoken to you, that my joy in you may remain, and your joy may be full.
22 'And you, therefore, now, indeed, have sorrow; and again I will see you, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no one does take from you,
24 till now you did ask nothing in my name; ask, and you shall receive, that your joy may be full.
2 looking to the author and perfecter of faith -- Jesus, who, over-against the joy set before him -- did endure a cross, shame having despised, on the right hand also of the throne of God did sit down;
6 and apart from faith it is impossible to please well, for it benefits him who is coming to God to believe that He is, and to those seeking Him He becomes a rewarder.
Alegria eterna
Alegria eterna terão sobre suas cabeças. O Senhor reinará com alegria sobre o seu povo para todo o sempre.
16 always rejoice you;17 continually pray you;18 in every thing give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus in regard to you.
7 'I say to you, that so joy shall be in the heaven over one sinner reforming, rather than over ninety-nine righteous men, who have no need of reformation.
44 'Again, the reign of the heavens is like to treasure hid in the field, which a man having found did hide, and from his joy goes, and all, as much as he has, he sells, and buys that field.
