The saga of "The Secret of GOD", as revealed in James 1:1; with a renewed mind and our victory as foretold.

The introduction to James has summed up what lays ahead for our walk of faith in GOD'S Faithfulness just as the Lord Jesus Christ did, as our pattern, and Paul became our example of the same.


James 1:1, 2-4 "James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
"My brethren, count[1] it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing." (KJV)


James 1:1, 2-4 "James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion: Greetings.
"Count[1] it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing." (ESV)

James 1:1, 2-4 "My name is James, I am bonded to GOD and his Lord Jesus Christ. It is in this capacity that I am writing to you, wherever you are. You might even be part of the twelve tribes which are scattered like seed all over the world. I greet you with joyful encouragement!
Temptation and contradictions come in different shapes, sizes, and intervals; their intention is always to suck you into their energy field. However, my Friends, your joy in who you know you are [1]leads you out triumphantly every time. (The word, [1, G2233] hegeomai, comes from a strengthened form of ago, to lead, thus, to officially appoint in a position of authority; to lead with distinguished authority. Joy is the official voice of faith! "Count it all joy," make a calculation to which joy can be the only logical conclusion.) Here is the secret: joy is not something you have to fake, it is the fruit of what your faith knows to be true about you! You know that the proof of your faith results in persuasion that remains constant in contradiction. (Just like a mother hen patiently broods over her eggs,) steadfastness provides you with a consistent environment, and so patience prevails and proves your perfection; how entirely whole you are and without any shortfall." (The Mirror)

There now that was short from my point of view. No wonder the Lord Jesus said my joy I give to you and count it all joy! May he increase our joy.
