"Joy in the Bible is the means by which we are sustained in suffering...and joy is that for which suffering is preparing us." John Piper
"For the Christian, joy is not the absence of suffering and adversity, but the nearness of God in our adversity." Bob Deffinbaugh
Don't rejoice because demons are subject to you, but because your name is written in heaven. If you make heaven you source of rejoicing, then no one can take your joy from you! If you belong to Christ, then your name is written in the Lamb's book of life and let no one steal your crown!
1 Peter 4:13 but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christs sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.
