If we love righteousness,and hate evil,the lord our God will make us stand out with joy that knows no bounds. Joy cannot be faked.It has to well up from within.worldly joy is momentally.only those annointed with oil of gladness can maintain and enjoy un-interrupted joy.oh yes contageous communicable joy.

Success per excellence is a function of Holiness per purity. Be wholistically holy, pure and righteous; then Ps. 92:10 will now come to fulfilment (You {God} have exalted my horn like that of a unicorn, therefore my head is anointed with FRESH OIL). Fresh Oil of Holy Spirit; of joy unspeakable; of undeniable gladness.

I think that God created the world in word according John 1:1 and again 1 john 5:7 says for there are three who bear witness in heaven the father, the word, and the holy spirit; and these three are one so that now we are seeing the Hebrews 1:8 Father and Son relationship only ....

If you stay away from wrong doing the Lord will always bring you happiness, more than the wrong do'ers which know right from wrong in still choose wrong..God's extra gift shines upon you as an example.

That scripture is the death knell of the Trinity.

His fellows, his partners, are clearly other angels and the Father has elevated him well above, far above, his fellow angels. And somebody anointed is also appointed, by somebody higher than them-self. That is why it says a few verses later it says "he was obliged to become like his brothers in all respects." BROTHERS ???
