God has delivered us from the second death, hell and the grave...He has turned our captivity from Satan's kingdom of darkness! I am in God's Kingdom of Light! Hallelujah!! :love::ROFL::ROFL::ROFL::ROFL::ROFL::love:(y)

Psalm 126:1-3

King James Version


126 When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream.
2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The Lord hath done great things for them.
3 The Lord hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.

When were their mouths filled with laughter?

"When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream."

As I cautioned Justbyfaith--even Satan quotes scripture to His advantage.

This laughter is not a spiritual gift, such as tongues or prophecy, but is a supernatural infusion of joy by the Holy Spirit. If you don't want it, then don't take it. No one's forcing you.

Though I really wish you'd stop poisoning the minds of others with this Kundalini nonsense. You don't see me running around telling all who will listen to avoid those who have a form of godliness but lack the power, now do you?

It's not our goal, it's not the object of our affection, it's oil that causes everything to work better. And it's a lot of fun!
Yes, there's an enemy, but far superior is He that is in me than any devil.

Love the pic--and I agree, he wants us to be joyful IN THE LORD! Not in emotionalism, not in disorderly behaviour.

"So if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and inquirers or unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are out of your mind?"--1st Corinthians 14:23

And that can apply to Holy Laughter too.

How is He loving on us if this laughter is not generated by the Holy Spirit?:unsure:

From what I've witnessed, when the Kingdom of God collides with the kingdom of darkness, it is something like a cold weather front crashing into a warm weather front!
When I've experienced it, it is generated by the Holy Spirit! If it wasn't, I'd have nothing to do with it.

Oh RA, take off those religious legalistic blinders....open your eyes! See our Heavenly Father's incredible LOVE flowing by His Word and His Holy Spirit through Daniel Adams, Kathryn Krick, Isaiah Saldivar, Derek Prince and others....to the Body of Christ!

You are LOOOOOOVED SOOOOOO MUCH!

So much evil was spoken by the Pharisees about Jesus Christ.....just saying. I don't believe anyone unless the Holy Spirit in me confirms He is in them, amen. :love:(y)

Those goats are big talkers with NO ACTION! They "say." If they TRULY had prophesied and cast out demons and done all those mighty works in the Name of Jesus - Jesus would know them.

They just SAY they did and DON'T. I know Daniel Adams is the real deal. I was just at his service in Fredricksburg, TX. Sure enough, I got hit with Holy Spirit Laughter way in the very back! LOL! :ROFL::ROFL::love:(y)

You quote a lot of scripture but, you haven't said anything about how wonderful Jesus is and how incredible His LOVE is....do you know Him? :unsure:

Well, God has chosen to let the tares grow up with the wheat....at harvest time, God will know how to separate the two. I'm really not concerned at all! I'm just enjoying His Love! :love::giggle:

Lafftur, you say Holy Laughter is not a gift of the Spirit. Understood. But you say here 'God chooses to cause'. If this is true, then for it to manifest in 'believers' it would of necessity be by means of the Holy Spirit. However, I can't find that anywhere in Scripture.

Instead I see the Holy Spirit:

1. Teaching
2. Guiding
3. Convicting
4. Encouraging
5. Revealing truth
6. Sanctifying
7. Interceding
