Righteousness, Peace and Joy in the Holy Spirit. Joy means to spin around. Joy proceeds from God and is one of the fruits of the Spirit. Happiness comes from the outiside. If life is going good, we can be happy. When things are going completely wrong we may not be happy, but we can be joyful because that comes from within.
God Himself experiences Joy.
Zep 3:17 The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.
God is joyful when we believe and obey Him. When we believe on Jesus.
