Laughter in the Spirit

Laughter in the Spirit refers to a spiritual experience where individuals feel a joyful, often spontaneous, release of emotion through laughter during worship or prayer. It is believed to result from feeling deeply connected to God's presence, bringing a sense of freedom, relief, and divine joy. This phenomenon is often seen in Pentecostal and Charismatic traditions, emphasizing the experiential and emotional aspects of faith. While it can sometimes surprise or discomfort those unfamiliar with it, many participants view it as a genuine expression of spiritual blessing and a sign of divine joy entering their lives.
