A Christian who prays, and communicates with God, and hears from God by HIS Spirit, and does what God says, will have the fruits of the Spirit of God.
Two of the fruits of the Spirit are joy and peace.
When we pray and God brings us the way to go, we will be joyful as we choose to do that which God has shown us. And we will also have peace and display peace to others.
When we go about telling the problem to other people, complaining about the problem, murmuring about the problem, we are defeated by the problem. This is evidence of failure to turn to God for the solution.
Joy and peace are signs that the person has communicated with God concerning the problem.
I Corinthians 10:5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
