Absolutely backwards and untrue. Nowhere in scripture does it say that God wants us to be happy. In fact, seeking our own happiness could literally be a definition of sin, because sin is all about putting ourselves at the center, making ourselves out to be God. Is it ok to be happy? Sure, but happiness is just an emotion, not a state of being. True fulfillment comes in having a relationship with Jesus Christ, recognizing him as the God of the universe and of our lives, loving Him with all our heart, soul, and mind, and loving our neighbor as our self. Joy and fulfillment are the goal, not happiness. Honestly, the problem with this entire world is people seeking their own happiness, rather than finding the joy that comes in loving others through Jesus Christ.
