“Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.” Psalm 37:4 NIV
To delight in the Lord means to take pleasure in Him and find fulfillment in Him. This also means loving Him with all your heart, doing what pleases Him and living according to His will. David said “the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want”. David compared to Saul was a man after God’s own heart because He took delight in God and he was rewarded for it.
When we delight in the Lord, His desires and the things He takes pleasure in becomes Ours. As a result we begin to walk in His perfect will thereby having a sense of an unexplainable joy, peace, happiness and fulfillment deep within us. Life becomes more about God and less about us.
Prayer and Reflection:
Dear Lord, from today onwards help me to take pleasure in and to only desire the things that pleases you. So that all the desires of my heart will be fulfilled and I will be fully satisfied in you.
This I pray in Jesus name Amen! 🙏🏽
