Memory Verse:
Always
be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again—rejoice! Philippians 4:4
Rejoice! What more joy filled word is there than rejoice?
What is the Delight of Your Heart?
The
LORD your God will delight in you if you obey his voice and keep the
commands and decrees written in this Book of Instruction, and if you turn to
the LORD your God with all your heart and soul. Deuteronomy 30:10
For
the LORD your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight
in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will
rejoice over you with joyful songs." Zephaniah 3:17
 |
| Trees planted on a river bank (canal). Israel. |
Meditate on
that…on God’s commandments and directives.
Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice
of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. But they delight
in the law of the LORD, meditating on it day and night. They are like trees
planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never
wither, and they prosper in all they do. But not the wicked! They are like
worthless chaff, scattered by the wind. They will be condemned at the time of
judgment. Sinners will have no place among the godly. For the LORD watches over
the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction. Psalm 1:1-6
I delight to do Your will, O my God; Your Law is
within my heart." Psalm 40:8
NASB
One of the
most precious, encouraging and comforting verses I have found to share with
others talks about God’s promise to give people the desires of their heart.
Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the
desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4
NASB
Is joy the desire of your heart? Do you
think that would have been a desire in Jesus’ heart?
Prayer
~ Dear Jesus, I am excited daily as I eagerly anticipate Your presence in my
life, Your healing touch, and Your return to take Your church to Your heavenly
home. Thank You.
