Delight in the Lord "Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart." Ps. 37:4 DELIGHT YOURSELF, not deprive yourself or degrade yourself or downcast yourself but "have a good time" IN THE LORD. What a delight It is a delight, sheer ecstasy, to win someone to Christ and see them born of God right before your eyes. It is a delight to read the Word of God and see God open a very precious and eternal truth to you. It is a delight to preach or teach and see people transformed into a radiant Christian. It is a delight to go to Church and hear the Word of God proclaimed and your heart stirred to love Jesus more and be filled with joy. David said, "I desire to do your will, O my God; your law is within my heart" Ps. 40:8. What a wonderful way to get what you crave and live a fruitful and fulfilling life. "We write this to make our joy complete" 1 John 1:4. YOU, full of joy! God does not want us to have a dreary life filled with drudgery and discouragement. He tells about having "fullness of joy." John 16:15, Psalm 16:11. It is one thing to have fleshly fun and another to have fullness of joy for "the joy of the Lord is your strength" Neh. 8:10. At The Least, ATL, memorize "because you said so, I will" Lk 5:5. ATL "encourage one another daily" Heb 3:13 ATL "You do not have, because you do not ask God" James 4:2. ATL "Follow me and I will make you fishers of men" Matt. 4:19 Cut these out, paste, type, print or write them on the back of a business card, to carry with you, memorize and repeat every day for 7 weeks. Then drop these and add 2 more.YOU CAN DO IT. O dear people, memorize these verses and live a life full of them. all because of Calvary, sumner. Make you time with the Lord a joy by filling your every thought with his scriptures, and with prayer. | |||||
