Delight Yourself In The Lord
Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.-Psalm 37:4
"From heavenly thoughts all true delight doth spring."- Thomas Campion
There is nothing as satisfying and fulfilling in this world as to find delight in our knowledge, relationship and adventure with God. It holds the most amazing, incredible and unfathomable prospects of blessing, good-will and glad tiding for any man or woman.
That is what the Scriptures mean when they say, no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.- I Cor 2:9
Our pleasure and delight in the Lord can only draw from our undying love, passion and affection for He Who is the lover of our souls- Jesus Christ. There has never been anyone who truely loved and delighted in the Lord that lived to regret it.
The wisest and richest man that ever lived and walked upon the earth in history got there on the platform of his passionate and unparalled love for God.
He loved God so much that his heart gave God all, that he made an incredible sacrifice to God which moved the Lord to pour down an eternal blessing on him.
Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of his father David, .... The king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, ... Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar. In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream at night; and God said, Ask what you wish me to give you.- 1 Kings 3:3-5
