God's Delight!

 January 5, 2018

Devotions:

        “For the Lord taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.” ‭Psalms‬ ‭149:4‬ ‭KJV‬‬

        “Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.” Revelation‬ ‭4:11‬ ‭KJV‬

    God's greatest pleasure is for His children to believe in Him and to believe in the great love that He has for them. To believe in Him is to walk in the abundant provision that He has made for us in Christ Jesus.

    To believe God is to also believe that He has the best in mind for us even when what He ask us to do does not seem in our best interest. 

    God takes pleasure in His people and as we are totally yielded and dependent upon Him for everything in life and beyond we walk in His pleasure. When we are not totally yielded His goodness and pleasure are still there but we do not believe in it and do not appropriate it. We walk in Satan's lies that God really does not love us not takes pleasure in us. He knows how bad we are and takes pleasure in us!
