Delighted in God | Watch | Derek Prince Ministries

“Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.” (Psalm 37:4 NIV)

Notice that first word: “Delight yourself.” I heard someone once ask this question of a group of people: “Do you enjoy your religion, or do you endure it?” I think that to the majority of people religion is something to endure. It’s a kind of painful duty that they have to go through with, but that’s not the way God wants us to experience Him. He doesn’t want us to endure Him; He wants us to enjoy Him.

The Westminster Confession, which is the basic doctrinal statement of the Presbyterian Church, says this: “The supreme duty of man is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever.” Have you ever thought of enjoying God? God says, “Delight yourself in Me and I will give you the desires of your heart.” That doesn’t mean simply that God will do for us everything we might wish or think. It means that He’ll put in us new desires – godly desires, beneficial desires, the kind of desires that God has Himself. And then He’ll satisfy those desires because He’s put them there in our heart in the first place. And all that comes when we delight ourselves in the Lord. When we find real joy and pleasure and satisfaction in our personal relationship with the Lord. Then out of that comes that blessed peace that He will put into our hearts – those desires which He Himself has and which He wants to share with us, desires that are beneficial in their fulfillment. [End of Derek’s message].

 Moving On

On The day of my encounter with God: The Holy Trinity, February 27, 2016, God spoke those words to me, that He would “give me the desires of my heart”.

Throughout my walk with God, I have come to understand that God truly wants us to delight in being in His presence; and my desire is for the 2nd Advent of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and for God’s Kingdom to be here in the earth as it is in Heaven.

Unequivocally, I delight in the Lord’s presence each and every day since getting to know Him intimately, even in the midst of the trials and tribulations and testing’s.

God’s Will is to prepare us for the eternal life, because this world we live in today is temporal.

Dearly Beloved’s I pray that you too will seek an intimate relationship with God: The Holy Trinity and that you will be “Delighted in God”. In Jesus name. Hallelujah!!!
