LOVE, is Delightful.

LOVE, is Delightful.

Delighting in the Lord means finding supreme joy, satisfaction, and pleasure in God's person rather than just His blessings, as described in Psalm 37:4. It involves cultivating an intimate, relational, and obedient life through worship, studying Scripture, prayer, and, in many cases, aligning one's desires with His, leading to deeper contentment.l

Key Aspects of Delighting in the Lord
  • Definition: To take pleasure in God, appreciating His character, beauty, and sovereignty.
  • Psalm 37:4 Context: It is not a transactional formula, but a command to find joy in Him, which aligns one's desires with His.
  • Indicators: High praise, submission to Jesus, and passion for God.

Ways to Practice Delight
  • Worship and Prayer: Engaging in musical worship and praying with open, surrendered hands.
  • Scripture: Studying and meditating on God’s Word.
  • Spiritual Disciplines: Fasting, serving others, and resting in His presence.
  • Gratitude: Thanking God for His works and recognizing Him as Creator.

Benefits
  • Contentment: Experiencing a deep sense of satisfaction.
  • Realigned Desires: Your desires naturally become the same as God's, leading to answered prayer.
  • Freedom: Releasing toxic, selfish desires.
According to Desiring God, it means savoring God’s attributes, particularly as revealed in Christ.

“Trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) in the Lord and do good; so shall you dwell in the land and feed surely on His faithfulness, and truly you shall be fed. Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He will give you the desires and secret petitions of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord [roll and repose each care of your load on Him]; trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) also in Him and He will bring it to pass. And He will make your uprightness and right standing with God go forth as the light, and your justice and right as [the shining sun of] the noonday.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭37‬:‭3‬-‭6‬ ‭AMPC‬‬
