You have a part in God's perfect plan. He has chosen you to be adopted as his delightful child through your union with Jesus. His plan is your deliverance and salvation, to lavish you with His love and grace. The blood of Jesus paid the penalty for your sin and resulted in your forgiveness and complete pardon. With this grace and love, He gives you wisdom and practical insight into His will and purpose for your life. By accepting this grace and love, you bring him great pleasure. Without you, our family would be incomplete and God's pleasure not full. So I want to thank you for accepting Jesus and His plan. I add my voice to Paul's as we pray for you. I don't stop thanking God for you—every time I pray, I think of you and give thanks. But I do more than thank, I ask—ask the God of our Master, Jesus Christ, the God of glory—to make you intelligent and discerning in knowing him personally, your eyes focused and clear so that...

I believe the prayer Moses prayed In Psalms 90 should be our prayer. 12 Help us to remember that our days are numbered , and help us to interpret our lives correctly. Set your wisdom deeply in our hearts so that we may accept your correction. 13 Return to us again, O God! How much longer will it take until you show us your abundant compassion? 14 Let the sunrise of your love end our dark night. Break through our clouded dawn again! Only you can satisfy our hearts, filling us with songs of joy to the end of our days. 15 We’ve been overwhelmed with grief; come now and overwhelm us with gladness. Replace our years of trouble with decades of delight. 16 Let us see your miracles again, and let the rising generation see the glorious wonders you’re famous for. 17 O Lord our God, let your sweet beauty rest upon us and give us favor. Come work with us, and then our ...

The word for delight used here is the Hebrew word rō·w·ṣeh which means to be pleased with; specifically, to satisfy a debt -- (be) accept(-able), accomplish, set affection, approve, consent with, delight (self), enjoy, (be, have a) favor(-able), like, observe, pardon, (be, have, take) please(-ure), reconcile self When you accepted Jesus, you went from just being plain folk to one who delighted God so much that he decorates you with salvation garland! When I picture that in my mind, I see the garland like the leis they put around your neck in Hawaii. That garland is made from flowers, but your salvation garland is made from everything Jesus made available for you at the cross. Its flowers are righteousness, wisdom, love, joy, peace, healing, prosperity, and every favor and earthly blessing. I see God laughing as He puts one lei garland around your neck after another until you are covered in His delight. All I can see is blessing after blessing that has bee...

God delights in showing us mercy and loving kindness. He takes extreme pleasure in doing so. The Message Translation shows us what this looks like. Micha 7:18-20 Where is the god who can compare with you— wiping the slate clean of guilt, Turning a blind eye, a deaf ear, to the past sins of your purged and precious people? You don’t nurse your anger and don’t stay angry long, for mercy is your specialty. That’s what you love most. And compassion is on its way to us. You’ll stamp out our wrongdoing. You’ll sink our sins to the bottom of the ocean. You’ll stay true to your word to Father Jacob and continue the compassion you showed Grandfather Abraham— Everything you promised our ancestors from a long time ago. Mercy is compassion or forgiveness shown toward you when it is in God's power to punish or harm. It is a blessing ...

As for the saints who are on the earth, “They are the excellent ones, in whom is all my delight.” NKJV So I said to the Lord God, “You are my Maker, my Mediator, and my Master. Any good thing you find in me has come from you.” And he said to me , “My holy lovers are wonderful, my majestic ones, my glorious ones, fulfilling all my desires.” TPT When you accepted Jesus, you became an excellent one who God delights in. You are created to fulfill all His desires. Can you wrap your head around that? By becoming His holy lover, you are giving Him great pleasure, and a way for Him to fulfill His desires. But what does it mean to be a holy lover? To be a holy lover is to choose to be one. It takes a commitment of time and energy to become intimate with God. To be a holy lover is to walk with the Lord every minute of every day. Everything you do will draw you closer to him or put up stumbling bloc...
