Some of my favorite verses:
Trust in the Lord, and do good;
Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness,
Delight yourself also in the Lord,
And He shall give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him,
And He shall bring it to pass.
He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light,
And your justice as the noonday.
Psalm 37:3-6
Too often we read these verses and just look at what God will do for us. Insted we should see the qualifiers. God gives you the desires of your heart, when? When you delight yourself in the Lord. When you spend time with Him regularly. When you are saturated in His Word. That is the time your desires and God's desires for you match up. |
