God Delights in Us // Micah

Psalm 149:4 presents us with a staggering revelation. It tells us that “...the Lord takes DELIGHT in His people...” Delight, “raw-tsar” in Hebrew, translates as "one who accepts, takes pleasure in or finds another favorable." The Lord and Master of heaven and earth and all that is in them has fixed His affection on His children and finds them pleasing and enjoyable. What wonder! If you have become a child of God by repenting of your sins and trusting in the grace of God through Jesus Christ than your Heavenly Father is not simply appeased, He actively and affectionately delights in you. That thought alone, if fully lodged into the heart and mind, has the most profound effect on the whole of a man. -Musings

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11
