1. The Lord Himself. “Then shalt thou delight thyself in the Lord” (Isa. 58:14). Note the “then” of the soul’s condition in the previous verse, which makes the delighting in the Lord possible.
2. The Lord’s Will. “I delight to do Thy will, 0 my God” (Psa. 40:8). Christ is our Example, for imitation, and our Empowerer for inspiration in doing God’s will.
3. The Lord’s Word. “Thy testimonies also are my delight” (Psa. 119:24, 35). To delight in God’s Word is a sign of healthy spiritual life—Psa. 1:2.
4. The Lord’s Abundance. “The meek shall inherit the earth, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace” (Psa. 37:11). The Lord not only favours us with His pardon, but He also feasts us with His promises.
5. The Lord’s Protection. “I sat down under His shadow with great delight” (Cant. 2:3). The shadow of Christ’s atonement is the protection which shields from God’s wrath.
6. The Lord’s Acquaintance. “Then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty.” The good of blessing all comes through being acquainted with Him—Job. 22:21–30.
I HOPE YOU FOUND THIS TO BE A GOOD REFRESHER.
