(Psa 1:2-3 NKJV) But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night. {3} He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.
How often do we find ourselves running to the Word of God because we are in trouble?
If we want to get through our times of trouble we must spend time in the Word of God on a consistent basis. This is what builds us and prepares us, so that when things come our way God’s Word has already built up a shield within us to protect us.
To delight means to take great pleasure, to give keen enjoyment.
When we delight in anything it means we enjoy it. If we find something that we delight in, we want to do it over and over again. I remember when our children were young and we took them to a theme park they would find this one ride they would love and would want to keep going back to. They would beg us; “mommy, daddy, oh can we please…just one more time!?” When we delight in something we want more of it; it brings us great pleasure!!
Spending time in the Word of God should be enjoyable. The more we realize that the Word has everything we need to get through this life, the more we will delight in it!
It is not just for Pastors, but for us all to pick up and read as much as we can.
As we learn God’s Word through reading it and meditating on it… we shall prosper in all areas of our lives. Now, isn’t that delightful?
