I have been thinking about how the LORD delights Himself in me. I believe that we all need a really clear understanding of this, and just a new revelation on it. For me it has been one of those things that you know in your head, and have only experienced it when it was most needed; but for me it is something I want to experience every day.
One thing stopping us from this is that we have this false idea that God doesn't like how we do things, so that means He doesn't want to spend time with us, I mean why would He when we are all so messed up. We do not fully understand how greatly He loves us.
He delights in us at our weakest point, and He delights in us when we are extravagantly obedient. He is blessed when we come to Him when we are weak, I mean, isn't that what His mercy, and loving-kindness, and compassion is all about. Grace. His grace allows us to walk in the deep things He is calling us to, even though we are completely and totally weak beings.
I want to know more about His character, and something I realize is that it is something only He can teach me. I love Him, and I want to know Him, so let's run hard after Him together.
One more thing before I end this post.
I feel like the LORD is saying this to me:
"I want a people set apart to me, a people who know me. I desire for you to know my heart, how I feel when I feel it, and what I think when I think it, I will reveal My heart to those who are humble, and to those who are giving up all they are to know me(Amos 3:7). Run as hard as you can to Me, seek Me above all else. You are going to have to be a people of NO compromise, and NO toleration of any evil. I love you and have plans for you, but the only way for you to walk into those plans without hindrance, is to give all for love(Sos 8:6-7)."
Bless you!
