Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Psalm 37:3-4
The Bible says, “Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.”(Proverbs 3:13) As a child of God, we must always come to God’s word for true wisdom for our lives. One will find wisdom where wisdom lives, and in doing so they will gain understanding. The Bible will lead us by its God-breathed instructions (2 Timothy 3:16). We will both find wisdom and understanding as the Holy Spirit illuminates God’s truth, these will not only impact our lives, but the lives of those around us.
What powerful words to live by. When we trust in the Lord, we will continue on His path and in His will for our lives. As we continue to trust, we will do good because we will be following Him. The sure path of obedience will lead to good. I find it interesting that we will plan a week or a day around the trust we put into a weather man or woman who really can’t guarantee for certain what a day might bring. We need to take heed of David’s words, and as we do, we will feed on God’s faithfulness. The good shepherd will look after us. Psalm 23:1 is a wonderful reminder of God’s faithfulness, “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” The evildoer will trust in himself, and, in turn, they will find a hard way that resembles not the one who trusts and follows the Lord.
When the Lord becomes our delight, His delights will become our delights, and that is how we get the delights of our hearts. After I was saved, God began a powerful work in my life. There was a change in those things I once delighted in, and that change came through the Holy Spirit working in my heart, (John 16:7-8) and God’s word shaping and teaching me true delight. David says, “Delight thyself also in the Lord.” It starts with us and it is an action we must desire to initiate.
