Delight In Him - Psalm 37:4

“Delight yourself in the Lord…” 

The Hebrew word translated “delight” (עָנַג, pronounced aw-nag) literally means to be delicate or feminine(Strong’s, עָנַג.) It carries the idea of being pliable or sensitive. In this particular context, it means to be dependent upon God and to derive one’s pleasure from Him.

"Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart." Psalm 37:4

I believe that eagerly trusting God, living in expectation for what He is going to do for you is a way of delighting in Him. Do you have that kind of faith? Do you truly trust Him?

As you lay your desires at the feet of our Almighty God today, delight in Him. Do so with the confidence that He is God, and yet He wants to give you the desires of your heart. Trust Him to know what is best for you, today.
