It's A Delight to Do

I wrote earlier that when we release our will to the Father we will be released from ourselves. In submitting, we are willingly (and rightly) yielding to Him and His Lordship.

Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart – Psalm 34:7.

Delight yourself also in the Lord – expect all your happiness from Him, and seek it in Him. Too many people are unhappy because of unrealistic expectations in life. He will give to you the desires of your heart. The godly man or woman never indulges a desire that he or she cannot speak as a prayer to God.

And whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him – Colossians 3:17.

Whatever you do in word or deed – let your words be right, and your actions upright. It is not possible to sin while considering His name and all that it means. Do all in the name of the Lord Jesus – begin with Him, and end with Him; call upon His name, and pray for His direction and support, in all that you do; and then every work of your hand will be crowned with the success of heaven. Doing every thing in the name of the Lord, and submitting every thing to His glory, is as logical as it is righteous. In yielding to God, you will find forgiveness and freedom. And that, my friends, is a great thing.

I am looking forward to heading north to Industry this Sunday to preach for Pastor Jon. Thanks for your prayers.
