the Mighty Warrior who saves.
He will take great delight in you;
in his love he will no longer rebuke you,
but will rejoice over you with singing.
This is one of my all time favorite verses! Check it out in context here. Or in the AMP version here!
Take a moment and really think about this promise here. God takes great delight in YOU!He is rejoicing over YOU. He is singing over YOU. Do you really understand this?? We all "know" God loves us, but do you really, really believe this deep down in your heart? Do you believe this is specifically true about you or only others? Ask the Holy Spirit to give you deeper revelation of His heart for you. Ask Him for a glimpse of His smiling down at you and delighting in you!
Ask Him to help you fully, truly believe this. Although...you'll actually never be able to fully comprehend His love because Ephesians 3:16-19 tells us this:
I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.
Some of you may remember the songs from my CD this past spring. Well, I'm working on another one! Almost every song on there is written from God's perspective. Check these out and ask Jesus to help you believe that those words are being sung over you! :)
