RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY MONDAY 15TH JULY 2024.

The psalmist in the opening verse uncovers a profound truth that transcends mere religious rhetoric. It’s a revelation that speaks at the very heart of our relationship with God. Observe that it doesn’t say “For the LORD taketh pleasure in the beauties of heaven or His holy angels,” no! It says, “For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people…” (Psalm 149:4).

It means God delights in you. He likes you! Pause for a moment and ponder those words. This isn’t merely about God loving us, even though that truth is monumental in itself. This is something more personal, more intimate— God delights in YOU.

Someone might think, “Pastor Chris, how can He take pleasure in me? I smoked last night; I told a lie last week.” Irrespective of what you’ve done, the Bible tells us that the Lord takes pleasure in His people, and that includes you!

Now that you know how much He loves and delights in you, live right and do the things that please Him. That’s why He gave you His nature of righteousness so that without struggle you can live a righteous life.

Every so often, contemplate the depth of God’s favourable disposition towards you; think deeply on it. It’ll change your outlook on life. You’ll see yourself differently. Every aspect of your life—your work, relationships, aspirations—will take on a new meaning.

Now, if God likes you, it must mean He cares about where you are, what you do, where you live and work, who your friends are—everything about you! Can you see why He tells you in Matthew 6:25 NIV, “…do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear ”

He doesn’t want you agitated about anything because you’re His beloved and He knows how to take care of His own. Instead of having anxiety about anything, He says, “Cast them on me because I care for you” (1 Peter 5:7). See how much He takes pleasure in you—His favourite.

PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for your gracious and loving disposition towards me. Thank you for making me your favourite; I am divinely favoured everywhere I go because you’ve beautified my life with your grace and embraced me with your loving-kindness. I thank you, Lord, for your personal love for me, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
