His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of a man; the LORD delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love. (Psalm 147:10-11 NIV)
God’s delight or pleasure is not in the mighty, the noble, the majestic or beautiful things. It’s not physical or material greatness, wealth or power that God (Jehovah) favors. It’s not the strong and athletic who do great deeds or possess physical beauty and prowess that please Jehovah.
His delight or pleasure is simply in those who are humble, who reverence and respect Him, those who have placed their trust in His unfailing love.
Put your trust in His unfailing love.
Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or tremble at them, for the LORD your God is the one who goes with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. (Deuteronomy 31:6 NIV)
Let your conduct be without covetousness, and be content with such things that you have, for he has said, I will never leave you, nor forsake you, so that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do to me. (Hebrews 13:5-6)
God NEVER leaves you. He NEVER forsakes you. EVER!
That is why it is impossible for a child of God to be alone! You alone? Impossible! He loves you too much, and His love is unfailing. You can trust God. I promise you, you will not be disappointed.
What shall we then say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He that didn't spare his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, will he not also give us, with him, all things freely? Who shall bring an accusation against the elect of God? It is God who justifies. Who is he that condemns? It is Christ who died, but, more than that, is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also intercedes for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? It is written, For your sake we are killed all the day long, we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. But in all these things we more than overcome through him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to be, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:31-39)
Consider this translation…
I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from his love. Death can't, and life can't. The angels can't, and the demons can't. Our fears for today, our worries about tomorrow, and even the powers of hell can't keep God's love away. Whether we are high above the sky or in the deepest ocean, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:38-39)
Nothing can separate you from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord! Nothing!
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)
No one outgives God in the love department! For He so loved YOU that He gave!
He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. (1John4:8)
God is LOVE! His love is unfailing!
Notes:
Psalm 136:4
to him who alone does great wonders, His love endures forever.
Psalm 136 is about God’s enduring love.
God's word is medicine for the flesh. God bless!
PROVERBS 4:20-23 NKJ
My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart; For they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh. Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life.
