Psalm 45:6-7 (NASB)
6 Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; A scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Your kingdom.
7 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; Therefore God, Your God, has anointed You With the oil of joy above Your fellows.

We do not truly honor God by merely obeying Him. We glorify Him the most when we enjoy Him fully.

How do we enjoy Him fully?

It begins by developing a relationship with Him that He started within us. It comes in sacred moments, where we are aware of our deep need for God. Without constant communication, we become unconscious of our deepest needs, we become accustomed to things the way they are and resistant to the holy path that He wants us to follow. When we become aware, that is when answers come and guidance is given.

It is easy to fall into a rote cycle of prayer. We pray for that which we already own through Christ, yet it is neglected and unused. Sometimes we resist the Spirit and pray for things that can never be ours. And sometimes we pray for that which we must do ourselves through faith.

Praise God that He wants us to enjoy Him forever. As you pray this week, remember the joy that is yours through Christ Jesus.

Come and pray with us on Tuesday night at 7pm. It will bring you joy and it will honor God.

Always praying for the glory of God,
