The Alphabet: The Letter D (Chinese/English)

Psalm 37:4 – Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

诗篇 37章 -要以耶和华为乐，他就将你心里所求的赐给你。

These are some of the greatest verses in the whole bible, they have words such as commit and trust, but right in the middle is this verse, which has the word delight.

这些是整本圣经中最伟大的经文之一，它们包含了诸如托付和信靠等词语，但在中间正是这节经文，其中含有“以耶和华为乐”这个词语。

We should commit everything to God, we should trust fully in him, but do we truly delight in him.

我们应该将一切都交托给上帝，我们应该完全信靠他，但我们是否真正以他为乐呢？

Do we delight in His beauty?

我们是否以他的美丽为乐？

Do we delight in His love?

我们是否以他的爱为乐?

Do we delight in His awesomeness?

我们是否以他的威严为乐？

To do this means to take pleasure in, we look at the following verses:

要做到这几点意味着要从中得到快乐，我们来看看以下经文：

Psalm 43 4-Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.

诗篇 43章 4-我要到神的祭坛，到我最喜乐的上帝那里，我要弹琴称赞你，神啊，我的神！

Psalm 90:17 -And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.

诗篇 90章 17 愿我们神耶和华的荣美，归于我们身上。愿你坚立我们手所作的工，我们手所作的工坚立吧！

Psalm 29 :2 -Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

诗篇 29章2-要将颂赞归给耶和华，要以圣洁的妆饰敬拜耶和华。

God and him alone, should be our hearts delight, the true heart, will want nothing but God, everything else is a bonus.

上帝，仅有上帝，应该是我们心中的乐趣，真正的心灵只会渴求上帝，其他一切都只是额外的。

If we truly delight in God, we will have our true hears desire, which is HIM.

如果我们真正以上帝为乐，我们就会得到我们真正的心愿，那就是祂。

What does your heart truly delight in? If it is God alone, then we will have our hearts desire.

你的心真正喜悦的是什么？如果只有上帝，那么我们就会得到我们心的愿望。

Jesus says as much- in –Matthew 6:33-” But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

耶稣在马太福音6章中也说到：33 你们要先求他的国和他的义，这些东西都要加给你们了。

Seek God, delight in him, make him your first priority and everything will follow.

寻求上帝，以他为乐，让他成为你的首要任务，一切都会随之而来。

We serve and do things for God, but do we ever take time to delight in him, to dwell in his majesty, to be quiet before him.

我们为上帝服务，做事情，但我们是否曾经花时间来以他为乐，来沉浸在他的威严中，默默地在他面前。

Take time to just be completely silent, before God, that would mean turning off all electronic devices and social media. “Oh no!”-say some people.

花些时间完全保持沉默，在上帝面前，这意味着关闭所有电子设备和社交媒体…噢，有些人会说。

God wants us to delight in Him, because in doing that our deepest desires of our hearts can be satisfied and the One who can satisfy is God Himself.

上帝希望我们以他为乐，因为通过这样做，我们心中最深的渴望才能得到满足，而能满足我们的只有上帝自己。

God bless you
