Today’s Scripture: You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for you have created all things, and for your pleasure they are and were created. Revelation 4:11 NKJ
How wonderful, how marvelous it is to know that the LORD loves me and created me for His pleasure. O how I want to live as God’s pleasure. The Spirit of God is amazing and makes Himself known to us.
Are you listening to the Spirit? Have you heard the Spirit? I have. Just this morning before the light of the LORD I was encouraged to capture this thought: I was created for the pleasure of God. I am God’s pleasure and so are you.
In the silence and honor of falling before His throne I am able to continually say holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, who is and who is to come and He loves me. He loves me and I am His pleasure.
Do you live as you know you are the pleasure of God? Are you still long enough to hear what the Spirit says?
Today’s Prayer: Holy, holy, holy are You Lord God Almighty, who was, who is and is to come. I praise Your name and I hear Your Spirit. Help me to remember what I have received and heard. Thank You for the pleasure found in Your Spirit and for placing Your pleasure in me. Amen

Reminds me of Chariots of Fire: “when I run I feel God’s pleasure.”
Hello Bill, yes I can relate to that:) When I am running through the hiking trails I feel God’s pleasure. I am thinking whenever we do anything and we are doing it with Him we feel His pleasure. Blessings as you run with Him today:) And thanks for stopping by!
