God Delights in You

Verse of the Day: Jeremiah 32:41 NKJV

“Yes, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will assuredly plant them in this land, with all My heart and with all My soul.”

It is a great comfort for believers to know that God takes delight in us, His children. Though we may struggle with our imperfections and often feel unworthy of such love, God still rejoices over us with gladness. We might not understand why, especially when we are weighed down by our sins or shortcomings. However, just as a bridegroom delights in his bride, God takes pleasure in those He has redeemed. While the heavens and angels declare His glory, it is humanity—redeemed through Jesus—that brings God the greatest joy. He rejoices not over creation or even angels in this way, but over us, broken and made whole by His grace.

Scripture tells us that God rejoices over His people with singing, expressing His love in the most tender and joyful way. This unimaginable truth should fill us with gratitude, inspiring us to respond in joyful praise. As God delights in us, we too can find our deepest joy in Him, the One who loves us beyond measure and rejoices over us with songs of love.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your unending love and delight in me, even when I feel unworthy. Help me to rest in the truth that You rejoice over me. Fill my heart with gratitude and joy, so that I may respond in praise and love, rejoicing in You, my salvation.
