“In the multitude of my [anxious] thoughts within me, Your comforts cheer and delight my soul!” (Psalm 94:19).
Time and again, we are bombarded by anxious thoughts. These negative thoughts attack our faith, hopes and dreams; then attempt to steal our contentment and send us spiraling into restlessness and fear. Even though there are many legitimate sources that create anxiety in this world, such as: children, family, finances, politics, friends, enemies, health- and the list can go on and on- our comforting God longs to reveal His Presence and push back anxiety through the power of His unfailing love towards us.
For God’s children, whenever our doubts and fears seem to be out of control, we must look to our Faithful Lord Yehweh to find revelation and relief to counteract our anxious thoughts. When we discover the soothing comfort of His Presence, His Spirit will calm us down, and overwhelm us with delight! God does not send anxiety- He wants us to experience His “Peace that passes understanding,” as we humble ourselves, and understand how desperately we need to experience the love of God!
Lord Yehweh longs to transport us to a spiritual place where we can be consoled, soothed, and comforted by the knowledge and reality of His steadfast faithfulness and unconditional love. There is no delight on earth that can compare with the comfort of God’s love and the joy and pleasure He provides to cheer and delight our soul!
