Because He Delights In You…

He reached down from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep waters. He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me. They confronted me in the day of my disaster, but the Lord was my support. He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.
Psalm 18:16-19

What are your deep waters? What enemy is around you that seems too powerful to overcome? What disaster do you find yourself in?

Whatever you’re in, have you considered that God will rescue you because he delights in you? Check out that last verse (19) of that section… “he rescued me because he delighted in me”. It doesn’t have anything to do with what has been done. We can’t muster up anything within us that would cause God to finally be pleased enough to move for us. He just does because he delights in us.

So- for your deep waters and the enemy that you face- consider calling on the Lord knowing that it’s not what you do, but it’s who you are that will bring you out of it. You are found in Christ and he truly does delight in you and me.
