Is it possible?',

Back to The Pastor's Morning Visit


"The Lord delights in you." Isaiah 62:4

Is it possible, that such poor, depraved, unworthy creatures—can be the objects of Jehovah's delight? Yes! The infinite love of God has been fixed upon us from eternity! Because He loved us, He sent His only-begotten Son to die for us! He sent His Holy Spirit into our hearts to regenerate us!

Hear the Apostle: "But God, who is rich in mercy, for His GREAT LOVE with which He loved us, even when we were DEAD IN SINS—has made us alive together with Christ: by whose grace you are saved." Jehovah views us in Jesus—and loves us with an infinite love!

"You have loved them—AS You have loved Me!" John 17:23. Yes, He has loved us—just as He has loved Jesus! Every believer, though . . .
his faith may be weak,
his fears many,
his corruptions strong,
his trouble great, and
his temptations sore—is the object of Jehovah's delight!

Let us therefore endeavour to pass through this day, yes, and every day, believing and realizing, "I am Jehovah's delight! I am the object of His highest love! I am the subject of His sweetest thoughts! I am His portion for evermore!"

O incomparable privilege! 
Wondrous source of comfort, holiness, and love! 
You have more cause for gratitude than an angel!
