Psalm 37:4 – Today’s Verse for March 12, 2025 Wednesday

“Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.“
— Psalm 37:4 KJV

Reflection on Today's Verse

This verse sounds simple, but it holds a deep truth. God isn’t saying, “I’ll give you whatever you want.” He’s saying, “Make Me your joy, and I will shape your desires.”

When we love God more than anything, our hearts start to change. We want different things. We stop chasing what the world says will make us happy—money, success, approval. Instead, we want more of Him. We long for His peace, His guidance, His love. And He gives us those things in full.

God isn’t a vending machine. He’s a Father who knows what’s best. When we trust Him, we stop worrying about what we don’t have. We rest, knowing He is good.

So, delight in Him. Spend time in His Word. Talk to Him. Worship Him. Make Him your greatest treasure. When you do, you’ll find that your heart is full—not because you got what you thought you wanted, but because you got more of Him. And that’s better than anything.

Personal Prayer

Father, You are my greatest joy. Help me to love You more than anything else. Teach my heart to desire what You desire. Change me from the inside out.

I confess that sometimes I chase things that won’t satisfy. I look for happiness in the world instead of in You. But I know only You can truly fill me. Draw me closer. Let my delight be in You alone.

I trust You with my heart. I trust You with my future. Shape my desires so they align with Your will. Give me peace in knowing that whatever You give is always good.

Thank You for loving me so completely. Thank You for being all I need.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
