Psalm 37 (Part 4): Delight in Abundant Peace

In part one of my meditation on Psalm 37, King David told me to not fret about those who do evil because they will perish. In part two, he told me to instead trust in the Lord and do good. Part three reminded me that God does in fact care for the righteous and brings justice. Now to my fourth and final meditation on this rich psalm. David delineates what I can look forward to when I live as the righteous person he has declared me to be, and trust in him as the God who cares for me.

Psalm 37 (Part 2): Trust in the Lord and Do Good

In part one of my study of Psalm 37, King David tells me not to fret, get worked up, or envious when evil people seem to succeed because they will certainly perish. Rather than fret, explode in anger, and do something evil,ย David tells me what I can and should do insteadโ€”trust in the Lord and do good.

Delighting in God

Psalm 37:4 says "Delight yourself in the Lord." What does that mean? How do I do that? What would it look like to delight in God today?
