Psalm 37:3-9
3 Trust in the LORD and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4 Delight yourself in the LORD
and He will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the LORD;
trust in Him and he will do this:
6 He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn,
the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.
7 Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for Him;
do not fret when men succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.
8 Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
do not fret — it leads only to evil.
9 For evil men will be cut off,
but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the land.
NIV
[Editor's comment: One of the many things my departed daughter, Stephanie Ellen Morgan, taught me was to GIVE VOICE TO THE WORD OF GOD. When we speak out loud the Word of God that we read in the Bible, God's Holy Word, it gives God the opportunity to fulfill His Word that never changes.
What do you need? Do you desire it? Do you believe God can give it to you? The Bible declares that without faith it is impossible to please God. We must believe that He exists and that He is the rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
By faith in God make a claim for what you desire. Whatever you need God is able and wants to fulfill in your life. David wrote that God will never withhold any good thing from them who walk uprightly (Psalm 84:11),
O LORD Almighty,
blessed is the man who trusts in You.
