The Desire to be Delighted in

from First15 Devotional · host First15

All of us have insatiable desires that can only be satisfied in communion with our heavenly Father. The desire to be delighted in, for wonder, to behold glory, and to be someone great are driving forces within each of us. The desire to be fully know and fully loved, to be passionate, and to live a life of significance resound within each of us at the foundation of who we are. God created these desires knowing that they can only be fully satisfied in him—that they would be avenues to deeper relationship with him. As we look at each of these desires individually, I pray your heart would find its fulfillment in the loving nearness of your heavenly Father. The main concept for this week is derived from The Seven Longings of the Human Heart by Mike Bickle and Deborah Hiebert. Our Scripture for today comes from Isaiah 62:5, and today's worship is I Love You by Vineyard Worship. This Christmas, find the peace God has waiting for you.

Marathi Aarti Sangrah | मराठी आरती संग्रह Rajshri Entertainment Private Limited Aarti (आरती) is a devotional song sung to show devotion towards a deity and to Glorify a deity. Aarti is sung during Ritual of Aarti, in which flame is offered to deity. Aarti is a Hindi word and it is also spelled Arti, Arati or Arathi. The word Aarti is derived from the Sanskrit word Aratrika (आरात्रिक), which means something that removes darkness. शास्‍त्रों में बताया गया है कि आरती शब्द संस्कृत के आर्तिका शब्द से बना है। जिसका अर्थ है, अरिष्ट, विपत्ति, आपत्ति, कष्ट और क्लेश। भगवान की आरती को नीराजन भी कहा जाता है। नीराजन का अर्थ है किसी स्‍थान को विशेष रूप से प्रकाशित करना। शास्‍त्रों में बताए गए नियमों के अनुसार, आरती के इन्हीं दो अर्थों के आधार पर भगवान की आरती करने के दो कारण बताए गए हैं। MRE Podcast MRE Podcast This is a daily devotional podcast for those who want more of God's Word each day. I read the Word and share my insights from the Word. You might ask why do I do this? In the wilderness, the Israelites had to depend on daily mana from heaven to live. They couldn't eat yesterday's nor keep them for the next day. They always lived on the fresh mana each day. We also need to live by the fresh word of God each day. However, often we skip a meal and live on the past encounters with God. Someone of us gets too busy to eat or someone us do not know how or where to start. We need fresh encounters each day with the Lord so that the love of Christ will overflow to others. That's what I am doing, doing my quiet time and feasting and sharing the food with people. Join the Lord's table with me!
