TRUST + DELIGHT + COMMIT = HE WILL ACT

Psalm 37 comes about as close to a formula as Scripture gets: trust, delight, commit — and He will act. In this episode, Blake opens Psalm 37:3-5 and walks through the three, while guarding against the trap of turning them into a lever we pull to make God move.Along the way, Blake shares the strange grace of praying for something so long that one day you realize you're already standing in the middle of the answer; what it really means to “delight” (and how that reshapes the desires of your heart); and what “commit your way” actually pictures — rolling your path and burdens onto the Lord. The heart of it: this isn't a performance that earns God's action, but a posture that anchors us in Him, so that whether or not we notice, He is already at work.Follow Before the Lord on Facebook (@BeforeTheLord) and Instagram (@beforethelorddevo).
