Take Joy My King…….

I love you Lord, and I lift my voice,

To worship you, Oh my soul rejoice;

Take joy my King, In what you hear,

Let it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ears.

This little verse is rolling around in my spirit this morning.  There are many places in the Word where the Lord expresses His heart’s desire.  He wants intimacy. He longs for relationship. He wants us, His children, to communicate with Him.  Communication is a flow of dialogue one to another.  It comes easily, is smooth off the tongue, not disguised with motive or agenda.  It is thoughts from the heart one to another. When we come to that point in our relationship with our heavenly Father, Abba, we ascend into a fresh, new realm in the spirit.  The role playing, the positioning for an advantage, the games we play as humans one with another are all gone and we are open and transparent before the One who created us.  We, then, are able to enter into His rest, at peace with who He is and who we are.

May we, too, have a deep longing to have this type of relationship with Him,  our Lord and Savior, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Three in One.  There will forever be joy unspeakable and our hearts will be full of glory and gladness for we will have truly found that One our hearts desire.  Then we will enter into, and truly comprehend,  the joy of the Lord.  When He is our All, our Everything, our First Love .

Have we not all, at one time or another, longed to have a real, heart felt, honest conversation with someone?  God always takes these moments to speak to me about what He wants from me.  He wants the same and His heart is pierced, as ours is, when we don’t communicate with Him.  To truly know Him.

Take joy my King, in what you hear, may it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ears.
