Isaiah 61:10 to 62:12 Delighting in God

We can delight in God. It gives us great joy that we are made right with God by trusting in Christ.

Perhaps even more amazing is that God delights in us - in the same way that a young man delights in his new bride. This comes to life in Jesus as he loves the church and lays down his life for her. 

Finally in this text God promises complete security for his saved people. They will no longer be plundered by their enemies. There is a sense that this is true for Christians right away but still we wait for the new Jerusalem to be a complete experience for us.

In response to all God has done and will do we pray - fervently, constantly and with the primary goal that God would be glorified in His people
