Psalms 37:4 - Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.Psalms 37:3-6
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
The word 'delight' used here is a very tone down translation of the Hebrew word 'anag' it means to dedicate or to make habit of, other than to make merry.
Just making merry in the Lord will not get us the desires of our heart. For this we need to first trust in God be good and make God a habit or dedicate ourselves to Him. This understanding goes well with the other scriptures.
Having a habit is getting into something so much that without knowing we still do it. It is something that goes beyond your mind into our spirit. So we need to make the Lord a part of us not only when we think of Him but even when we are not mentally alert of Him. This can happen only when we make God the top priority in our lives.
AMEN
