" Delight yourself in the Lord,’ is the key to understanding the passage. “If we’ll only do that, God will give us the desires of our heart, because our desires will be in line with what He wants for us. In other words, instead of focusing on self-centered passions and desires, the things we want will be the very things God wants for us. I had it all backwards... “Jeremiah seventeen, nine, another verse I never heard you preach on, says the human heart is wickedly evil, which means our desires apart from God are worldly, temporal, and definitely not from above?
