Last week we looked into God’s word about finding our happiness in Him. This week we will discover what God’s word has to say about God’s delight and happiness. God’s chief end is to glorify Himself and enjoy Himself forever. Even though God is a self exalting God we will look at how his love for promoting and preserving His own glory comes full circle back to loving us.

God wants all of us to be happy, but not apart from Him. The Bible instructs us to delight ourselves in Him. Happiness and true joy are not separate from God. There is an old saying that tells us, “The chief end of man is to glorify God AND enjoy Him forever.” The emphasis is on the “AND”. These two things are not and should not be estranged from one another. We are supposed to seek and pursue happiness but only in God. It is not bad to desire our own good. In fact, the great problem of people everywhere today is that we are to easily pleased. The only way to triumph over sin long-term, is to gain a distaste for it because of a superior satisfaction in God.

Sometimes in life, we compare our lives to others and lose focus and frustrate ourselves. The devil would love for us to get off track and focused on things that do not matter in this life. We sometimes allow small and meaningless things to throw us off course and create an internal struggle. Yes, we will face adversity and trying times in life but when things come to test our beliefs we need to get refocused on what God wants.
