The words, ‘most blessed’, declare the state of happiness which comes when God bestows his favor on those He loves. In this verse, the psalmist shares with us the great joy and blessing he has received while living a life of obedience to God. Simply being in the presence of God gives David great joy!
Katharine Purvis, a music teacher in Pennsylvania during the late 1800s, penned similar thoughts in her hymn A Joy In My Heart:
There’s a joy in my heart that shall ever abide
‘Tis a joy to the world that unknown;
For in undying love Jesus came seeking me,
And He bro’t me again to His own.
O the sweet and precious joy He gives,
As I walk by His side day by day,
In my heart the blessed Saviour lives,
And His love brightens all the way.
Friend, we pray that you, too, are blessed with the incredible joy which the Lord gives to those who are His followers. What sweet and precious joy it is! May we always have a song in our heart, for His love really does brighten our way!
