The basic faith that we should cherish is that we are His people. Just like fathers feel proud and have joy in having children, our Heavenly Father, whose fatherly love is incomprehensible, extends great love and is absolutely delighted with His people, as the Psalmist proudly sings: “For the Lord takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with victory.” (Ps 149:4) Hence, the attitude that we should wear is that of humility, so that He can crown us with victory. When the Lord places the crown that is kept for us, then there is no greater joy beyond that. 

Abba, thank You for taking delight in us, Your people. Let Your Spirit help us remain humble and receive the crown of victory. In Jesus’ Most Powerful Name, Amen.
