Not to damper the party, but God also makes it clear there are things He HATES, or does not delight in. Why does this matter as we think about JOY? By contrast, He makes clear things that steal joy.
1. God hates "going through the motions" without a sincere heart. (Psalm 51:16-19)
2. God does not delight in human strength (Psalm 147:10)
3. God hates a liar (but delights in those who speak truth) (Proverbs 12:22)
4. God takes no pleasure in fools who don't do what they have vowed (Ecclesiastes 5:4)
5. God hates those who pursue fortune but do not worship or respond to Him (Isaiah 65:11)
Which of these most impacts your thoughts about God?
