Joyful listeners

 

And the large crowd listened to Him with delight." - Mark 12:37

Blessed are those who listen to Jesus with delight, because it is the work of God's grace. There are people who do not listen to Jesus, and there are people who do not listen with delight, but with indifference, reluctance, or criticism.

If someone listens to Jesus with delight, then their mind is occupied with His Word; there is a longing in their heart for God's Word. That person is seeking the things above; they know about the renewing, sanctifying power of God's Word.

Blessed are those who joyfully listen to both the promises and commandments of Jesus and pray to receive the promises and obey the commandments.

If Jesus is my joy, I will hear His words with delight.
