Delight yourself in the LORD, And He will give you the desires and petitions of your heart. (Psalm 37:4) May the Lord grant all your petition's. (Psalm 20:5)
Entrust your ways to the LORD. Trust him, and he will act [on your behalf]. (Psalm 37:5) The more time you spend with God—seeking Him and obeying His Word—the more certain you will be that your heart's desires match His will.
The steps of a man [are] from YHWH, They have been prepared, And He desires his way. (Psalm 37:23)
The LORD will give you according to your heart and he will fulfill according to all your counsel. (Psalm 20:4) This is the [remarkable degree of] confidence which we [as believers are entitled to] have before Him: that if we ask anything according to His will, [that is, consistent with His plan and purpose] He hears us. And if we know [for a fact, as indeed we do] that He hears and listens to us in whatever we ask, we [also] know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted to us] the requests which we have asked from Him. (1John 5:14)
But Mary kept all these words, pondering them in her heart. (Luke 2:19) For out of His fullness [the superabundance of His grace and truth] we have all received grace upon grace [spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing, favor upon favor, and gift heaped upon gift]. (John 1:16)
