In Due Time


The salvation of the righteous will be the Lord's doing. He will help them to do their duties, to bear their burdens; help them to bear their troubles well, and, in due time, will deliver them out of their troubles. Seek and trust Him, and Him only, for help and deliverance.

Be patient - God wants us to trust Him and to keep trusting Him in and out of season. And being patient is how we show God that we have firm confidence and believe in his sovereignty. As believers trust is crucial to receiving every promise God makes to us.  

Wait on the Lord - Let your hope be from the Lord; depend wholly on Him; have such confidence in Him as to expect His graciousness and for Him to act on your behalf. 

Keep His way - Or, walk in the path which He commands. Do not turn from that at any point. Do not allow any temptation, or any opposition, to cause you to swerve from that path.

The way to achieve victory when the enemy attacks is to wait on the Lord to act and to keep His way. Trust in the Lord and obedience to His commands are powerful weapons. If we trust and obey, the righteous will be exalted by the Lord and will dwell in the Promised Land.

Father God, help us to live in the spirit of obedience. May we trust You enough to let You take the lead and follow You. In Jesus' name, amen 🙏.
