Wait For It

Wait For It by Kirk Hunt

For the vision is yet for an appointed time;
But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie.
Though it tarries, wait for it;
Because it will surely come,
It will not tarry.

Habakkuk 2:3 NKJV

Wait for it. Whatever “it” is, it is coming. Try not to fidget.

Perhaps it is a long promised victory. Maybe it is a spiritual breakthrough. It could be the salvation of a wayward, but beloved soul. Whatever it is, that vision burns within your heart and mind.

“Wait for it” is easily said. “Wait for it” is not easily lived. Patience and obedience requires more spiritual steel and Godly strength than you think. Or wanted.

One problem is our human sense of events and circumstances. We do not have God’s eternal viewpoint. You do not see with God’s omniscient sight. This digital society’s obsession with speed does not help.

The appointed time makes perfect sense in God’s order of events. The threads of your destiny, and so many others, are being woven in the loom of God’s purpose. Eternal blessings take a little longer, but will satisfy when they arrive. Stay the course.

Wait for God’s timing. It will be worth it. You will understand why it took so long, when it arrives. Then again, in that moment of joy and wonder, you may no concern yourself with timing.

Of course, the hard work of your circumstances continue. Your yearning heart and seeking mind are eager for the conclusion. Your spirit is ready for fulfillment.

Wait for it. God promised it. It will arrive. Do not squirm.

Think: God’s promises will arrive.

Pray: “Lord, help me wait for Your promises.”

“Read His Memos” by Kirk Hunt

 

And Jonathan Saul’s son arose, and went to David into the wood, and strengthened his hand in God. And he said unto him, Fear not: for the hand of Saul my father shall not find thee; and thou shalt be king over Israel, and I shall be next unto thee; and that also Saul my father knoweth.

2 Samuel 23:16-17 KJV

 

Despite escaping King Saul again, David needed encouragement. The constant pressure and tension of a fugitive’s life exacts a heavy toll. Even on a courageous and valiant man like David.

 

Into this dark and desperate circumstance, Prince Jonathan brought joy and comfort to his friend’s heart and spirit. How? With a memo.

 

Not a literal piece of paper or parchment, but a memorandum, none the less. Jonathan repeated a short message, declaring David’s safety and coming coronation as king of Israel. A communication, initialed not by some earthly man, but by Jehovah-Jireh.

 

Jonathan left his friend by himself, but not alone. Saul’s death warrant could not penetrate God’s sanctuary. Despite danger and peril, David rested in the calm and safety of God’s love.

 

Scripture is full of God’s promises to you. The Bible records God’s ongoing love, care and protection for you. God’s little memos are full of big promises to you.

 

Don’t let recent circumstances block your faith. No matter how pressed or pressured today is, God has promised you a tomorrow full of joy, safety and success. Go read the memos.

 

Think : I need to read God’s memos to me.

 

Pray: “Lord, Help me to trust Your promises from Your Word.”
