Pray Over This

“Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time.”
1 Peter 5:6

Ponder This

Over and over again in the Bible, we are told to wait upon the Lord. When you don’t understand, don’t be unwilling to wait. A preacher who was in a hard spot said to me, “I know that God put me here. I just wonder if He remembers where He put me.” God knows where you are. The very hairs of your head are numbered. And the God that was with Joseph when he was a lad, the God who was with Joseph when he was serving in Potiphar’s house, was the God who was with Joseph when he languished, forgotten in prison.

God has His schedule. When you don’t understand, don’t demand to understand, don’t fail to be faithful, don’t bow to bitterness. God is never late, but He’s never ahead of time. It’s like the sun coming up. One thing about the sun coming up is you can’t hurry it and you can’t stop it. That’s the way God is. God is always on time. Wait on God. Don’t be unwilling to wait. Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God. In due time, He’ll lift you up. When you don’t understand, don’t get feverish. Wait on Him.
