Day 208
Micah 7:7
"Therefore I will look unto the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me."
What a beautiful statement in Micah 7:7. The prophet speaks of the confidence God's people can have in Him. It does not matter what the circumstances appear to be. We can exercise patience, because God hears and responds to all His children who call on Him in faith. That is absolutely special.
A songwriter wrote, "Because He lives, I can face tomorrow." The key is not just the fact that Jesus is alive, but that he also loves us and is actively involved in our lives. If He would give His life for us, what will He not do for our benefit when we serve Him? Paul said in Romans 8:32, "He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?"
It is essential that we remain aware of our divine connection. It will bring us peace and comfort in pleasant and unpleasant times. Let us thank the Lord today for the blessed assurance that He never leaves us or forsakes us and always listens to and responds to us.
I will look to God, my salvation. I will wait for Him. He always hears me.
