“Now there was a long war between the house of Saul and the
house of David. But David grew stronger and stronger, and the house of Saul
grew weaker and weaker.”
2 Samuel 3:1
Just because the Lord had anointed
David to be king when he was a young lad it took awhile for the kingdom to be
given to David, His beloved. And just because Saul was dead did not mean that the
kingdom was handed to David overnight. It took a long time for David to finally
bring the nation together under his rule. Ishbosheth and his men and David and
his men fought for quite a long time. Yet what our Father promises, He delivers—even
if it takes longer than we had expected. We grow stronger and stronger as we
wait for the promise to come to pass. Don’t be discouraged if you have received
a promise in the Lord and it tarries. God knows your situation and in His
timing it will come to pass. Stay closely related to Him. Spend lots of time in
the Lord’s presence praying, praising, and worshiping Him. There may be a
battle going on in the spiritual realm, but we know who wins. God always gets
the victory. As you stand in faith and worship and adore Him, you will be
encouraged and your faith will grow stronger. He is faithful and He will bring
your promise to pass.
Father, we thank You for everything. We know that You have
a plan and a purpose for all of us. We are Your beloved’s, the apple of Your
eye.. What You promise, You deliver. Even if it takes longer than we expected.
We grow stronger in our faith as we wait for You to bring Your promises to us
to pass. We ask You today to loose Your angels to war in the spiritual realm
for our behalf. Bring Your will, purposes, and promises to us to pass. In Jesus’
name we pray. Amen.
