KEY SCRIPTURE: 2Sa 3:18 KJV Now then do it: for the LORD hath spoken of David, saying, By the hand of my servant David I will save my people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.”

In our key scripture, Abner, who had stood along with King Saul to pursue David, came to the elders of Israel, telling them what God had said about David. He acknowledged that God had said that, by the hands of David, He would deliver Israel from the hands of the Philistines. He had known this all this while, yet they pursued David to kill him. Even after the death of King Saul, he kept resisting David from ascending the throne, but when God’s time was up, this same man came to the elders of Israel and explained to them that David should be made King. Dear brother or sister, do not give up on whatever God has said to you. Hab 2:3 KJV” For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” If God said it, then it would come to pass. The prophet Habakkuk says, thou it tarries, wait for it.

To wait means to keep trusting God’s word and doing everything in anticipation of the fulfilment of that promise. Heb 6:12 KJV “That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” The Lord described how certain people inherited the promise. He said these people received the promises through their faith and patience they inherited the promise. Dear one, the truth is that God never fails in doing His part of the matter. It is always our part to keep acting

CONFESSION

 God is faithful. He would never deny himself. He honours whatever he has promised. I will always do my part by trusting and obeying His word.
