Isaiah
33:2
2 O LORD [Yahovah], be gracious [chanan] unto us; we have waited [qavah] for thee: be thou their arm [zarowa`] every morning [boqer], our salvation [yashuw`ah] also in the time [`eth] of trouble [tsarah]. KJV-Interlinear
2 O LORD, be gracious to us; we wait for
you. Be our arm every morning, our salvation in the time of trouble. ESV
Jesus Christ
controls history. God set out a plan in eternity past, that takes into
consideration every possible thought, intent, or action, throughout all of
creation history.
Our entire
individual life, is but a blink on the timeline of all of history.
Therefore, anxious
as we may be, we need to learn and exercise patience. And learning patience
often times comes in the form of prayer.
But prayer, should
be based on the substance of knowledge and understanding, which is Bible
doctrine.
And a daily study
of Bible doctrine, produces knowledge, which produces understanding, which
produces orientation to life, and that produces spiritual muscle which we call
faith.
And by faith, we
can pray, and expect the strength of God, which is herein referred to as the
arm of the Lord, and to be our strength every morning, meaning continually
moment by moment every day throughout our life, and our deliverance and
provision in times of trouble.
This is the Devils
world. Therefore, it is not going to ever be a perfect world. Therefore, there
is nothing humanity can do to make this imperfect world, any better than it is. Sin is the corruption of life, and in order
to make life perfect again, then sin has to be gotten rid of, and that only
comes by mean of Christ.
Perfection
throughout creation will only come in the future, when God creates a brand-new
universe, having thrown this one away into nonexistence.
Protection and
provision for your life, comes to those who advance in their spiritual life, as
God intends. And even though we will be pursued and harassed by the problems of
this world, then with God in our life, meaning with Bible doctrine in our soul,
then whatever our situation, will be temporary at best, and our destiny will be
secure and permanent.
Study [by instruction],
to show thyself
approved [spiritually mature]
unto God,
a workman [student]
that need not be
ashamed [ignorant],
rightly dividing [learning, understanding, discerning]
the word of truth [Bible doctrine].
If you can dream
and not make dreams your master,
If you can think
and not let thoughts narrow your views,
If you can meet
triumph with disaster equally,
If you can learn
and see your full meaning and purpose in life,
Then you can
believe in Christ, learn Bible doctrine, and grow far beyond the potential that
God has prepared for you.
These
studies are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org,
and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so already,
and therefore not be lost forever.
And
if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you
can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come
to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and
purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a
phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever.
To
ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete,
unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.
The
Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human
history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to
complete yourself beyond your imagination.
But
you have to decide to make that commitment.
No one else can study for you.
You have to do that yourself.
