When the scripture is shouting that the “word” (of faith and promise) “is tried” [2 Sam 22:31; Ps 105:13-21], but the Lord is a buckler (stabilizing force) to all them that trust in Him; we (who believe) should be enabled, by the Spirit of the Lord, to gird up the loins of our minds to stand (in Christ) in the midst of the “fire.” [2 Pet 1:13; Eph 6:13-14]
“Here a little, there a little, line upon line, line upon line,” the Lord is making a solid case for the purpose of His speaking; to teach us the obedience (and response) of faith in all of our sufferings. [[Isa 28:10-11]
Lest we forget, we are being kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ...“That the trial of our faith ...though it be tried with 'fire,' might be found unto praise and honour and glory; at the appearing of Jesus Christ;” so that, after you have suffered a while, the Lord will “make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, and settle you.” [1 Pet 1:7; 5:10]
God has spoken a “sure word” of promise to “the seed;” that “the end of our faith would be the salvation of our souls.”
[Rom 4:16; 1 Pet 1:9]
After He speaks, the Lord watches over His word to perform it, in the vessel whereunto He spoke it. [Isa 55:11]
ThenSingsMySoul:
WE NEED A WORD FROM THE LORD,
A WORD FROM THE LORD;
JUST ONE WORD FROM THE LORD
WILL (REMOVE) ALL DOUBTS;
AND CAUSE THE (SON) TO SHINE,
AND GIVE (US) PEACE OF MIND;
SPEAK LORD, SPEAK!
