Scripture: Habakkuk 2: 2 Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. 3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. 4 “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith.
Reflection: Wait for it… that is a common expression today. People are not willing to invest two minutes, even to watch an entertaining video. God says to His people: wait for it. The vision has been written, and it is for an appointed time. God is saving His power for an appointed time.
God’s power is hidden in His secret timing. We must trust in the fullness of God’s power, knowing that there is power in Him that will not be made manifest until He decides that the timing is perfect. We saw this in the resurrection of Lazarus. His sisters, naturally, wanted the Lord to use His power to prevent the death of their brother. But the Lord had a better purpose. He wanted to demonstrate to us of little faith that He is sovereign over death.
When the time comes, the Lord will appear. His glory will fill the heavens, and the earth will be filled with His praise. The power that had been hidden from our sight will be evident!
