“Therefore, the LORD longs to be gracious to you, and therefore He waits on high to have compassion on you. For the LORD is a God of justice; How blessed are all those who long for Him.” — Isaiah 30:18
God does not act in haste. Patience, calmness, and waiting are among the attributes of God. As we read the various events recorded in the Bible, we understand that God works according to His perfect timing.
Today’s meditation verse speaks about two kinds of waiting — God waiting for man, and man waiting for God. The verse says, “The LORD longs to be gracious to you…,” and also declares, “How blessed are all those who long for Him.” This means that God waits for the appointed time to show us compassion, and until that time comes, we too must wait for Him to act.
When God gave Abraham the promise, “And I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you, and make your name great; And so you shall be a blessing.” — Genesis 12:2
Abraham was 75 years old and had no children. Yet he had to wait until he was 100 years old for God’s promise to be fulfilled. As it is written:
“And so, having patiently waited, he obtained the promise.”— Hebrews 6:15
Moses received God’s call at the age of 80 and then led the Israelites toward Canaan. Yes, God, who had chosen Moses for His work, waited until Moses was 80 years old to appoint him. The Scripture says:
“Now the time that the sons of Israel lived in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years.” — Exodus 12:40
God waited all those years to deliver His people from the bondage of Egypt. Even after leaving Egypt, it took them 40 more years to reach the land of Canaan.
Yes, beloved, today we too may be waiting on God for various needs. At times, this waiting can cause discouragement. But that discouragement is not permanent. The Word of God strengthens us:
“Yet those who wait for the LORD Will gain new strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles, they will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weary.” — Isaiah 40:31
Finally, today’s meditation reminds us:
“For the LORD is a God of justice; how blessed are all those who long for Him.” — Isaiah 30:18
Our God is not one who makes us wait only to disappoint us. He is a God of justice. There is no unrighteousness in Him. Therefore, as God waits to show us compassion, let us also wait patiently for Him.
“Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time.” — 1 Peter 5:6
