The Lord and His Promise


“The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.”  2 Peter 3:9

God has a plan and nothing will stop it.  The Lord has a promise and it will come to pass.  God sent His only Son Jesus so that none would perish but that all would repent and receive Jesus as Lord and Savior.  He is not slack on this promise. 

This is why we pray and this is what we pray.  We pray for those the Lord is waiting on.  By His prevenient grace, God draws people to Himself.  We love Him only because He first loved us, according to 1 John.  We bring ourselves to this particular work of prayer for the lost to be found.  For all those who have received God’s invitation to be part of the banquet, may today be the day of salvation.  Lord, continue to draw Your people with cords of lovingkindness.   Father, be the lifter of their heads today, that those who do not know You may find You.  Reveal Yourself this day Lord Jesus, because You are not slack concerning Your promise.  This is our prayer today, so that others may know that You and You alone are God.
