Today's Scripture
The Lord knows how to rescue you. He hasn't forgotten; He isn't incapable; He has your life and your trials in His hand. Now that doesn't always mean He'll take us out of trials in this life. But it does mean that in the end He will deliver us completely from sin and Satan and this fallen world. He's also fully capable of taking care of punishing the unrighteous. Sometimes in this life we see people doing horrible things with seemingly no punishment. Though it may not be obvious now, God will bring punishment on those people. He has punishment and reward in His hands and He will make everything right in the end.
Study Questions:
1. What is the phrase "if this is so" referring back to?
2. Do you live with the understanding that reward and punishment don't always happen in this life but are coming?
