Isaiah 30:18 - Prepare for The King.

Isaiah 30:18 (NIV) Yet the LORD longs to be 
gracious to you; he rises to show you compassion. For 
the LORD is a God of justice. Blessed are all 
who wait for him! 

Isaiah 30:18 (NLT) So the LORD must wait for 
you to come to him so he can show you his love 
and compassion. For the LORD is a faithful God. 
Blessed are those who wait for his help.  

COMMENTARY PEARL

   The late Dr. S. M. Lockridge recorded a 
video tribute to Jesus Christ, the King of kings. 
It is worth seeing. This remarkable bit of 
preaching was combined with images, and the resulting 
video went viral on YouTube. It beautifully 
captures the enthusiasm of those who know Jesus is 
coming again. I love what he said. "Do you know 
Him?.... You can't outlive Him, and you can't live 
without Him.... That's my King!" 
   Christ's coming again is mentioned all 
through Scripture. We are told that the world will 
one day acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord 
(Philippians 2:10-11), that Jesus will sit on the throne 
(Luke 1:32), and that there will be universal joy 
among the redeemed (Isaiah 51:11). 
   What can we do to prepare for this great 
day? Believe in Him who makes your salvation 
sure. Rest in hope that He is purifying you (1 
John 3:3). Desire His imminent return. Wait 
patiently for the promise to be fulfilled (Hebrews 
11:9-10). Watch in faith for His coming again (Hebrews 
11:13). Look for this blessed hope (Titus 2:13). 
   How patiently are you waiting for 
Christ's return? [Peace for Each Day by Billy 
Graham]
