Isaiah 30:18 And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious to you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy on you… Notice two or three times in which God is compelled to wait that He may be gracious unto us. I. THE TIME OF DISOBEDIENCE. II. THE TIME OF FALSE CONFIDENCE (vers. 7, 15-18). III. THE TIME OF APATHY. (J. Brash.) Parallel Verses KJV: And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for him. |
