Meditation from Zephaniah Chapter 3
The prophet reminds us that the LORD is righteous and does no wrong. We need to trust God for everything & at all circumstances, for He does nothing wrong. (3:5)
We need to,
Wait upon the LORD & let God be our Witness. (3:8) Either we fight our battles or allow God to fight. All that we need to do is to wait upon Him.
Wait upon the LORD & let God be our Witness. (3:8) Either we fight our battles or allow God to fight. All that we need to do is to wait upon Him.
And the prophet shares the consequence of such.
1. Rejoice - The LORD will rejoice over us with gladness. (3:17)
2. Renew - He will renew us in His love. (3:17)
3. Remove - He will remove disaster from us. (3:18)
4. Renown - He will change our shame into praise and make us renown. (3:19)
5. Restore - He will restore the lost spiritually. (3:20)
We need to come to a place in our life for God to do these, which the prophet says in verse 2 & 11,12.
1. Listen to people
2. Accept correction
3. Trust in the LORD
4. Draw near to God
5. Remove pride & be humble
2. Accept correction

May the LORD bring you to the right place in your life as you wait upon Him and allow God to be your witness, so that you may enjoy His Righteousness.
Have a blessed day!
