Prayer for fulfilment of God’s Promise

2 Samuel 7:25-26

And now, Lord God, keep forever the promise  you have made concerning your servant and his house. Do as you promised,   so that your name  will be great forever. Then people will say, ‘The Lord Almighty is God over Israel!’ And the house of your servant David will be established  in your sight.

2 Samuel 7:28

Sovereign Lord, you are God! Your covenant is trustworthy,  and you have promised these good things to your servant.

Psalm 119:81-82

My soul faints  with longing for your salvation,
 but I have put my hope  in your word.
    My eyes fail,  looking for your promise;
 I say, “When will you comfort me?”

Psalm 119:162

I rejoice  in your promise
 like one who finds great spoil.
'Waiting through the Spirit'
For through the Spirit we eagerly await by faith the righteousness for which we hope. - Galatians 5:5
Waiting is hard. Waiting for something or someone special is incredibly hard. Waiting for our transformation to be like Jesus, full of righteousness and grace, is impossibly hard without the gift of the Holy Spirit.

But with the Spirit, we eagerly hope and expect to see all that God has prepared for us and all that he will transform within us!

Psalm 30:5

“For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.”

God is the God of all comfort (see 2 Cor. 1). Even when he deals harshly with our sin and rebellion, it is for our good. It will last only a short while and then it gives way to rejoicing. If you are in a time of discipline or facing the cruel consequences of sin, please don't give up. Morning will come, and on that dawn will come God's grace. It's more than worth the wait!
