1 Peter 2.9 (ESV) says, "The Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment."
Even as the Lord gathers his people from bondage in Assyria and the remotest regions of sin, we see the people of God are under attack from without and within. Shall we grow despondent? In no way. Our Lord comes to gather his people and execute judgment. On whose timetable? It is his own schedule, not ours. We have only to hold fast and wait on him. He will accomplish his purpose in the end.
