DCLM Daily Manna – 22nd July 2025 MESSAGE:
On the website of Preaching Today, we find the fascinating story of Admiral William H. McRaven, a former Navy SEAL officer in the U.S. Army. He said, “Hope is the most powerful force in the universe. With hope, you can inspire nations to greatness. With hope, you can raise up the downtrodden. With hope, you can ease the pain of unbearable loss. Sometimes, all it takes is one person to make a difference. We will all find ourselves neck-deep in mud someday. That is the time to sing loudly, smile broadly, lift up those around you, and give them hope that tomorrow will be a better day.”
The heroes of faith have one thing in common. That is the rare capacity to see the tangible objects of their faith, though they are yet hidden in the womb of time. From our text, Noah received God’s warning of an impending flood and was commanded to build an ark to salvage those who would believe. Prompted by the reverential fear of God, he ventured to do what no other had ever done in known history. His faith put him on the pedestal of righteousness, towering above the sinful world that was later condemned because of their unbelief.
Abraham obeyed God’s call to relocate to a land that would be his future inheritance and that of his progeny. Years wore on, but he dwelled in the strange land with Isaac and Jacob, believing with unadulterated persuasion that God could also perform what He’ had promised. Sarah, too, had passed the age of childbearing but by faith “received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age.”
Delay in the fulfilment of the divine promise could not sink the patience of any of these faith-worthies. They saw the objects of God’s promises afar off, and no delay could dampen their enthusiastic expectation. Indeed, they saw themselves as pilgrims on a nobler journey in quest of a heavenly city prepared for the faithful.
Beloved, your confidence in God’s promises has great reward. Keep on trusting in His promises. Run your faith engine on the unalloyed fuel of patience, and He will not fail you.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Patience is the power that runs the engine of enduring faith.
