1 Samuel 13:1-23; Isaiah 52:1-12; 2 Corinthians 12:14-13:14
I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it. Psalm 52:9
“Thou hast done it.” How’s that for an established fact! Done what? Everything He said He would do—even that which has not yet been revealed as an accomplished fact. Look at 2 Cor. 6:2, “In the day of salvation [yet future when spoken] have I succoured thee.” This promise was first made to Israel, then here to believers, and is yet to have its complete fulfillment. Yet we read that He has done it. God uses verb tenses we could never use; God speaks uniquely in the “present-future-past.” It’s all “already done” to Him!—Eunice Free
How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
Is laid for your faith, in His excellent Word!
What more can He say, than to you He hath said,
To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled? —Unknown
