“Thou hast dealt well with Thy servant, O Lord, according unto thy Word” (Psalm 119:65).
Pastor Oakfield was very busy counseling four young couples who would be getting married later that year. It was a joyful time as they continued to work through the premarital counseling material he had ordered. Wanting to assure the young couples that the things he was sharing were not just his own imagination, Pastor invited Henry and his wife Marcia to share their testimonies with the young couples. “Uncle Hank,” as he was affectionately known, started his testimony with the verse that you have read for today’s Daily Prescription. His weather-worn hands trembled slightly as he read God’s Word, but his voice was steady and sure as he shared with the couples that God dealt well with this old servant. He shared many things about how to live for the Lord, how to walk with Him, and the importance of watching for the Lord to work in their lives each day. If your pastor should give you the opportunity to be a testimony to younger couples, think back on the many times and ways that God has dealt well with you as His servant. He honors His Word. He keeps His promises. He holds His child in a blessed security. Isn’t it great that God deals well with His servants?
For today: Be watching for the many ways that God will remind you of His Word. He will deal well with you today!
