O Lord, Do Not Delay

O Lord, Do Not Delay

Psalm 70 is a brief but powerful cry of urgent faith. We see David, pressed by danger and sorrow, calling upon God to act swiftly—not in panic, but in trust. Even amid persecution, David turns from fear to worship, urging all who seek the Lord to rejoice and proclaim, “God is great!” His honesty in prayer, his confidence in God’s justice, and his humility in dependence all point to a greater Deliverer—Jesus Christ—who endured the ultimate darkness for our salvation. Thus, believers can pray urgently, wait patiently, and rejoice steadfastly, knowing that the God who made haste to save us at Calvary will surely deliver us again for His glory and our eternal joy.
