“Do as thou hast said.” — 2 Samuel 7:25
God’s promises were never meant to be thrown aside as waste paper; He
intended that they should be used. God’s gold is not miser’s money, but is
minted to be traded with. Nothing pleases our Lord better than to see His
promises put in circulation; He loves to see His children bring them up to
Him, and say, “Lord, do as Thou hast said.” We glorify God when we
plead His promises. Do you think that God will be any the poorer for
giving you the riches He has promised? Do you dream that He will be any
the less holy for giving holiness to you? Do you imagine He will be any
the less pure for washing you from your sins? He has said “Come now,
and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall
be as wool.” Faith lays hold upon the promise of pardon, and it does not
delay, saying,…
“This is a precious promise, I wonder if it be true?” but it
goes straight to the throne with it, and pleads, “Lord, here is the promise,
‘Do as Thou hast said.’” Our Lord replies, “Be it unto thee even as thou
wilt.” When a Christian grasps a promise, if he do not take it to God, he
dishonours Him; but when he hastens to the throne of grace, and cries,
“Lord, I have nothing to recommend me but this, ‘Thou hast said it;’” then
his desire shall be granted. Our heavenly Banker delights to cash His own
notes. Never let the promise rust. Draw the word of promise out of its
scabbard, and use it with holy violence. Think not that God will be
troubled by your importunately reminding Him of His promises. He loves
to hear the loud outcries of needy souls. It is His delight to bestow
favours. He is more ready to hear than you are to ask. The sun is not
weary of shining, nor the fountain of flowing. It is God’s nature to keep
His promises; therefore go at once to the throne with “Do as Thou hast
said.”
