Micah 7:7 AMPC
[7] But as for me, I will look to the Lord and confident in Him I will keep watch; I will wait with hope and expectancy for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me.
The focus is on me. I do not know what the other person beside me wants to do, as I do not know what is the basis of that person's pursuits and priorities. It is not profitable to fret over another person's lifestyle, if I have not sorted out my own. What do I stand to gain if I am not connected to the purpose of God for me, whilst I am busy worried over the events in another person's life? I have to first sort out my own life, its purpose and its focus, then I can make impact in line with the revelation of God's will that I have received. There is so much evil in the land, and it appears that as the end times contine, things will only get worse. If I do not have a firm foundation in God, how do I expect to survive the storms that are coming? For me, I look to the Lord alone. My confidence is in Him alone, because it is not given to man to be dependable the way God is.
I keep watch over my life's focus. I do not take my eyes off the prize. Let evil prosper, and let men 'make it' by corruption; I will wait for God to bless me in His own way and in His own time. I will watch Him work, because I know that whatever He does abides forever. He is the One who can bless a man beyond the reach of any curse. I wait in expectation of the manifestation of the power, might, wisdom and revelation of God for the times I live in. There is a message for these times, and only those who key into what God is doing now will enjoy the blessings that God has released for these times. I am encouraged to speak often with God, because I am confident that He hears. His ears are not dull of hearing, as long as I do not allow sin rule in my life. Whilst men profit from iniquity, I seek to profit from investment in time spent with God. No man seeks God, waits for and obeys Him, and then has regrets. Would you leave the life of sin, so you can live a life of impact? God waits for us. God's time of favour is here.
