This Evening's Scripture Reading: Isaiah 3:10-11 (NASB)

For they will eat the fruit of their actions.
Woe to the wicked! It will go badly with him,
For what he deserves will be done to him.”

Devotional Video Transcript:

It is well with the righteous ALWAYS. If it had said, “Say to the righteous, that it is well with him in his prosperity,” we must have been thankful for so great a boon, for prosperity is an hour of peril, and it is a gift from heaven to be secured from its snares. If it had been written, “It is well with him when under persecution,” we must have been thankful for so sustaining an assurance, for persecution is hard to bear; but when no time is mentioned, all time is included.

God’s “shalls” must always be understood in their largest sense. From the beginning of the year to the end of the year, from the first gathering of evening shadows until the new day dawns, in all conditions and under all circumstances, it shall be well with the righteous. It is so well with him that we could not imagine it to be better, for he is well fed — he feeds upon the flesh and blood of Jesus; he is well clothed — he wears the imputed righteousness of Christ; he is well housed — he dwells in God; he is well married — his soul is knit in bonds of marriage union to Christ; he is well provided for — for the Lord is his Shepherd; he is well endowed — for heaven is his inheritance. It is well with the righteous — well upon divine authority; the mouth of God speaks the comforting assurance.

O beloved, if God declares that all is well, ten thousand devils may declare it to be ill, but we laugh them all to scorn. Blessed be God for a faith that enables us to believe God when the creatures contradict him. It is, says the Word, at all times well with you, you righteous one; then, beloved, if you can not see it, let God’s word stand you in stead of sight; yes, believe it on divine authority more confidently than if your eyes and your feelings told it to you. Whom God blesses is blessed indeed, and what his lip declares is truth most sure and steadfast.
