VERSES EVERYTHING HAS ITS TIME

You know, something I've really come to understand is that God's timing is perfect. Everything you've prayed for will happen when it's meant to. We often rush through life, burdened and worried about things happening quickly, but God makes it clear in His Word that there's a season for everything. So, take a deep breath and rest in the hands of your Heavenly Father. Everything comes at the right time, in the right place.

We need to remember that our time isn't the same as God's. His time is often referred to as kairos – that opportune, appointed moment. It's that perfect, heaven-sent timing that unfolds here on earth to bless us. God is never late. Trust in Him and wait for what you long for.

When you rest in God, you're showing your faith and the confidence you have in His promises.

Wait for Hashem: Chazak! And strengthen thine lev. Wait, I say, for Hashem.

(For the one directing, Of Dovid. Mizmor)

Because you have da'as that the emunah you have, when it is tested, produces savlanut (patient endurance).And let savlanut be shleimah in its po'al (work) in order that you may be mevugarim (mature, grown up) and complete, lacking in nothing.

For the chazon is yet for a mo'ed (an appointed time); it speaks of HaKetz (the End), and does not lie; though it tarry, wait for him; because he will surely come, and will not tarry.

And therefore will Hashem wait, that He may be gracious unto you, and therefore will He be exalted, that He may have rachamim upon you; for Hashem is Elohei Mishpat; Ashrei are all they that wait for Him.

Be anxious in nothing, but in everything by tefillah and by techinnah (supplication) with hodayah (thanksgiving), let your requests be made known before Hashem,And the shalom Hashem, surpassing all binah (understanding), will guard your levavot and your machshavot (thoughts) in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua.

I wait for Hashem, my nefesh doth wait, and in His Devar do I hope.

Not only so, but we also glory in tzoros (troubles, afflictions), knowing that tzarah (trouble) produces savlanut (patience),Savlanut produces tested character and midos, and tested character and midos produce tikvah.

He that is slow to anger is better than the gibbor; and he that ruleth his ruach than he that captures a city.

Trust in Hashem with all thine lev, and lean not unto thine own binah (understanding).In all thy drakhim acknowledge Him, and He shall make yosher thy orkhot (paths).

You are nitzrach (needy) of the kind of savlanut (patience) that has endurance, in order that, having accomplished the ratzon Hashem, you will receive the havtachah (promise).

Our nefesh waiteth for Hashem; He is ezreinu (our help) and moginneinu (our shield).

But they that wait upon Hashem shall renew their ko'ach; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not grow weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Have simcha in tikvah. Have savlanut in tzoros. Keep davening tefillos.

Rest in Hashem, and wait patiently for Him; fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his derech, because of the ish who bringeth wicked schemes to pass.

Hashem is tov unto them that wait for Him, to the nefesh that seeketh Him.It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the Teshu'at Hashem.

Have savlanut (patience), therefore, Achim b'Moshiach, until the Bias HaMoshiach, the Coming of Moshiach Adoneinu. Hinei, the ikar (farmer) awaits the precious p'ri haAdamah (fruit of the earth), having savlanut (patience) for it until it receives the Yoreh (first autumn rain) and the Malkosh (spring rain).You must also have savlanut. Strengthen your levavot, because the Bias HaMoshiach, the Coming of Moshiach Adoneinu, has drawn near.

Truly they consult to bring down a person of prominence; they delight in kazav (lie, falsehood, deceptive thing); they make a brocha with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah

But if we have tikvah for what we do not see, we eagerly await it with savlanut.

Now let us not lose chozek in doing Gemilut Chasadim, for BE'ITO (in its season) we will reap, if we faint not.

Fier zich (comport oneself) in your derech free of chamdanut (covetousness), being content with what you have, for He Himself has said, LO ARPECHA V'LO E'EZVECHA (I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you),So that we say with bitachon, HASHEM LI my helper, LO IRA MAH YA'ASEH LI ADAM? (The L-rd is my helper, I will not be afraid. What shall man do to me?)

Commit thy derech (road, way) unto Hashem; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to pass.

The seichel adam deferreth his anger, and it is his tiferet (glory) to pass over a peysha (transgression).

He did not, in disbelief, doubt the havtachah of Hashem (the promise of G-d), but was strengthened in emunah (faith), giving kavod (glory) to Hashem,

Hinei, we call me'ashirim the ones having endured: the enduring orech ruach (patience) of Iyov you heard of, and the toitzaa (outcome) from Hashem you saw, that Eloheinu is full of rachamim and channun Hashem.

And He shall judge the tevel (world) in tzedek, He shall govern the nations with justice.

For I know the machshavot (thoughts, plans) that I think toward you, saith Hashem, machshavot shalom, and not of ra'ah, to give you an acharit (future) and a tikvah (hope).

Therefore, give chozek (strength) and encouragement, building up one another, as indeed you are doing.

In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have to suffer in various masot (trials, temptations),

And melachim shall be thy omenim (foster fathers, supporters, nurturers), and their sarot thy wet nurses; they shall bow down before thee with their face toward eretz, and lick the aphar of thy raglayim; and thou shalt know that I am Hashem; for they shall not be put to shame that wait for Me.

Now Emunah is the substance of things for which we have tikvah. Emunah is the conviction of things not seen.

For thus saith Adonoi Hashem Kadosh Yisroel; In shuvah (returning) and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your gevurah (strength); but ye would not.

But He knoweth the derech that I take; when He hath tried me, I shall come forth as zahav.

Hinei, as the eyes of avadim look unto the yad adoneihem, and as the eyes of a shifchah (maiden) unto the yad of her gevirah; so our eyes wait upon Hashem Eloheinu, until He have channun (favor, grace) upon us.

And an eved Hashem ought not be a Ba'al Machlokes (quarrelsome person), but ought to be eidel (gentle, courteous) to all, a skilled rabbinic moreh, savlan (patient),

Hinei, El is my Yeshu'ah (Salvation); I will trust, and not be afraid; for Hashem G-d is my strength and my zemirah; He also has become my Yeshu'ah (Salvation).

Trust in Hashem, and do tov; so shalt thou dwell in the Eretz (land), ure'eh emunah (and thou be pastured securely).The mouth of the tzaddik speaketh chochmah, and his leshon uttereth mishpat.The torat Elohav is in his lev; no steps of his shall slip.The rashah lieth in wait to ambush the tzaddik, and seeketh to slay him.Hashem will not leave him in his yad (hand, power), nor condemn him b'hishshafto (when he is judged, brought to trial).Wait on Hashem, and be shomer over His Derech, and He shall exalt thee to inherit Eretz; when the resha'im are cut off, thou shalt see it.I have seen the violently powerful rashah, spreading himself like an indigenous green tree.Yet he passed away, and, hinei, he was no more; yes, I sought him, but he could not be found.Mark the blameless man, and observe the yashar (upright); for the end of that ish is shalom.But the poshe'im (rebels, transgressors) shall be made shmad together; the latter end of the resha'im shall be cut off. But the Teshu'at Tzaddikim is of Hashem; He is their ma'oz (stronghold, refuge) in the time of tzoros.Delight thyself also in Hashem, and He shall give thee the desires of thine lev.

Come to me, all you who are burden-weary and heavy laden, and I will give you Shabbos menuchah.

Not that I refer to lack, for I have learned, in whatever circumstances I am, to be tzufrieden (content).I have da'as both to be humbled in anavah and I have da'as how to abound in everything. And in all things I have learned what is nistar (concealed, hidden, unseen), I have learned the secret of being filled and having hunger, of abounding and having lack.

When I remember these things, I pour out my nefesh within me; for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the Beis Elohim with the voice of rinnah and todah, with the multitude keeping Chag (holy day, pilgrim feast).

Hashem, I have hoped for Thy Yeshu'ah (salvation), and do Thy mitzvot.

But seek first the Malchut Hashem and the Tzidkat Hashem, and all these things will be added to you.

[Ayin] The eyes of all look to Thee; and Thou givest them their okhel (food) in its season.

And without Emunah it is impossible to please Hashem. For it is necessary for the one making a kiruv approach to Hashem to have Emunah in the fact that yesh Elohim (G-d is there), and that Elohim gives sachar (reward) to those who seek him with zerizut.

For in tikvah (hope) we were delivered in eschatological salvation. But tikvah (hope) which is seen is not tikvah, for who hopes for what he sees?

And everyone having this tikvah (hope) in Him keeps himself in tohorah (purification, keeps himself pure), even as that One is tahor.

Let us, without wavering, hold firmly to the hoda'ah of Tikveteinu, for Ne'eman is the One having given the havtachah (promise).

Ani Hu (I am) HaGefen; you are the sarigim (branches). The one remaining in me and I in him, this one bears much p'ri, because apart from me you are not able to do anything.

If thou faint in the yom tzarah, thy strength is small.

With all anavah (humility) of mind and meekness, with savlanut (longsuffering), showing forbearance to one another in ahavah,

One thing have I asked of Hashem, that will I seek after: that I may dwell in the Bais Hashem all the days of my life, to behold the gracefulness of Hashem, and to inquire in His Heikhal.

Therefore, as Bechirim (Chosen ones) of Hashem, Kedoshim and ahuvim, enrobe yourselves in tender feelings of rachmei Shomayim (heavenly compassion, mercy), chesed (lovingkindness), anavah (humility), shiflut (lowliness), and savlanut (longsuffering),

Indeed, in the orakh of Thy mishpatim, Hashem, have we waited for Thee; our ta'avat nefesh (yearning of soul) is for Thy Shem, and for the zekher (memory, remembrance) of Thee.

My flesh and my levav may fail; but Elohim is the Tzur of my levav, and my chelek l'olam.

Now he was speaking a mashal to them about how it is necessary always for them to daven and not to lose chozek,

[Dalet] Show me Thy ways, Hashem; teach me Thy paths.[Heh Vav] Lead me in Thy emes, and teach me; for Thou art the Elohei of my Salvation; on Thee do I wait kol hayom.

Therefore, let us approach with bitachon the Kisse of Chesed, that we may receive rachamim and may find chesed for timely ezrah (aid).

Watch, stand firm in the emunah (faith), be men, be strong.

Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak, for there is sachar (reward) for your pe'ulah (work).

Did I not believe to see Hashemʼs goodness in the Eretz Chayyim!

For as Shomayim is higher than ha'aretz, so are the darkhei of Me higher than the darkhei of you, and My machshevot than your machshevot.

He maketh milchamot to cease unto the end of ha'aretz; He breaketh the keshet (bow), and cutteth the khanit (spear); He burneth the chariots in the eish.

For this is worthy of shevach (praise, commendation) if, because of a consciousness of Hashem, anyone bears up under tzoros (troubles) while suffering unjustly.As new born olalim (infants), desire the pure cholov ruchani (spiritual milk), that by it you may grow into Yeshu'at Eloheynu,For what shevach (praise) is it if, after committing chatta'im (sins) and being beaten, you endure? But if being osei tzedek (doers of what is right) and suffering, then you endure, this is worthy of shevach before Hashem.

Show mishpochah (family) affection to one another in ahavah shel achvah (brotherly love). Be first in esteeming one another, in showing mutual respect.

Ahavah suffers long; ahavah is kind; ahavah does not have kinah; ahavah does not brag; ahavah is not puffed up in ga'avah (conceit, pride);

Thou art my seter (hiding place) and my mogen: I hope in Thy Devar.

And it shall be said in Yom HaHu, Hinei, this is Eloheinu; we have waited for Him, and He will save us; this is Hashem; we have waited for Him, we will be glad and have simcha in His Yeshu'ah (Salvation).

So, therefore, als (since) we have surrounding us so great an Anan Edim (Cloud of Witnesses), let us also lay aside every weighty impediment and easily ensnaring averos, and let us run with endurance and savlanut the race set before us,

Thus I was like an ish that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no tokhachot (reproofs).

For we by the Ruach Hakodesh eagerly await by emunah that for which we have tikvah, our Tzidkat Hashem righteousness.

Thou meetest with him that rejoiceth to work tzedek, those that remember Thee in Thy drakhim; see, Thou art in wrath; for we have been in sins; in them a long time, and shall we be saved?

But Hashem is not slow concerning his havtachah (promise), as some consider slowness, but is demonstrating savlanut (patience) toward you, not wanting any to perish but all to come to teshuva (repentance).

Wait on Hashem, and be shomer over His Derech, and He shall exalt thee to inherit Eretz; when the resha'im are cut off, thou shalt see it.

May the G-d of savlanut and of nechamah give you to live in harmony among yourselves in accordance with Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua,

Have da'as of this, my beloved Achim b'Moshiach. Let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to ka'as (anger).

[Gimel] Yea, let none that wait [hoping in] Thee be ashamed; let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.

That you not become atzlanit (sluggards) but imitators of the ones who through Emunah and savlanut (patience) inherit the havtachot (promises).

And we exhort you, Achim b'Moshiach, warn the batlanim (unemployed or lazy loafers, idlers), comfort the congregant who is pachdan (fainthearted), those who are weak take an interest in, have savlanut (patience) with all.

Now the Elohei Kol Chen v'Chesed (the G-d of all Grace), the one having bestowed upon you the kri'ah (calling) into His eternal kavod in Moshiach Yehoshua, after you have suffered tzoros for a little while, will Himself restore, confirm, strengthen and establish you.

Hashem is my chelek, saith my nefesh; therefore in hope will I wait for Him.

For I reckon that the yisurim (suffering) of zman hazeh (of this present time) are not to be compared with the coming kavod (glory) to be revealed in us.

Therefore we are undaunted and do not lose chozek (strength). For, indeed, even if our outward man is becoming old and atrophied, yet our inward man is yom yom being renewed.For our present momentary tzoros is preparing us for an eternal weight of kavod (glory) utterly beyond measure,While we continue to look not at the visible things but the invisible; for the things visible are zemanniyim (temporary) but the things invisible are for l'olamim.

And we have da'as that for those who love Hashem everything co-operates toward HaTov for those who are HaKeru'im (the summoned, called ones) according to the etzah (wisdom) of the tochnit Hashem (G-dʼs purposeful and willed plan or goal).

With all ko'ach being empowered according to the gevurah (power) of his kavod for all savlanut (patience) and orech ruach (longsuffering) with lev same'ach (glad heart),

I can do all things in the One giving me ko'ach.

O love Hashem, all ye His Chasidim; for Hashem preserveth the emunim (the faithful ones), but He pays back in full the oseh ga'avah (the one acting in pride, haughtily).

Say not thou, I will pay back rah; but wait on Hashem, and He shall save thee.

May the Elohei HaTikvah (the G-d of hope) fill you with simcha and shalom in believing, that you may overflow in tikvah (hope), in the ko'ach (power) of the Ruach Hakodesh.

Better is the acharit (end) of a thing than the reshit (beginning) thereof; and erech ruach (patience) is better than gavoah ruach (haughtiness).

Surely every ish walketh in a tzel (shadow); surely they are in turmoil in vain; he heapeth up riches, and hath no da'as of who shall gather them.

He giveth ko'ach to the faint; and to them that have no might He increaseth power.

And our tikvah (hope) for you is well-founded, for we have da'as that as you have deveykus (cleaving to) the Chevlei Moshiach, so also you will have deveykus to the nechamah.

My nefesh waiteth for Adonoi more than the shomrim that watch for the boker; I say, more than the shomrim that watch for the boker.

In your savlanut (patience) and endurance you will gain your nefashot (souls).

And thus, having waited with savlanut, Avraham Avinu obtained the havtachah (promise).

Therefore wait ye upon Me, saith Hashem, until the Yom that I rise up for a prey; My determination is to gather the Goyim, that I may assemble the mamlachot, to pour upon them Mine indignation, even all My charon af; for kol ha'aretz (all the earth) shall be devoured with the eish of My kina (jealousy).

Now may Hashem direct your levavot in the Ahavas Hashem and into the savlanut of Moshiach.

Pay heed unto the voice of my cry, Malki v'Elohai; for unto Thee will I daven.

Therefore I will look [in hope] for Hashem; I will wait for Elohei Yishi (the G-d of my Salvation); Elohai (my G-d) will hear me.
