David Jeremiah Daily Devotional for Today 11th January 2026
A music trivia question: Which number one hit song has the distinction of containing the oldest lyrics? The answer is “Turn! Turn! Turn!” released by the folk-rock group The Byrds in 1962. The song was originally written by Pete Seeger in 1959 using—almost exclusively—the words of Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 which were written by King Solomon in the tenth century B.C.
While Seeger originally wrote the song as a protest anthem—“A time of war, and a time of peace” (Ecclesiastes 3:8)—Solomon’s motivation in writing his words was different. Solomon’s words were like those in Psalm 31:14-15: “I trust in You, O Lord…. My times are in Your hand.” Solomon wrote Ecclesiastes while looking back on his life filled with momentous challenges and events. His perspective was one of patience, of trust in God’s plan and timetable. There is a time for everything that God has ordained. Our challenge is to wait on the Lord and His timing to be revealed (Isaiah 40:31).
You no doubt have plans for the coming year. Solomon would say, “Wait on the Lord; submit your plans to God. There is a time for everything.”
To wait on God is to live a life of desire toward Him.
Matthew Henry
Read-Thru-the-Bible: Genesis 36:1 – 38:30 (NIV)
