Robertson highlights that obedience to God's will and surrendering our own will is the key to gaining spiritual wisdom, understanding truth, and discerning God's doctrine.
He Will Be Seen

Just like the sun is still shining behind the clouds, God is always present and working behind the scenes, even when we cannot see or feel Him. In times of despair, when we cannot sense God's presence due to physical, mental, or intellectual struggles, we are called to replace faith with hope, knowing that God's righteousness and truth will prevail. We are encouraged to trust in God's timing and ultimate deliverance, believing that He will bring things to pass according to His perfect plan.
