Isaiah 3:10 KJV
Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
Gill says,
"The Lord always has some righteous ones, in the worst of times, whom he can and does distinguish, single out, and take care of....."
This word of encouragement ought to be on the lips of every believer today. Though our times may not be as terrible as things were in Isaiah's day, still they are are not moving toward better times but worse. Though there has been a kind reprieve in of Christian suffering (at least in the United States) we should not expect it to become easier to be a Christian.
Through it all we have this comfort to all genuine believers, "it shall be well with him." God will distinguish, single out and take care of His own.

- Evil men will, as the Bible foretells, wax worse and worse.
- Unbelief will become more and more dominant.
- False Christs and false prophets will rise in greater numbers and
- False believers will be the result
