WAITING ON GOD
One of the most difficult things for man is to exercise patience and wait when something is urgently needed—especially when the situation we find ourselves in is uncomfortable and painful.
Throughout Scripture, we find many people who had to wait for God’s appointed time. Some passed this test, like Job, while others failed, like Saul.
Many of the situations we encounter in life require us to wait on God for just a little while longer. Sometimes, however, our impatience can push us toward quick alternatives that appear to offer immediate solutions but eventually come with grievous consequences.
Isaiah 40:31 reminds us:
> “But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength.”
Beloved, don't be like Saul, who could have waited a little longer but chose to act outside God's instruction. His impatience cost him his kingdom and ultimately resulted in his rejection by God (1 Samuel 13:8–14).
Your waiting is not wasted. God may not come according to your timetable, but He is always faithful to His purpose and promises.
When everything seems to be against you, keep trusting, keep praying, and keep waiting on God. The delay may be testing your faith, developing your character, or preparing you for what He has in store.
Have a fruitful and blessed week.
God bless you! 🙏🏽
