Meditate.
As for me, I look to the LORD for help. I
wait confidently for God to save me, and my God will certainly hear me. Micah 7:7
There is a lot of waiting involved between believers and God. Believers wait on
God…and God waits on those who love Him.
You are my strength; I wait for you
to rescue me, for you, O God, are my fortress. Psalm 59:9
I wait quietly before God, for my
victory comes from him. Psalm 62:1
And we believers also groan, even though we
have the Holy Spirit within us as a foretaste of future glory, for we long for
our bodies to be released from sin and suffering. We, too, wait with
eager hope for the day when God will give us our full rights as his adopted
children, including the new bodies he has promised us. Romans 8:23
So the LORD must wait for you to come
to him so he can show you his love and compassion. For the LORD is a faithful
God. Blessed are those who wait for his help. Isaiah 30:18
We wait for the Lord and He waits for us. Confidently. We have the hope of knowing that He will save and rescue us. Such an assurance.
He has waited for us to come to Him. Now He hears our prayers…and we wait on
Him. Have you ever done so much waiting in your life? His love and grace are
worth the wait. Keep on hoping and waiting.
Prayer
~ Lord God, we who live by the Spirit eagerly wait to receive by faith what
You, righteousness God, have promised to us. From Galatians 5:5.
Verse
of Salvation ~ And remember that the heavenly Father to whom you pray has no
favorites. He will judge or reward you according to what you do. So you must
live in reverent fear of him during your time as "foreigners in the
land." For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life
you inherited from your ancestors. And the ransom he paid was not mere gold or
silver. It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God.
God chose him as your ransom long before the world began, but he has now
revealed him to you in these last days. 1 Peter 1:17-20
