“WAITING ON GOD means directing your attention to GOD in hopeful anticipation of what HE will do. It entails trusting The LORD with every fiber of your being, instead of trying to figure things out yourself. Waiting on GOD is the way HE designed you to live: all day, every day. GOD created you to stay conscious of HIM as you go about your daily duties. GOD has promised many blessings to those who wait on HIM: renewed strength, living above one’s circumstances, resurgence of hope, awareness of GOD’S continual Presence. Waiting on The LORD enables you to glorify GOD by living in deep dependence on GOD, ready to do HIS will. It also helps you to enjoy The LORD; in GOD’S Presence is fullness of Joy.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the LORD. LAMENTATIONS 3 : 24 – 26
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. ISAIAH 40 : 31
You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. PSALM 16 : 11 (NKJV)
Prayer: Lord help me to trust you with every fiber of my being and wait in hopeful anticipation for you to move. I’m ready to do your will, I surrender my will to yours. Show me any area of my life I’m still controlling. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
