WAIT UNTO THE LORD

Waiting is what all of us find very difficult, but blessed are those who are waiting for and have been waiting for and will be waiting for the Lord and the Savior. He is the fortress which is stronger for our safety. He is always present in trouble.

a stronger tower for our refuge. He is our deliverer.

one of my favorite preachers said that “We often associate waiting with inaction, but waiting is faith in action.”

Those who wait for Him He will refresh. You will not get weary and exhausted. He said come to me all who are heavy burden and I will give you rest. He promised to give a lighter burden of an old rugged cross for you to carry to the finished line of victory, triumph, greatness that will last to eternity. May your nearts be strengthened amidst all the troubles that you are going through for the Lord Your God is watching over you. For that reason, there is no reason for worrying about what to put on as clothes, what to eat or what to belong to you, if He is in control and complete majesty then He never fail you. He will provide.. we call him Yehovah JIREH. this means that He provides. Abraham had nothing to give when he almost sacrificed his only son Isaac. God did not hesitate to provide for him a lamb to give to the Lord. As long you have the interest and guts of doing what gives glory and honor to the Lord, he will not disappoint you at all.

Waiting upon the Lord is no easy virtue.

Many fail, many stumble and many have been into the bottomless abyss without any excuse because failure to wait a little longer for the Lord.

God uses these trials to work in us—a slow, evolving work that begins with endurance, creates character, and culminates with a hope that won’t disappoint.
