Wait on God

By Pastor Dennis Williams

Psalms 27:14 – Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

Waiting causes a lot of stress, anxiety, fear, and loss of hope

  • Human beings want to make it happen
  • God doesn’t work as fast as we want Him to (at times)
    • God’s timing is important
    • If we move ahead of the Lord
    • Situations may not work out as expected
    • Waiting is the most challenging part
  • The Lord meets us where ever we are
  • As we learn to wait on Him and His timing
  • While waiting on the Lord develop your relationship with Him
    • Pray as much as you can and stay in the Word
  • Jesus encouraged us to build a prayer life in Matthew 6:6

WAITING FOR YOUR PERFECT MATE

Proverbs 18:22 – [Whoso] findeth a wife findeth a good [thing] and obtaineth favour of the LORD.

Genesis 2:18 – And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him

Genesis 2:18 – And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him

  • Marriage is God’s perfect will (a commitment)
  • And God wants to bring the right mate
  • Don’t try and rush God
  • God may see preparation needed
    • For you and your future mate
    • It is in God’s timing
    • Not waiting of God may cause you to lose patience
      • And chose the wrong one
      • Wait on the Lord

WAITING TO BE RELEASED IN YOUR TRUE CALLING IN THE LORD

All believers are called to be ministers (in the harvest field)

Mark 16:15-16 Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel

Isaiah 6:8: Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?” Then I said, “Here am I. Send me!”

Romans 1:1: Paul, a bond-servant of Christ Jesus, called as an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God

  • Let the Lord direct your call as a minister
  • It is one step at a time
    • There is a preparation for the ministry
    • God has to grow us in the Spirit
    • God knows how to train ministers
    • It can take years, NOT MONTHS
    • King David was anointed king at 16 but became king at age 30
      • Some want to do the big thing right away
      • Wait on the Lord
    • Develop patience by staying in the Word
    • And continual development of your prayer and study life
