WAITING

"But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." Isaiah 40:31 KJV.

The above scripture gives a specific instruction; when you wait, your strength is renewed, you'll fly high as eagles, you will not be weak and you will not faint. Some are not good at waiting, some can't wait for just 3 mins for the popcorn in the microwave. We live in an instant society; fast food, buy now pay later, instant information on demand etc. Many unfortunately get impatient when they are waiting on God, they want the answer instantly and when they don't see it, they become weary. Waiting is a virtue and it's part of God's plan for our lives, you have to keep the frequency tuned and stay committed to the promise. 

An example of someone who waited was Abraham, even though God had made a promise to bless him and make him a father of many nations, it took several years for him to actually see the result as the father of many nations. He passionately waited on God even when others were laughing at him. Those who wait patiently on the Lord will never go wrong because at the end of the waiting, God will lift him/her up and renew their strength. Waiting builds your inner man, your character and your ability to trust in God only. This increases your faith.

Further Scripture Study: Psalm 27:14 

Declare This: Thank You Lord for the ability to wait on You, as I do this my strength, ability and faith in You gets stronger in Jesus name Amen.
