I choose today and everyday of my life to wait on you.
Thank you for your strength to do this Lord.
Today : Waiting On God
TODAY’S VERSE:
“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)
TODAY’S THOUGHT:
Today’s passage is one of the secrets to living a joyful life. Other translations use the word “hope” or “trust” instead of wait.
But with the word “wait” you have hope and trust in action.
Waiting is a verb.
So often WE want to do something and don’t wait to let God do His will.
We want to “fix” things when God wants to bring change. Waiting is often the hardest work we can do.
And the most profitable.
So when you are worried sick – wait on the Lord.
When you first get up in the morning– wait on the Lord.
When your child is late getting home – wait on the Lord.
When your money is running out – wait on the Lord.
When you get discouraging news – wait on the Lord.
Today, wait on the Lord and He will renew your strength.
He will help you soar like an eagle.
He will help prevent you from getting weary or fainting.
TODAY’S PRAYER:
Father, help me to learn to wait on You.
Help me trust You and put all my hope in You.
Thank You that You have promised that I will not grow weary or faint. AMEN
TODAY’S AFFIRMATION & MEDITATION:
When I wait on God, He renews my strength.
How do we wait?
Chances are slowing down and meditating is hard because our tendency is to be busy, be thinking, be doing.
So today, STOP!
Take a deep breath and give yourself five minutes to just “wait” in God’s presence.
Just wait. Nothing said, nothing done, just wait.
When you are through, thank God for His presence with you and set a time to do it again.
Watch, over time, He will renew your strength!
