Do I really have to Wait?

“Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage; Wait for the LORD!”

Psalm 27:14

Wait on the Lord, no matter how tempting it may be to step out and test your plan B. We all have back up plans "just in case" we believe that God is taking a bit longer than we like. It's no secret that we have grown to be impatient over the years. With everything else at our finger tips, its difficult to wait for something that you want "yesterday".

If God wants you to wait then it's in your best interest. He sees far down the line and he knows exactly what you need when you need it. Stepping out on what you desire will only delay what he has already prepared for you to recieve.

Many people often believe that their time is "running out" and they want to be able to experience the joy of what they have been earnestly praying for. Waiting is not easy and when you wait for a prolonged period of time it causes you to grow weary. Days turn into weeks, weeks into months and months into years. The waiting becomes unbearable and our heart becomes faint.

However, in your waiting season God is doing something amazing. He is working in you and preparing you to receive what he promised. He is preparing you to blossom into what you need to be to receive what you prayed for. You may be waiting on a spouse; hoping to become a parent; ready to be an entrepreneur or step out into ministry. No matter what it is, God knows when is the right time and will restore unto you the years that you patiently waited. He is the giver of time, if he kept you by his grace this long, surely he will continue to uphold you until the appointed time and beyond!

When you are feeling weak, tell him! He will step in and give you the grace and strength to remain. Stay faithful and he will bless you beyond what you could ever imagine for yourself.

What kind of friend have you been to God?

"I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you." John 15:15

We forget that God sees us as more than a servant, he calls us friends. We have a coveted postion that we fail to consider. There is nothing like a good friend. They are the ones you laugh with, a faithful shoulder to cry on and your greatest motivator. When you consider your friends in life and how much they mean to you, your heart melts.

You may know God as your healer, deliverer, savior, provider and beyond. But, TODAY, he wants to remind you that he is your best friend. He desires your friendship. He wants to be the one you laugh with, the faithful shoulder you'll cry on and your cheerleader when you need encouragement. He just wants you tell him everything without hestation, guilt or shame. He wants you to treat him like the friend you can't live without.

Your Obedience is Worth it!

"He replied, 'Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it". Luke 11:28

Whatever God is asking you to do no matter how uncomfortable, step out in obedience. You will have to sacrifice your time, plate, pride, ego, insecurities and everything you think you know. Our obedience prepares us for our next level. In order to reach our spiritual potential God will test our heart prior to trusting us with more.

When we cry out asking our heavenly Father to experience his glory, we are really asking for the molding and reshaping, to be less of ourselves and more like Christ. Our request opens the doors to pruning. There will be a season of testing that will humble us and prepare us to walk in the newness of his Spirit.

Today, God doesn't want you to look at what you are putting on the altar of sacrifice and be sorrowful. He wants you to earnestly fix your eyes on him and see what you will gain.

If you desire as Moses did to see God's glory then the first step is to obey what he is asking you to do.
