Blessed Are Those Who Wait

RT
Isaiah,30 : 18. "Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you; He rises to show you compassion, for the Lord is a God of justice, blessed are all who wait for Him."

God is telling us to be patient, we are to show him that we are able to handle any waiting time that he has for us, this waiting time can be from a prayer request and God will give the answer in His time not ours, we are being tested, are we able to handle this period of time? and He wants to show us His compassion, and you will be blessed during this waiting period, what better way is there for you to be blessed, all you have to do is to wait for the Lord.
If we only come to the Lord in prayer and wait for our answer God will hear us, but we have to go to God in faith and pray in faith, then and only then will God hear us, again we must go through a waiting time.

When we are born again into the Kingdom of God we receive the Holy Spirit, again we have to wait until the right time for us to receive our new life.

When we know the Lord personally, we will not rush ahead and try to do things that are not of Him, as we desire His love to come into our hearts.

How many times have you had something done wrong to you and you have said, I'll get you back or I'll pay you back for that?
God says to us that we are not to pay back to anyone, He tells us to hand it over to Him and let Him deal with it.

PSALM 27;14. "Wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord".
Here is an encouragement you have to be strong while you are at the stage of waiting, let your heart be filled with love.

PSALM 33;20, "We wait in hope for the Lord, He is our help and our shield".
While we are waiting all kinds of problems can come on you, this is where satan can attack you, but ask the Lord to protect you as He is the shield for your mind, soul and body.

How many times do we get caught up with the wrong ways of the unbelievers, and we see that they are going forward, but they only go so far then they fall into the pit, we must not follow them as that is not the way that God wants us to go, so we should just wait patiently for the Lord to work out and to show us the correct way to go, and then we will reap in the good harvest.

PSALM 130;5, "I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, and in His word I put my hope."

THE WORD OF THE LORD IS TRUTH.
