I’M NOT WAITING... ARE YOU?
Have you ever wondered whether you are waiting on God or God is waiting on you? It is important that you know! Consider this: When God says it's yours, it's yours! Go and possess it! It is no longer you waiting on God, but God waiting on you!
Josh 18:3 So Joshua said to the Israelites: “How long will you wait before you begin to take possession of the land that the LORD, the God of your fathers, has given you?
There is a waiting upon God that the Bible speaks of that has great benefit, but it is not this kind of waiting. The waiting in the word of God is the time that you spend in the presence of God, in prayer, to get his heart and mind. We most definitely need to live our lives in the presence of God and in prayer, but when God has spoken to you about what you should do, it’s best to begin doing what he has said immediately! When God has spoken, waiting is no longer necessary; doing should be your only response. Never forget this important principle, “Delayed obedience is disobedience.” Great things are ahead for those who will trust God enough to obey and act upon what God has said promptly! God will never give you a task that, with his help, you can’t conqueror!
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." Deuteronomy 31:6
Hebrews 13:5-6 Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?”
Because God is with you, he declares you as more than a conqueror! Why wait when God has given you the go-ahead? Oh yes! It is time to get in this game! It is time to go and get it! …
