Keep Waiting for God - Isaiah 40:31

So many times we read the scripture from the book of Isaiah 40: v31 (Please read it if you don't know what it says) and many times I hear Christians saying it but they don't follow it. In this verse God says He will do four things but only for those who will wait on Him. This is what He said,
1)He shall renew their strength
2)They shall mount up with wings like eagles
3)They shall run and not be weary
4)They shall walk and not faint
In other words it means that God acts on behalf of those who wait for Him. Praise God!
I remembered a story told by a minister of God of a person who waited on God.
"Lord I want to learn to wait upon you."So every night from about 12 onwards right up to one, he consecrated one hour just to wait on God. He would enter his prayer closet and kneel before Him saying, "Lord I am waiting for you."Many months passed and after many months one day he came to God and he said, "Lord this is the last night that I am waiting on you." And towards the end of his waiting he felt the presence of the Lord standing behind him. He did not dare to look around. He wondered what to say, and what to do. Before he could say anything he felt the Lord putting His hand on his shoulder. And he felt that the hand was wet.He said, "Lord why is your hand wet?
"The Lord said,"I am weeping because many of my people did not wait for Me. They always rush ahead of Me. They always do things by themselves. And my people did not wait for Me."
When he heard that he started crying and he started weeping. And that experience changed his whole life.

My brethren, are you waiting for God to perform His word in your life?
Don't worry! may be we have learned the same thing from this message:
That, it doesn't matter how long we have waited or how long we will wait for Him but the important thing is to keep waiting for Him. Because He is the one who gives life, the grace and He is in control of everything.
As christian believers we must wait for Him, It will be sad to hear that God is weeping because we have failed to wait on Him.

Please ask God for the grace to wait for Him in Jesus name.

God bless you

A radical change is expected and required when a person comes to faith in Jesus Christ. When no change becomes apparent, we begin to wonder...
