We know that in this life, in this world, it can become extremely difficult to wait upon The LORD for our needs and our hearts desires. Our flesh wants to act and react on its own, grasping for the things of this world which are bound in the main three deadly sins: lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh, and the pride of life - which from these three sins comes all sin (1 John 2:16). To truly wait upon The LORD is to be still and KNOW that He is GOD (Psalm 46:1). To be still, we must not be scurrying about frantically worrying about how we shall be provided for, nor should we be trying to take matters into our own hands to take care of these problems for ourselves. To truly wait upon The LORD and to be still and know that He is GOD, is to be grounded so firmly in our faith in Him that all we have to do is lift all things up unto His Throne in prayer and supplication, and go about normal routine daily living without fret or worry but rather trusting that our GOD already has this all worked out.
In Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus is telling us "Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?" He goes on to elaborate and to teach use that our Heavenly Father feeds all of the life on earth, providing for the birds of the air and the flowers of the field; how much more then shall He provide for His children? GOD says to us in the following verses that if we seek Him first before any other thing, if we seek His kingdom and His righteousness first, then shall all of these things be added unto us. GOD also promises that those who delight themselves in The LORD and wait upon Him, that He will give us the desires of our hearts (Psalm 37:4). This falls in with our daily needs and provision, along with all of the things that we want to have in this life.
We have a promise to hang on to here: that whatsoever we need or whatsoever we desire in this life, GOD will not only provide for us but He is able and willing to do so and to give us the desires of our hearts according to His perfect Will. What is the secret to obtaining the favor of The LORD? The secret is this: that if we should seek Him, His righteousness, and His kingdom first; that if we should wait upon The LORD, delighting ourselves in Him; that if we would just be still and KNOW that He is GOD... He shall provide ALL THINGS exceedingly abundantly far greater than anything we could ever ask for or speak (Ephesians 3:14-21). For those who truly wait upon The LORD, there is another amazing promise from Him which is found in Isaiah 40:28-31: that our GOD Who is the Creator of all of the universe faints not nor does He sleep or grow weary, and He gives power to us when we are faint so that we shall have strength, for those who wait upon The LORD shall have renewed strength and mount up with wings of eagles - we shall run and not grow weary and we shall walk and not faint.
Little children, we leave you with this: The LORD our GOD is The Most High Throne and King of all (Psalm 95:3). At the name of Jesus Christ: every knee shall bow and every tongue must confess that He is and GOD Sovereign and Supreme (Philippians 2:10-11). If GOD is for you, WHO can be against you (Romans 8:31)? Therefore trust in The LORD your God, Who is Creator of all of the heavens and the earth and commit your way only unto Him alone. Seek Him with all of your heart, then you shall surely find Him (Jeremiah 29:13). When you truly find Him is when you are seeking Him first before and above all other things, waiting upon Him, delighting in Him, resting in Him, and when you do this: He shall provide everything that you need, He shall give you the desires of your heart, and He shall He shall renew your strength. For if He is above all other gods and thrones in this universe and He delights Himself in you, coming in to be Jehovah-Jireh: The All-Sustaining One (Genesis 22:14) on your behalf: YOU HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR FOR NOR TO WANT FOR. HE'S GOT YOU! Jesus Christ is the Bread of Life and the Living Waters (John 6:35). All who come to Him shall never hunger nor shall they ever thirst again. So we say then: Wait Upon The LORD, And Call Upon His Name: He Shall Hear You and Provide For You.
Be encouraged in Jesus' name!
"Now The Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all." (2 Thessalonians 3:16)
"Now The Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all." (2 Thessalonians 3:16)
Keep us in Prayer that the advancing of His glorious Kingdom comes through us as we wait for His powerful day of arrival. God Bless you in the mighty and powerful name of Jesus Christ our LORD!
