Know How to Wait
"Whoever believes will not act hastily."
~ Isaiah 28:16
"Make haste to keep the Lord's commandments; but do not make haste in any impatient or improper sense.
When others are flying hither and thither as if their wits had failed them, the believer shall be quiet, calm, and deliberate, and so shall be able to act wisely in the hour of trial. He shall not haste in his expectations, craving his good things at once and on the spot; but he will wait God's time. He shall not haste by plunging into wrong or questionable action.
Faith makes no more haste than good speed, and thus it is not forced to go back sorrowfully by the way which it followed heedlessly.
How is it with me? Am I believing, and therefore, keeping to the believer's pace, which is walking with God? Peace, fluttering spirit! Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
Please pray this prayer with me this moring. Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us of all our sins, our debts, and our trespasses against You and man, as we forgive those who are indebted to us, and those who hae trespassed against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from all evil:For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Honor, and the Glory, forever. It is in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!
