TOPIC: WAITING UPON THE LORD

SCRIPTURE: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint - Isaiah 40:31

MEMORY VERSE: Acts 1:7-8

DIGGING DEEP: Waiting on the Lord is camping with God. It is not been too busy to seek Gods heart, His ways and His face. It is having time with God no matter the tightness of your schedules. It is putting God has a major part of your schedules. It is taking time out from the presence of men and embedding yourself into the atmosphere of the throne of grace. There are folks today who wait on God only when there is a need at hand, and there are those who don't wait upon the Lord at all.  Waiting on the Lord helps you maintain the steam of consistency with the Lord. Consistently waiting upon the Lord brings you to a realm of 'high tension flow' of supernatural electrical charge. It is a generator of strong intimacy with the Father. It emboldens our spirit, and empowers our faith. What makes us grow consistenly deep in the Lord is our contact with Him. Learn not to make your contact with God not seasonal but daily and improve to the level that it is instant in season and out of season. By this your spiritual temperature will not be subnormal but perfectly normal.
Our anchor Scripture reveals three great effect of waiting on the Lord:
1. Renewed Strength: Those that wait upon the Lord are always fresh in the spirit. They are not dry, everytime they speak the word, it is fresh, their ideas are fresh and even their personality is fresh. There is renewed energy, zeal and passion. Many are moribound and weak in pursuit of God and their dreams, assignment and calling because of the lack of energy. You cannot consistenly be waiting upon God and lack the energy you need for life and destiny.
2. Mount Up: There is no way you will be waiting on God and you mount down in life. You always mount up because the one you are focusing upon is the Most High.
3. Your Steps Are Progressive: It does not matter your state either you are running, walking or flying you can't faint or be weary. This means you can't get frustrated or tired along the way, you just keep on making spiritual and physical progress.
HOW TO WAIT UPON THE LORD:
A. Periodic Consecrational Fast: You can't wait on God fasting and your life won't be on the fast lane because fasting is the sacrifice of flesh before the altar of God and so the weight of flesh cannot slow you down.
B. Consistent Praying Life: Praying is a powerful tool of communion with God. Waiting upon the Lord empowers your communion with God and increases unction.
C. Persistent Study Of The Word Of God And Relevant Books: Reading Gods word exposes your mind to the mind of the Lord and you begin to mind the things He minds. And He mends the things that ought to be mended in your life.
D. Untiring Desire For God: Waiting is sponsored by your passion and desire for God. It is the vehicle to getting Divine attention anytime because God flows in the direction of the heart of those who desire Him.
Today develop and unquenchable desire to wait upon God.

PRAYER:  O Lord i wait on you, give me strength to pursue your asssignment for my life in Jesus' name.
