PREPARE…Always be ready. You have to be ready! In waiting, you are working. You are working the perfect way and will of God. In the bible, the story of David fascinates me. David was no stranger to the wait. He was chosen king, and yet he had to wait even when Saul was already rejected, dethroned and gone. And as jealousy and vitriol grows, David would have to wait even longer for the throne was assured.
David had to wait patiently in the journey of becoming a model leader. But waiting isn’t wasted when #Godisinit. Waiting is a classroom where character is moulded, purpose refined and faith is forged. Integrity is baked in the oven and furnace of trials and tribulations. Waiting doesn’t mean inactivity; it means being strategic, preparing and planning for the next task, yet refusing the temptation to prematurely grab what God has already given and granted.
And the longer you wait, the more you see who is authentic and who isn’t. In fact, the more you wait, the more you discover that waiting isn’t just about what you’re hoping for, it’s about what’s coming, what its impact would mean and the character it would require. To whom much is given much is expected. The longer the process, the greater the quality.
Make no mistake, waiting is not a waste. It is an investment into what’s coming. The good thing is that the wait is not forever. It is the perfect will of God. Yes, we may be anxious, worried and suffering. But then we are all vessels in the act of plan, act and timing of the Maker. Our timing is not God’s timing. We cannot judge solely on what we see or are experiencing. Let us not be too anxious by what we see or even by the schemes of the sinister and wicked.
He who promised us is faithful. He will consummate His Word and fulfill His promise!
Blessed Sunday!
