WORD OF HOPE FOR TODAY by Bro. Rolly Custodio
Waiting
‘My times are in Your hand…’ Psalms 31:15
Today’s
Insight
The Psalmist writes, ‘…I trust in You, O Lord; I say, “You are my God.”
My times are in Your hand…’ (vv. 14-15 NKJV). As you walk with God you’ll find
that you spend more time waiting than you do receiving. And when you receive
what you’re waiting for, then you’ll begin waiting for something else! So if
you don’t learn to wait with joy, you’ll live in frustration. Paul writes, ‘Let
us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint
not’ (Galatians 6:9 KJV). ‘Due season’ is when God knows the time is right, not
when you think it is. God has a set time for accomplishing things in your life,
so you might as well settle down and wait because that’s when it will happen,
and not before.
God knows what you need, when you need it, and how to get it to you. You
ask, ‘And what am I supposed to do while I’m waiting?’ Trust Him! One Bible
teacher writes: ‘God has taught me to keep living the life I now have while I’m
waiting for the things that are in my heart to come to pass. We become so intent
on trying to give birth to the next thing, that we neither enjoy nor take care
of the things at hand. I had a vision from God ten years before I began to see
it fulfilled. During those years I believe I missed a lot of joy by trying to
give birth outside of God’s timing. Learn to enjoy where you are, while you are
waiting to get to where you want to be.’
Parallel Verses: Job
38-39, Matt 7:15-29, Ps 74:12-23, Pr 2:7-8
Today’s Prayer
Heavenly Father, Thank you for your Word today.
Lord thank you for teaching me on how to wait on you. Lord strengthens me to have
patience on my need which I believe that you will give me a perfect answer.
Lord helps me to learn to wait on my prayer request and put always in my heart
to be patience while serving you and others and be faithful always in doing the
ministry that you gave to me for your glory In Jesus’ Name. Amen!
Prayer for Salvation
Lord
I admit I am a sinner I repent of all my sins and I receive you into my heart
as my personal Lord and Savior Amen. If you mean that prayer above from the
bottom of your heart you are now saved. It is God’s Word promise in John 3:16
