OK, as I promised, here's what I learned last Sunday. But I'm sorry that this is late.

WAIT ON THE LORD

Isa 40:31

But those who wait on the LORD
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.


What does it mean to wait on the Lord anyway?

= To look passionately for guidance. (Ps. 25:5)
= To abide in God. (Ps. 27:14)
= To wait for an opportunity to serve God. (Ps. 123:4)
= To wait for God's plan to unfold. (Ps. 62:11)
= To rely on God's power. (Luke 24:49)


What are the benefits of waiting for the Lord?

= Spiritual Strength (Isa 41:10, 2 Corin. 4:16)
= Spiritual Excellence (Phil 3:14, Deut. 28:13)
= Spiritual Zeal (Phil 3:14, Heb 12:1-3)
= Spiritual Endurance (Mat 24:13, Phil 1:6)

You will be blessed when you study this!
