I am Waiting In God

Today I felt the stirring of the Holy Spirit deep down in my soul. I have been on a continuous journey of seeking the Lord in this season. And I have come to the conclusion that although it is a season of promise, breakthrough and transition it has also been a season of great difficulty as we understand that our trials and tribulations have a purpose. Our trials have come to bring strength and to perfect the work of perseverance, hope and Godly character in us. Out of my meditation today the Lord brought forth a declaration that I became so excited to share with you. As I have been journeying through this season one of the issues that I have been personally battling with has been the spirit of impatience. Don’t get me wrong I believe God. Yes, I believe God even when my natural circumstances might say that God is not moving in my life; I still believe God. I believe His Word and promises concerning me. There is no doubt in my mind that the Lord will perform and perfect all things concerning me. Admittedly, the struggle and battle has been waiting for the appointed times of the Lord for my life. I have committed myself to the study of His Word and fully understand the command and the blessing of waiting on Lord; but I confess some days it is a real struggle. The promise of God for my life is both great and precious and as I wait eagerly, and with great expectation I am excited about eventual manifestations, both here on earth and in eternity.

My Decree: I decree and declare I am not just waiting on God; I am waiting in God because He knows the way I take and when He has tried me I will, I shall, I must come out as pure gold!! When I have pressed through the trail, when I have stood the test He shall raise me up for it is in Him that I live, it is in Him that I move, and it is in Him that I have my being. Hallelujah, I will wait in God. As I wait in the Lord I will praise Him, I will love Him and I will trust in Him.  Lord I declare, I don’t care how long it takes; I don’t mind waiting You are worth the wait.”

And the Lord says, “There is an expected end as you wait not only on Me but in Me. You will gain strength to keep on asking, to keep on seeking and to keep on knocking as you realize by revelation that you must rest in and hide yourself in Me. And when you have travailed and pressed in Me you will see that when the appointed time has come I have all the while been doing exceedingly and abundantly above all that you can ask or think.”

Habakkuk 2:2 (MSG) “And then God answered: "Write this. Write what you see. Write it out in big block letters so that it can be read on the run. This vision-message is a witness pointing to what's coming. It aches for the coming—it can hardly wait! And it doesn't lie. If it seems slow in coming, wait. It's on its way. It will come right on time.”

Psalm 40:1 (MSG) “I waited and waited and waited for God. At last he looked; finally he listened. He lifted me out of the ditch, pulled me from deep mud. He stood me up on a solid rock to make sure I wouldn't slip. He taught me how to sing the latest God-song, a praise-song to our God. More and more people are seeing this: they enter the mystery, abandoning themselves to God.”
