Psalm 27:14 - Wait on the Lord

“Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord!”

Psalm 27:14



Sometimes waiting can be hard. We are used to doing something. Waiting forces us to rely on God and God alone to work things out. It is putting our trust in Him and allowing Him to bring things to pass. Maybe you have been praying about something and you have been patiently waiting for God to do what He has promised you. Don’t lose your hope. Keep on waiting and put your full hope and trust in Him. We can be spiritually blessed as we wait on Him to act. Isaiah 40:31 says “But those that wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like the eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.” This verse is a promise. Blessings come to those that wait on the Lord. Let Him be God and let Him work things out. If He does the work it will be right. If we decide to interfere and take action, we may make mistakes that takes years for the Lord to make right. Keep the hope in you alive. Don’t let your faith waver. God is faithful. Hebrews 10:23 says “Let us hold fast to the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.”


Lord, we thank You that You are faithful and true. Father, may we wait on You to work things out after we have prayed about them. Help us to be of good courage and strengthen our hearts as we wait on You. Help us not to do anything on our own (in the flesh) that could make matters worse and take years for You to make things right. Give us Your patience. We put our hope, faith, and trust in You. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
