This is an update as I am going to be posting parts of my morning quiet time.  If you no longer want to receive these posts, please let me know.

Here is an acrostic for WAIT

Wholly

Absolutely

Intentionally

Trusting

To wait is an expression of humility and trust.  Saul did not wait.  He took things into his own hands and suffered severe consequences.  1 Samuel 15:22 says, “To obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.”  Pride doesn’t trust.

Psalm 27:14.  Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord.  Isaiah 40:31.  He will renew our strength as we wait in humility.

To wait is to watch with expectation.  Psalm 62:5.  Our expectation is to be on Him.  Impatience, worry, and negative dialogue cause emotional fatigue.  Habakkuk 2:1.  “I stand on my watch and look to see what You will say to me” are the words I use before I start my quiet time.  God instructed David to wait until he heard the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees~then advance (2 Samuel 5:24).

Here is an acrostic for watch.
