Dr. Barclay – Something to Think About
When wait on God and seek to hear from him we will be blessed.
Psalm 27:14
Wait on the Lord;
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, I say, on the Lord!
1 Kings 19:12
and after the earthquake a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice.
Psalm 46:10
Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth!
In today’s world it is hard to wait and hard to be still and hard to find quietness. The Lord is calling us to break away from all the tasks and stresses of the day and focus on him and give him the reverence that he is due. We need to acknowledge his Lordship and know that he is God. When we give the Lord quality time and true devotion, we will hear his still small voice and be strengthened and receive courage to face the world and deal with hardships it may present.
The tenets that God set in the Bible still stand. We need to be still and wait on God and he will bless our lives to the fullest.
Pastor Caroline Barclay –We need to trust the Lord with humility and he will handle the future according to his plan.
We need to step back and wait on God and realize it is not us that has to do it all, he simply wants us to be part of what he is doing. God does not want us to look back on the past, but to simply step into the footsteps he has prepared for us. We can rest in God and be content to follow where he leads.
Isaiah 58:11
The Lord will guide you continually,
And and satisfy your soul in drought,
And strengthen your bones;
You shall be like a watered garden,
And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.
God wants to guide us and satisfy us with good things. We simply need to accept his leading and let him take full control of our lives. In our trials and troubles of 2019 God will be there throughout and see us through.
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.
God calls us to humble ourselves and carry out his plans for the future.
Proverbs 16:19
Better to be of a humble spirit with the lowly,
Than to divide the spoil with the proud.
When wait on God and seek to hear from him we will be blessed.

Wait on the Lord;
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, I say, on the Lord!
