Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. James 5:7-8

We must wait upon the Lord and continue to do what He called us to do until He says otherwise. When we know this truth, we are able to be still and patient. I know it is not always easy for we want what we want but to step ahead of God is dangerous. His timing is perfect and when we react and then act on our own emotions and feelings, it is deadly territory for we are now out of His will. And that my friends, is the beginning of disaster. Please understand that our flesh will lie to us and the enemy will whisper in our ear the Lord is not listening, the Lord is too busy, the Lord does not care. But we must rebuke these lies in the name of Jesus for these thoughts are unholy and then we must remain steadfast on His truth. What is it that you have been waiting on? Are you beginning to grow impatient? When we wait upon the Lord, it means to trust in the Lord. We may not know where we are headed but we know enough to know He has it under control.
