"Wait on the Lord—',

Back to The Pastor's Morning Visit

"Wait on the Lord—and He shall save you." Prov 20:22

Beloved, it is your privilege in every perplexity and trial:
to go to the Lord, 
to spread your case before Him, 
to plead His precious promises, and 
to wait expecting Him to appear for you. 

Wait on the Lord . . .
for light to discover the nature and design of your trouble; 
for wisdom that you may act honourably, and endure scripturally; 
for power to sustain you under, and bring you through it;
and for consolation to make you happy and resigned under it. 

Wait upon the Lord . . . 
in earnest, simple, persevering prayer; 
in searching, reading, and meditating upon His holy Word; 
in self-examination as to your views, motives, and designs. 

Wait upon the Lord, believing that He will . . .
fulfil His Word, 
answer your prayers, and 
send you deliverance. 

Beloved, let us look to, trust in, and wait upon our God continually.
