Every person wants God’s blessings, but do we want to do our part to receive them? God’s blessings are conditional on our doing what God’s Word tells us to do.
Isaiah 30:18 – “So the Lord must wait for you to come to Him so he can show you his love and compassion. For the Lord is a faithful God. Blessed are those who wait for His help.”
Are we waiting for God’s help, or is God waiting for us to come to Him? How many people want God on their terms and conditions? We must come to God on His terms and conditions, and then God will show us His love and compassion in our lives. God loves you, but we must respond in love for the Lord.
The Lord is faithful to us, but we must open our hearts to Him and receive Him into our lives. Then, God will show, reveal, and manifest His love and compassion in our lives.
“Blessed are those who WAIT FOR HIS HELP! We need to learn to wait for God’s Will, God’s Plan, and God’s timing in our lives. By faith we need to wait for Him, because in His time He makes all things beautiful.”
Today, do not make the Lord wait for you, but let us learn to wait for His help in our lives! “He is our refuge and strength, a very present help in the time of trouble.”
