“Waiting Quietly”

 “Waiting Quietly”

 

I wait quietly before God, for my victory comes from Him.  He alone is my Rock and my Salvation, my Fortress where I will never be shaken.   Psalm 62:1-2

 

This Psalm was written by King David, who was evidently in a time when he was facing TREASON.  It could have been when Absalom was rebelling against his father, the King.  Or maybe it was another of David’s many enemies.  Nevertheless, David was in some TROUBLING times. And he faces this problem with his FOCUS solely on the ALMIGHTY GOD.  

 

That is why he was able to WAIT QUIETLY, because he KNEW that his VICTORY comes from God.  The King’s TRUST in the ALMIGHTY was the reason he could WAIT QUIETLY, without whining, or complaining.  David could WAIT upon God PATIENTLY for his VICTORY, which he KNEW came from the ALMIGHTY GOD, and was as good as done already.  And David was SURE of GOD being his ROCK and his SALVATION, and his FORTRESS, where he WOULD NEVER be SHAKEN.  He could be STEADFAST in his TRUST, and he could WAIT QUIETLY before God.

 

 

We are facing a NEW YEAR, with uncertainties.  Some of which may be PLEASANT, and some may be DISASTROUS.  We can face these UNCERTAINTIES like King David, by TRUSTING in the ALMIGHTY GOD, and that will help us WAIT QUIETLY before God.  And we do that, by ACKNOWLEDGING that God ALONE is our ROCK and our SALVATION.  And He is our FORTRESS where we can NEVER BE SHAKEN.  

 

 

But, to do that, you MUST have a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with the ALMIGHTY GOD, and be able to TRUST Him, by WAITING QUIETLY before Him.  And the first step of having a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with Him is; to STOP running from His Holy Spirit, and SURRENDER yourself to God’s Son, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, who GAVE His Life to SAVE your SOUL from an ETERNITY  in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there.  To do this, you MUST ADMIT that YOU are a SINNER, in NEED of the SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST.  You MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  You MUST CONFESS your SINS to Him, and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  Then you MUST BE WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your SINFUL LIFESTYLE, and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  You MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION, and WAIT QUIETLY before GOD, because your VICTORY comes from HIM. And He ALONE is your ROCK, SALVATION, and your FORTRESS where YOU will NEVER be SHAKEN!!  So, do this NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON!!!  Don’t Be Left Behind!!!
