Isaiah 40:31 says – But those who WAIT on the Lord shall renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not faint.
What happens in the place of waiting is STUDYING, KNOWING, BEHOLDING and BECOMING, with the help of the Holy Spirit
I searched up the Hebrew word for WAIT, and it’s qavah. Qavah means to be binded with something, to become one with something
2 Corinthians 3:18 says- But we all, with uncovered face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image, from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
We wait, we behold until we are one what we are beholding, we behold until we are binded with what we are beholding
BEHOLDING involves STILLNESS, focus and concentration
Psalms 46:10 says – Be STILL and KNOW that I’m God
You can only KNOW in stillness, you can only BECOME in stillness, even sheep don’t drink from troubled waters
We draw strength from stillness we draw strength from waiting
THE STRENGTH AND POWER WE RIDE ON COMES FROM THE PLACE OF STUDYING, BEHOLDING and KNOWING GOD IN HIS FULNESS.
Daniel 11:32- Those that KNOW their God shall be STRONG and they shall do EXPLOIT
Psalms 37:7
Be STILL before the Lord and WAIT patiently for him.
When we take time to WAIT, to be STILL, we find God, we know God, and be rest assured that where God is, strength is always available
