Wait... And Listen For God To Speak To You
BIBLE MEDITATION:
“The voice of the Lord is upon the waters: the God of glory
thundereth.” Psalm 29:3
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
Some people think it’s a waste of time to simply sit at
God’s feet and listen. It is not a waste of time to wait on God any more than a
woodsman is wasting time when he sharpens his axe.
In his booklet “Tyranny of the Urgent,” Charles Hummel
wrote, “When we fail to wait prayerfully for God’s guidance and strength, we
are saying, with our actions if not our lips, that we do not need
Him….Prayerful waiting on God is indispensable to effective service. Like the
time-out in a football game, it enables us to catch our breath and fix new
strategy….The need is not the call. The call must come from the Lord, Who knows
our limitations.”
ACTION POINT:
Read Psalm 29. Count how many times the phrase “voice of the
Lord” is repeated. Spend at least that many minutes listening for His voice and
trusting He will speak His will to you.
