Mr. Wilson Trapp Jr.
What I got out of the sermon “Wait on the Lord” preached by Rev. Antonio Baker on Tuesday September 26, 2006. The sermon was preached from Psalms 27 with the focus on verse 14.
Psalms 27 verse 14:
14. Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.
Waiting is not easy: waiting is a difficult and time consuming process. It can even be irritating and aggravating. Impatience in many cases can cause doubt. It is particularly difficult to wait on God to answer your prayers. You know that you are a saint, a child of God and storms are brewing in your life and in the midst of your situation you call on God but He has not answered you yet. The storm is still ragging, you don’t know how much you can take and it appears that the worst is about to happen; you may wonder “where is God”.
God is Faithful, He will show up: It’s not easy but we must have faith in God that He will show up. He may not come when you want Him, but he is always on time, and when He shows up He will show out. We must have faith in God. If we study the Word of God we find numerous historical examples of what God had done for those who have waited on Him to move in their lives. We can recall times when has answered our prayers, He came to our rescue and straightened it out and many times he blessed us exceeding above what we prayed for. He is faithful to us and we have to have faith in Him.
Difficult times will come: Difficult times will come in your life no matter how much you go to church, no matter how much you read the Bible, no matter how faithful you are paying your tithes hell will break out in your life. You do not have to look for it, it will find you. Folk will not like you even in the church, you may be persecuted, but don’t be discouraged just wait on the Lord.
Trouble won’t last: We have to realize and know that sooner or late we will have to face troublesome times. But don’t be worried because God will hide
