Psalms 37:7 NLT Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for Him to act. Don’t worry about evil people who prosper or fret about their wicked schemes.
Trusting and believing God requires patience. In fact, Hebrews 10:36 says we have need of patience. We can’t pray, fast, or cry long enough to speed up our breakthrough. Patience is a necessity.
While we wait, we can learn things about God, ourselves, and even the devil. With God, we can learn about His creativity and faithfulness. We’ll see how creative He can be to bring His faithful promises into our lives.
For us, we’ll learn how to develop our character, we’ll learn how to keep anxiousness at bay, and we’ll learn how to combat doubt from entering our minds.
With Satan, since he lacks creativity, we’ll begin to learn the pattern of his tired old tricks he uses to get us into doubt and unbelief. We’ll eventually understand the thoughts of fear of it not happening, the thoughts of unworthiness and time delay are a joke.
Don’t worry about the wicked getting what you want. It may not last forever. Wait patiently for God to provide His promises to you, and you’ll enjoy them forever.
