FAITH CAPSULE: All situations demand to wait on God. 

1 Samuel 13  

Samuel instructed King Saul to wait for lawful sacrifice before going to war against the Philistines, but he could not wait.
As the Philistines gathered together to fight the Israelites, King Saul could not wait for seven days, as instructed by Samuel.
1 Samuel 13:9 records, “So Saul said, “Bring a burnt offering and peace offerings here to me.” And he offered the burnt offering.” 
King Saul tragically disobeyed the Law of Moses (Leviticus 1) as instructed by Samuel.
Is waiting on God to address your confrontation impossible for you?
Get to know the truth, waiting in obedience to instruction rooted in the word of God to culminate expectations. 
Samuel arrived at the disobedience of Saul and asked, “What have you done?” 
Saul answered, “When I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you did not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered together at Michmash, then I said, ‘The Philistines will now come down on me at Gilgal, and I have not made supplication to the Lord.’ Therefore I felt compelled, and offered a burnt offering.” (1 Samuel 13:11-12)
It is always foolish to disobey the command of God.
Waiting for God is giving attention to a jealous God. 
Psalmist admonishes, “Indeed, let no one who waits on You be ashamed…” (Psalm 25:3)
A believer must understand waiting on God to endure a period of waiting without a doubt.
Waiting on God can be a delay but never a waste of time. 
In a time of waiting, among what to exercise as a believer must engage are:
Be of good courage; rest in the Lord; wait patiently for Him; do not fret; keep His way; let your soul wait silently.
The above truth about waiting is identifiable in the scriptural verses listed below:
Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord! (Psalm 27:14)
Psalm 37:7, “Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.”
Psalm 37:9, “For evildoers shall be cut off; But those who wait on the Lord, They shall inherit the earth.”
Psalm 37:34, “Wait on the Lord, And keep His way, And He shall exalt you to inherit the land; When the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.”
Psalm 40:1, “I waited patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me, And heard my cry.”
Psalm 62:1, “Truly my soul silently waits for God; From Him comes my salvation.”
Psalm 62:5, “My soul, wait silently for God alone, for my expectation is from Him.”
Hosea 12:6, “… wait on your God continually.”
All situations waiting on God are resolve-able to the glory of God.
God is true to answer when waiting on Him patiently by abiding in His word obediently. 

Prayer for today: Ask to be enabled with the strength waiting on Him.
