FAITH CAPSULE: Truly wait on God to locate God.

Isaiah 64

Focusing on God will wait on God and not waste time but believe in the word of God. Word of God might sound foolish but never fail to deliver those who believe in His word. It is the word of God to ask, seek and knock. To be Asking, Seeking, Knocking for God’s answer is evidence of having faith in God, looking up to Jesus. Hebrews 12:2 records, “looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Jesus the author of our faith has given to all the way to receive by stating, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.” (Matthew 7:7-8)
Truly, waiting on God demands to trust and hoping by asking, seeking and knocking before the manifestation of expectation. When there is no waiting on God is rushing away from God’s answer and turn to waste. 
King Saul could not wait as instructed for him to receive his expectations. 
To obey and wait is to trust and hope on God but Saul could not wait on 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 in God must understand to wait and endure period. 
Waiting can be a delay but never a waste of time. 
God testifies about David when Saul failed to wait on God. God spoke to Saul’s disobedience through Samuel, “But now your kingdom shall not continue. The Lord has sought for Himself a man after His own heart, and the Lord has commanded him to be commander over His people because you have not kept what the Lord commanded you.” (1 Samuel 13:14) 
David knows the heart of God with understanding what it means as he consistently obeys God by waiting on God before making his moves. 
The bible records about the prodigal son that could not wait for God’s timing, “A certain man had two sons. And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me.’ So he divided to them his livelihood. And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, journeyed to a far country, and there wasted his possessions with prodigal living.” (Luke 15:11-13) 
Younger son could not wait for God’s appointed time to receive a portion of good that falls to him. 
Indirectly, the prodigal son made move outside of God’s timing for his life because he could not wait. One that believes will ask, seek and knock persistently for God’s appointed time.

Prayer for today: Ask God for His power upon you to be waiting on Him.
