Waiting upon God.
WaitingRoom is a place where life looks like has come to a halt.
When have to meet somebody at say 10.30 and that person is late and you are waiting, that wait is unbearable.
when you go to doctors office, lets say they give an appointment at 10, and when you go in at 10 the wait will be like forever.
Waiting has 3 things.
Passage of Time
Confident Expectation
Waiting time is Seeking Time
Passage of Time
Psalm 130:5-6: “I wait for the LORD, my soul does wait, And in His word do I hope. My soul waits for the Lord More than the watchmen for the morning; Indeed, more than the watchmen for the morning,”
In Psalm 130:6, the psalmist says I will wait like a watchman waits.
The watchman watches the night times go hour by hour till he sees the morning.
the morning doesn't just in a twinkling second. but there is a passage of testing time.
Confident Expectation
Another aspect of this verse is The watchman knows for sure that morning is coming.
The watchman has no doubt that morning is coming, he is sure about morning, he knows its only hours away. But we sometimes sit in Gods waiting room with out a surety. It is the faith factor.
God is not pleased if we wait without trusting in Him.
In Psalm 62, the psalmist is sure that He is my Rock, my Salvation, my Defense and he says I will not be greatly moved.
If a person does not have this hope, even though he is waiting he will be disturbed.
Waiting time is Seeking Time
Lamentations 3:25
The Lord is good to those who wait for Him,
To the soul who seeks Him.
When we enter doctors waiting room, we just sit and wait and watch for the call.
but its different in Gods waiting room, we need to seek Him in His waiting room.
Seek Him in your waiting, Learn about Him through Word. Learn praying in this waiting time.
It is in this secret place of waiting your life with God is built.
my testimony of waiting.
Bless with Mouth, Curse with Heart
Verse 4: Don't be like the wicked who bless with their mouth, but curses inwardly.
If you have something , go and ask directly that is better for you rather than saying Blessings with mouth and inwardly cursing.
that's what happened with Miriam and Aaron whenever they see Moses , Brother Praise the Lord.
but they go into the tent and says, Does God only speak through Moses. Aren't we Important ?

Verse 10.
If Riches increase do not set your heart on them.
The problem is not with the riches, the problem is with your heart set on them.
As you know I joined this new job, i got a good hike from my previous job, the first thing I started doing is calculating how much tithe.
This heart is always prone towards riches, but set your heart on God, that will bring a blessing, wait on God with solid hope and trust and during this wait seek Him earnestly.
