Isaiah 40:31 ... But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their
strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and
not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Exhortation: Joan Boney ... apostle/prophet
We who "wait upon the Lord", serving HIM, are listening for "HIS voice". The world rushes about trying to make things happen. We who are of God and keeping ourselves under control of God have another way to do things. We are waiting for God to show us what to do rather than wearing ourselves out by trying to accomplish things by our own wisdom. At least that is what we should be doing. There are times we forget and start acting like the world but when we get at wits end we recognize our error and stop and turn to God.
When we do wait upon God it is like that eagle who effortlessly soars through the air. We hear what to do, we act upon what we hear. Hearing from God concerning the matter at hand is like that eagle waiting to catch the right current and then taking flight. It is like the surfer waiting to catch the "right" wave.
