The Importance of Exercising Patience

6 पैकी 6 दिवस

The Takeaway

If Saul had waited a few more hours for Samuel, God would have established his kingdom over Israel forever. Impatience cost Saul an eternal dynasty and robbed his descendants of the honor of being kings in Israel. Impatience and a hasty decision also cost Esau his birthright.

Though the stories of these Old Testament men are tragic, they are cautionary tales that remind us of the importance of waiting on the Lord and being obedient during the waiting season.

We hear the phrase waiting on the Lord a lot, but what does it really mean? Well the word “wait” means to “remain stationary in expectation.”

It is easy to assume the act of waiting is passive; however, to be still and trust the Lord is to be intentional about placing our hope and faith in him instead of turning to fleeting pleasures and quick fixes that can never truly satisfy or fulfill.
