SLOW DOWN

Many of us have seen or become an impatient driver.You know the type? Have you ever looked in your rear view mirror only to notice how fast and sporadically they are changing lanes trying to reach their destinations? You watch in amazement as you patiently continue to drive the speed limit. Then you notice that the same car is further behind then when they started.

Well, aren't we the same? Instead of waiting on God we jump ahead trying to change things on our own.

 It is time to slow down! 

Wait on the Lord.  This idea consists of three things:
                   1. We are to WAIT
                   2. He is LORD
                   3. He forms, builds, causes, works, does, teaches, leads.        

Psalms 25:3   Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.

 (Those who do not wait are transgressing without cause.  We run out of patience, and therefore lose trust in Him.  Anything that is not of faith is sin.) 

Psalms 27:14   Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. 

(Wherever we are in the process of our salvation, waiting is our task.  He will not fail to teach us.)   

Psalms 37:9   For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. 

Psalms 37:34   Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it.   


WAIT!
