One Word

God will sometimes give us ONE WORD, just ONE WORD. We may not get the full picture of how to move forward with that word.  Before acting on that ONE WORD, pray about why He gave it to you and how this word applies to your life. God gave me ONE WORD back in June 2017, and if I had acted on it the way I thought it was meant to be, I would have been going in the opposite direction of where He intended me to go. In addition, I would have been out of monies and time that I was never to place on that ONE WORD.

How many times has God spoken something to you and things did not turn out the way they should have because you didn’t seek and patiently wait to receive full understanding? I can tell you that this has happened to me on numerous occasions. However, I have learned to wait…and wait…and sometimes wait a little longer for directions. I want to make sure that everything I do is according to God’s plan. Does this mean that I will always get it right? Absolutely not. But waiting on Him, it keeps me from making drastic mistakes.  I encourage you to be patient and wait on further/clearer instructions. God won’t lead us or guide us in the wrong direction.

The Beauty of Waiting on God

Waiting on God can be a beautiful experience in many ways. Here are a few reasons why:

Trust: Waiting on God requires a deep level of trust. It means that we are willing to surrender our desires and plans to God, believing that He knows what is best for us. Trusting in God’s timing and plan for our lives can bring a sense of peace and contentment, even in the midst of uncertainty.

Growth: Waiting on God can be a time of spiritual growth. As we wait and seek God’s guidance, we may become more aware of our own weaknesses and need for His strength. We may also develop a deeper understanding of God’s character and learn to rely on Him more fully.

Perspective: Waiting on God can give us a fresh perspective on life. When we step back and allow God to work, we may see things in a new light and gain a clearer understanding of our purpose and priorities.

Blessings: Often, the blessings we receive from God are even greater when we have to wait for them. When we trust God and wait patiently for His provision, we can be sure that He will provide in a way that exceeds our expectations.

Overall, waiting on God can be a beautiful and transformative experience. It requires patience, trust, and surrender, but the rewards are worth it.

Are you willing to wait?
