Creating Your Circumstances Through Waiting

Circumstances May or May Not Change

It is through our circumstances that we often see the greatest evidence of where we are still under the influence of our enemies the world, the flesh and the devil. It is worth waiting on Him to be able to overcome according to His plan rather than our impatience or ignorance.

Physical Changes

People who habitually engage in waiting on the Lord often find many symptoms of stress lessened simply from the process of letting the body relax. This is in addition to the healing the Lord desires to bring to all of us according to His plan and time. Some physical symptoms that may improve are headaches, high blood pressure, inability to concentrate, sleeplessness and sleep interruptions.

Hearing His Voice

God is practical and knows that learning to wait can be a hard transition for many of His people. The realization that He is always speaking to us in our spirit is comforting, but the fact that we are not always hearing Him speak, lead, guide, comfort, encourage, correct us in our soul, where we really need to hear Him, can be discouraging.

1.    Recognize that we can’t hear from God without His help. He’s already given us ears to hear, a mind that understands and a heart to respond. All we need to do is join Him in His process.

2.    Commit to waiting on Him, for Him and with Him. The goal of hearing is to KNOW God, not just to hear Him more clearly. 

3.    Develop your soulical senses.

4.    Rest: Be patient, confident and dependent.

5.    ASK!

6.    Be Bold!
