Welcome back! This is the last day of this devotional and we are so happy that you stuck with us throughout this journey. In the previous days we discovered why we had to wait, for what and for whom we are waiting, how long and where to wait, and we believe that the Holy Spirit ministered to you during those days and transformed the way you perceive waiting on the Lord. Now that we are more familiar and comfortable with…

When we are about to see a doctor, or in a bus terminal or airport, we will wait in a waiting room. The conditions of the waiting room may differ from one place to another. In the bus stop, it’s good enough if we have a shelter on top of our head. In the airport gate or bus terminal, we can expect to see some chairs and wait while sitting down. When we are about to see a doctor or…

In the previous days, we have established that all followers of Christ are waiting on God for something or the other. Maybe you are waiting on God for a dream, a promise, a prophecy, a supplication you have been making unto him, and now you know that what matters most is not to wait for something but for someone: I AM. Yet, an important question remains unanswered: “How long shall I wait, Lord?” Today, we will try to answer this…

We ended yesterday’s devotional with the interesting discovery that the Bible characters we consider as heroes of faith did not merely wait for something, instead they waited for someone. They waited for God to intervene in their situation. Maybe you are thinking to yourself: How can waiting for God help me find a solution to my problem? I need food on my table, a new job/ promotion, a spouse/child/friend, healing, deliverance from an addiction, courage for a fresh start, or…

Every person in this world waits and wants to receive something from God at some point in their lives. This is not something that started with us, it goes way back, as early as Adam, the first man to live on earth, who waited on God to form Eve, his suitable helper (Genesis 2:20-23). Throughout the Bible we have accounts of people who waited to obtain things, titles, positions, people, to whom we can relate and from whom we can…

In a world of ever growing instant gratification, the thought of waiting for something is despised. It seems that not many things are worth waiting for; as a matter of fact something that has to be waited for is not worth it. In such a culture where virtues like patience and perseverance are not instilled in us, waiting seems unnatural and tedious. Sayings like “Good things come to those who wait” now sound like outdated advice for someone to give…

Welcome into 2024! We believe this year will be a beautiful and exciting year for all those who take refuge in the Lord Jesus. Therefore, at the onset of this year, we want to invite you to “wait on the Lord”. The theme verse is taken from Psalm 27:14, “Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!” If we look at some heroes of faith in the Bible, we quickly…

In this 7-day devotional, we invite you to ponder on some questions that you may have in your heart: What am I waiting for? Has God forgotten me? Why should I wait? Where shall I wait? Who am I waiting for? And what shall I do while I am waiting?  Are you excited?  Let’s start with Day 1 ! “Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!” Psalm 27:14 -Prayer…
