Psalms 62:5
Psalms 62:5
My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.
While we wait on God, the posture of our souls is to be examined. In our season of waiting, what we do is just as important as the period of waiting. When the Psalmist waits on God in this text, his soul waits in silence as one who is anxious to hear only what God is going to say. This is the proper strategy for waiting. It is the time to separate from every noise that is not God and wait patiently for God to come through. A good and powerful example of waiting on God is seen in the life of Moses when he goes up the mountain to receive the commandments from God. Moses would wait forty days without distraction until God showed up. His waiting is always rewarded by a unique manifestation of God’s presence. How do you wait, my brother and my sister? How strong is your hope in the One who can deliver you? When you wait on God, your focus must be only on Him. Wait in silence and in humble longing for God to come through. This is how to meet God.
Psalm 56:11
In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.
Psalms 9:10
And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
Proverbs 3:5
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Psalms 62:8
Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.
