Bible Verse of The Day – 5-6-25

Psalm 40:1-3 (NKJV) 1 I waited patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me,  And heard my cry. 2 He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of the miry clay, And set my feet upon a rock, And established my steps. 3 He has put a new song in my mouth— Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the Lord.

I love how David said that he waited PATIENTLY.

Waiting patiently is not the same as just waiting.

The word patient means to be able to accept or tolerate delays, problems, or suffering without becoming annoyed or anxious.

Waiting patiently is a whole new level of waiting.

It is waiting without putting up a fuss.

It is waiting and keeping quiet, not complaining while waiting for the answer.

It is waiting without telling everyone what you are going through and how long you’ve been dealing with it.

To sum it up, waiting patiently is trusting God’s timing, God’s answer, and God’s steps.

What happens when we wait like this? God hears us!

That’s right! We may be very quiet or still, but He hears our cry through our heart. This is amazing!

Psalm 46:10 (NKJV) 10 Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!

Know that He is God and He will bring us out of our situation as we follow the steps He gives us.

Let us shout from deep in our spirit a new song of deliverance! Amen.
