Listening to your Father part 2
Sometimes this just might be the hardest part of listening to your Father,
but it's one of the most important.....WAITING
but it's one of the most important.....WAITING
He loves you--Lamentations 3:22-25
The Lord's lovingkindnessess indeed never cease, for His compassions never fail, they are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness, "the Lord is my portion," says my soul "Therefore I have hope in Him." The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the person who seeks Him.
Lovingkindess: The Hebrew for this word denotes the Lord's loving faithfulness. It is beyond measure.
Waiting always means seeking the Lord. When we enter God’s waiting room we are not to just sit as one might in the doctor’s chair. Rather, we need to spend time seeking Him. This means: - Time in the Word studying, seeking answers, and claiming God’s promises;
- Time in prayer praying about the issues, praying for wisdom and discernment;
- Time meditating on who God is, what He is wanting to do in us and through us, and on what we need to do by way of answers and direction. Included in this might be our need to examine and evaluate our motives and attitudes, our values and priorities, and our goals and objectives in life.

Listenening to your Father
Waiting on God to know His will in prayer and His Word....
Who is this God you are coming to?
Get to know Your Father
Your Father knows you--Psalm 139:1-4
"Oh Lord, You have searched me and known me, you know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thoughts from afar. You scrutinize my path and my lying down, and are intimately acquainted with all my ways. Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O Lord, You know it all."
God, You know me perfectly, far beyond my knowledge of myself: my every action, my every undertaking and the manner in which I pursue it, even my thoughs before they are fully crystallized and my word before they are uttered.
