“He gives power to the weak,
And to those who have no might He increases strength.
Even the youths shall faint and be weary,
And the young men shall utterly fall,
But those who wait on the Lord
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.”
(Isaiah 40:29-31)
Those Who Wait on the Lord
What does this mean?
“Those that wait on the Lord” represents a group of people on earth who are Believers in Jesus Christ, looking to Him during difficult times—the end-days generation that is appointed to live in a specific time, otherwise known as the “perilous times.” Noah was appointed to live in such a time.
Those Who Wait on the Lord
What does this mean?
Wait: to trust God – have faith in God – have faith in His Word.
Wait: to be active, to serve Him in whatever He has called you to do. Be on guard against time-consuming distractions (the wiles of the devil), that come to steal your assignment and remove the Word of God.
Wait: In a fine restaurant you will have a waiter who is called to wait on you. He is there to serve you. To wait on the Lord is to live life daily through your inner man, where God’s Spirit dwells, continually checking inward to seek Him and meet His needs. His desires should be a priority. As we serve, He “gives power to the weak.” Strength then increases and we faint not under pressure!
Jesus was God’s Most Faithful Waiter
He passed His divine call onto His Body of holy, anointed Believers. He told 120 faithful disciples to wait together in the upper room to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be witnesses to Me …” (Acts 1:4-8) The world awaits this manifestation!
Do not Forsake the Assembling of Yourselves Together
As we can only live in each day, and as we wait on the Lord to serve Him, remember He called His disciples to wait together in the upper room--not separated individually. (Hebrews 10:35)
This is that…which we all are experiencing…
“For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way.” (2 Thessalonians 2:7)
Our dear friend, in describing a hard family situation said, “It’s heavy.” The lawlessness of perilous, wicked times is the root cause. Jesus said: “And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.” (Matthew 24:12)
And yet, Jesus said, this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the nations, and then the end will come. (Matthew 24:14)
