WAIT ON THE LORD

Isaiah 40:31

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 40:31, NKJV

If we wait upon the Lord, He will renew our strength. We can spread our wings and soar high as eagles do. Though at times we can feel weary, God strengthens us with His power, and He renews us. We don't have to let our circumstances or the chaos in our country overwhelm us and keep us down, unable to see beyond it. If we look up to God, committing our ways to Him and giving over our cares, we can rise up and soar above all our circumstances. We then will be able to run and not be weary, to walk and not faint (or become tired).

If you are feeling exhausted and weary and in need of an energy boost, give it over to God and continue to give it over moment by moment. Allow Him to strengthen you, so you can soar above it. If we rise up and soar as eagles do, our circumstances won't overwhelm us. When we are weary from the struggles of life and find it hard to keep going, we can turn to God and ask Him for renewal and strength. Our great God gloriously provides power to those who pursue His presence and fully rely on Him.

As we patiently rest in His care with expectation, He brings His healing and hope to help us take flight and finish with fresh enthusiasm and energy. Are you flapping your wings in your own energy right now? Are you weary from struggling to solve your problems with your own strength? Slow down and spend time with God who is more powerful than your problems. Ask Him to fill you with a renewed hope. Trust that He is at work and knows the way. We will always soar when we surrender to God.

It is inevitable that on occasion we will feel the weariness of life weighing us down. When you find yourself in the that place today, ask the Lord to renew your spiritual strength. Whatever stands in your path, God can give you the strength to face it and rise above it!!!

Father, thank You for this day and the breath of life that is in Your Word. Lord, open the floodgates of heaven and rain down Your abundant blessings upon us and our family today. Lord, we know that our strength can only be found in You. Lord, help us to trust implicitly in the power that we can only receive from You. Lord, we pray that we may truly rise above all the difficulties of life and run with patient endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto You, who is our only source of strength and our only means of refreshment. Lord, use us to be the salt and light of Your Word to help others find their way to You.

Father, we love You. Amen.
