Are You Waiting On God To Make A Way Where You Just Can't Seem To Find Your Way? Are You Replacing Your Fear By Walking In Hope and Expectation Based On God and His Word?

 Waiting can be hard because along with waiting comes all types of emotions.   In the best case scenario, there should be hope while you wait but sometimes with waiting comes fear, discouragement, and anxiety.   It can be hard to wait on what you don't know.   So we have to learn how to flip the script.   We have to learn how to take fear out of our wait by replacing it with hope and expectation.    We do that by leaning and depending on the Word of God.    Even when you don't know what is about to happen, you have to believe what God said when He said that He would work all things together for our good.    You have to trust His Word that says that He knows the things we have need of and He is faithful and just to provide us with those things.    You have to remember what He said when He said that He knows the plans He has for us and He is faithful and just to bring HIS PLAN to pass. 

I know it is easy to say wait but while you are in the middle of the process of waiting, it can be very hard.    It is hard to stand still and to know that He is God when you are being pushed and pressed on every side.   It is hard to be strong when you feel like the situations that are happening in your life are constantly draining you.   It's hard but when it is hard, you have to remember, in your weakness, God is strong and while you are standing still, HE IS GOD AND YOUR STRENGTH IS IN HIM.  Remember, you are not on this journey alone.

Isaiah 43:16-19

King James Version

16 Thus saith the Lord, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;

17 Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow.

18 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.

19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
