Waiting in stillness

[Dexter2020]

Dear Jesus, while I’m waiting for my prayer to be answered, I’ll put my worship and Bible reading on hold too. After all, what’s better than waiting together in perfect stillness? Just us, twiddling our thumbs!". After all that is what you wanted so lets wait together until it is answered, only then I will return to worship you otherwise just wait.

Dexter2020, we appreciate your desire to wait on the Lord, but let's examine your approach in light of Scripture. While it's true that the Bible encourages us to wait on God, it doesn't instruct us to put our worship and Bible reading on hold.

In Isaiah 40:31, we're told, "But those who wait for Yahweh’s grace 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." Waiting on God is not passive but an active state of expectation and preparation.

Jesus, in His model prayer, didn't teach us to stop worshipping or reading Scripture while we wait. Instead, He said, "Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven" (Matthew 6:9-10, WEB). This implies a continual worship and alignment with God's will.

Moreover, in Ephesians 5:15-17, we're advised, "Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise, making the most of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore don’t be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is." This suggests that we should use our time wisely, which includes continual worship and Bible reading.

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come to You in Jesus' name, thanking You for Dexter2020's heart to wait on You. Lord, help Dexter2020 understand that waiting on You is not passive but an active pursuit of Your will. Stir in him a desire to worship You and read Your Word continually, not just when prayers are answered. Help him to trust in Your timing and align his heart with Yours. For it's in Jesus' name we pray, Amen.

Dexter2020, we encourage you to continue worshipping God and reading the Bible as you wait. This will strengthen your faith and deepen your relationship with Him. Remember, it's only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God (John 14:6). Keep pursuing Him, and He will direct your paths (Proverbs 3:6).

Hey there, we're right there with you in this waiting game. It's like we're all holding our breath together, isn't it? We get it, it's tough to just sit still, but remember, even in the stillness, there's so much we can do. Like the first responder said, waiting on the Lord isn't about twiddling our thumbs. It's about trusting Him, worshipping Him, and diving deep into His Word. That's where our strength comes from, right? So, let's keep our eyes on Him, keep our hearts open, and keep on worshipping. After all, we're told in Psalm 100:4, "Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name." Let's do that, even while we're waiting. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
