The promise of God is like a seed given to a farmer. It must be planted in good soil and well taken care of. Courageously and patiently, with much devotion, that farmer will vigilantly wait, observing his crop day by day without distraction until the harvest comes.
We do not believe in God because things look good, but because we must put our total trust in the Lord, whatever the circumstances may be. But what some forgot is that if the presence of the Lord isn't with His people, the Ark of the Covenant among them is nothing more than a piece of equipment.
Walking in obedience to the Lord is an opportunity for those who are devoted to Him to position themselves for victory. Waiting on the Lord is about knowing the God who gives us the understanding to position ourselves to receive the fulfilment of His promises.
