I'm Just a Going Over Jordan!

Dennis Edwards

I had wanted to add a little more but had to rush out and take my daughter to the bus. David finished the Psalm with, "Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart: wait, I say, on the Lord." We've got to do the waiting. We've got to attempt to enter into His presence with thanksgiving and praise, and then, wait. Wait for Him to speak to us. Wait for His still small voice to tell us that all is okay and He is in control. Wait until His Spirit comforts us and we can take courage and be encouraged. Then, after we've done the waiting and have come into His presence and been strengthen, then, we can go and minister to others in His Spirit, with His love and wisdom and grace. Therefore, do not faint in your mind, but renew your mind by spending time with Jesus. He is the author and finisher of your faith and promises to strengthen you and help you, and uphold you with the right hand of His righteousness. It is good to draw nigh to God. It is good to wait on the Lord.
