Thank you so much for downloading 37 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 5: this podcast. I believe God has amazing things in your future. 38 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 5: I hope you enjoy this message. 39 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 4: I think about when my daughter sent out her applications 40 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 4: for college. 41 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 5: She was going to go to a university, and so 42 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 5: it was the end of her senior year. She began 43 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 5: to send out applications to see where she would go 44 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 5: to school. 45 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 4: I remember they said it was. 46 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 5: Going to take a few months to get those applications 47 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 5: back and see what school she was accepted in. 48 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 4: But you know, those months just seemed to take even longer. 49 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 5: It seemed like it was taking forever to get a 50 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 5: response back from the school, and she was anticipating what 51 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 5: school she would go to. All of her friends were 52 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 5: going through the same process. They were waiting for their answers. 53 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 5: And it's kind of funny because as they were waiting, 54 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 5: it was as if they had more questions in their 55 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 5: heart and mind. They were like, well, what if I 56 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 5: get accepted to this school, who will I live with? 57 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 4: Well if I get accepted to that school, where will 58 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 4: I live? 59 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 5: You see, they were anticipating all this and it was 60 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 5: just formulating more doubt and more questions in their mind. 61 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 4: About this situation. 62 00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 5: You see, they were waiting and it was making them weary. 63 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 5: Have you ever waited and been frustrated? Kind of like 64 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 5: my daughter. She couldn't make plans until she got this answer. 65 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 4: You see, it happens to all of us. We all 66 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 4: go through this waiting process. It's no fun. It can 67 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 4: be difficult, it can be challenging, and it can be hard. 68 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 5: But can I tell you God is not making us 69 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 5: wait to make it hard on us. He's causing us 70 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 5: to develop in our character and in our strength. You see, 71 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 5: we all have patience we need to acquire. 72 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 4: Patience is a strength. 73 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 5: Patience is what brings forth God's promises. The Word says 74 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 5: it's through patient endurance that we bring forth the promises 75 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 5: of God. You see, my daughter was accepted to a college. 76 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 5: She was really happy about it, but then she started 77 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 5: waiting to see what authority she would get in. She 78 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 5: was waiting to see what kind of friends she would meet. 79 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 4: She's going to be waiting to graduate. 80 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 5: She'll be waiting to see what job she gets, who 81 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 5: she marries, waiting to have a baby. You see, life 82 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 5: is a process of waiting. She's eighteen years old, She's 83 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 5: got a lot of waiting to do. So the earlier 84 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 5: that we learn this. 85 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 4: Process, the happier we're going to be. You see. 86 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 5: I wonder sometimes if those girls even enjoyed the last 87 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 5: semester of high school because they were so concerned, worried, 88 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 5: and frustrated about what was going to happen in the future. 89 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 4: You know, it's interesting. God always puts. 90 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 5: Us at the right place, even if it's not the 91 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 5: place we think we should be. 92 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 4: God always works it out for us. 93 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 5: You see, we're going to be waiting most of the time, 94 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 5: so we need to learn to wait well. Isaiah forty 95 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 5: third one says, wait on the Lord, and he will 96 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 5: renew your strength. See, we're never gonna wait well unless 97 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 5: we wait in the strength of God. Sometimes we make 98 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 5: the mistake of thinking waiting is passive. We're standing in 99 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 5: the corner with our hands folded, just waiting for the 100 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 5: right thing to happen, waiting for us to get this 101 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 5: great break, waiting for our career to start. But see, 102 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 5: God doesn't think that we should sit around and wait. 103 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 5: We should be actively waiting. We should be pursuing God, 104 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 5: not just waiting to see what happens, but preparing ourselves 105 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 5: in the wait. You know, I've heard it said like 106 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 5: this that patience is a muscle that can. 107 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 4: Only be developed in the wait. 108 00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 5: You see, we've got to wait well to develop patience. 109 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 5: We all want patience, we all want to be strengthened. 110 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,040 Speaker 5: The writer of James says it like this. See the farmer, 111 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 5: how he waits patiently for his crops to come up. 112 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 5: Then it goes on to tell us how he waits. 113 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 5: It says, he waits with cheerful endurance. With expectation. He's waiting, 114 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 5: looking for the signs the rain. He's out there watching 115 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 5: his soil, believing it's rich. You See, he doesn't go 116 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 5: out there and say, I know I planted seed in 117 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 5: the ground. I wonder if it's still there. Have you 118 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 5: ever thought, like, let me dig it up and make 119 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 5: sure it's still down there. I don't see anything happening yet. 120 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 4: You see, that's easy. We all feel like that. 121 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 5: But he stayed excited about his crop even when he 122 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 5: didn't see anything happening, because he knew it was just 123 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 5: a matter of time that the earth would bring forth 124 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 5: his harvest if he kept his endurance and his strength 125 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 5: and his patience. See, we should all wait with that attitude, 126 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 5: shouldn't we. We would enjoy life more. You know, we 127 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 5: don't need to feel the struggle when we wait. We 128 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 5: need to develop our patients knowing that at the right time, 129 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 5: God is gonna get us to where we. 130 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 4: Need to be. 131 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 5: We need to start enjoying our life right now, not 132 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 5: looking so far into the future that we forget what's 133 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 5: happening right now. I was in the elevator with my 134 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 5: daughter not long ago, and we were going up to 135 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 5: like the twenty fifth floor in this high rise building, 136 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 5: and the elevator stopped, doors opened, and a man walks 137 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 5: in and we're just standing there and he looks at 138 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 5: me and I smiled at him, and he looks at 139 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 5: me and I said, hi. He was gonna say something 140 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 5: to me, and he stopped for a second and I 141 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 5: could see him thinking, and he said, I can't believe 142 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 5: you're standing in this elevator. I can't believe I'm seeing 143 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 5: you right now. He said, I was talking to a 144 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 5: friend of mine the other day, and he said, I 145 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 5: was talking about how I've been waiting for something for 146 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 5: a long time, and I need God to help me. 147 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 5: I need him to increase my patience so I can 148 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 5: bring forth what I feel like he's called me to do. 149 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 5: And he said, you know, I love the ministry. I 150 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 5: get encouragement from the ministry. And he said, because I 151 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 5: see you today, he said, I believe it's a sign 152 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 5: that God is telling me it's gonna happen. 153 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 4: Hang on, don't give up. It's just a matter of time. 154 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 4: You know what that man was. 155 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 5: Doing, he was doing the same thing that the farmer does. 156 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 5: He was looking for a sign. He was looking for 157 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 5: the rain He was saying, I need this cheerful, hopeful endurance. God, 158 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 5: give me a sign, give me the next thing, to 159 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 5: give me to my next place. 160 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 4: Strengthen me. I'm waiting on you so that you'll renew 161 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 4: my strength. You see, when we're strong, we can endure. 162 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 5: God says, I want you to run and not get weary. 163 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 4: I don't want you to faint. 164 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 5: I want you to be strong with this virtue called patience. See, 165 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 5: we don't need to birth anything before it's time. We've 166 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 5: got to be ready for what God has in store 167 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 5: for us. And if we're going to bring forth the 168 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 5: promises of God, we're going to have to develop patience. 169 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 5: Patience isn't a bad thing. Patience is a strength. It's 170 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 5: a good thing. Jesus told five hundred disciples wait here 171 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 5: in Jerusalem. 172 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 4: Because the Holy Spirit is going to come upon you. 173 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 4: He said, don't leave, wait right here. 174 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 5: Do you know that only one hundred and fifty disciples 175 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 5: out of the five hundred didn't get impatient and leave. 176 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 4: The rest left. 177 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 5: It was only one hundred and twenty out of the 178 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 5: five hundred that's stuck around. 179 00:09:58,920 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 6: You. 180 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 5: See, sometime I think when it takes a long time, 181 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 5: we get bored, we lose our enthusiasm, we forget what 182 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 5: we're waiting for, we quit expecting. You see, that day, 183 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 5: the ones who stayed got renewed, recharged and re energated, 184 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 5: energized by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit came in 185 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 5: and suddenly did exactly what Jesus said. The Holy Spirit 186 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 5: was gonna do habaka. The prophet said, God, I have 187 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 5: this vision. You told me to write it down. You 188 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 5: told me to hold it close. But it's taken a 189 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 5: long time. And God, you know, God said to him, 190 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 5: he said, though it terry, wait for it? Well, God 191 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 5: tell me when? 192 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 4: Wait for it? Man? Sometimes, you know, have you ever 193 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 4: thought of that word waiting? 194 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 6: You? 195 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 4: All you can see is long lines, lots of traffic. 196 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 5: You're sitting in the doctor's office with everybody ud. He's 197 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 5: sitting there waiting. But why do you stay in that chair? 198 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 5: Because you know the nurse is gonna come out. She's 199 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 5: gonna call your name. She's gonna call your name. That's 200 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 5: what keeps you in that chair. Let me tell you something, God, 201 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 5: it's gonna call your name. 202 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 4: It's for an appointed time. Wait for it. 203 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 5: Don't get ahead of a time. See, you know what 204 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 5: our job is. Our job is to get ready for 205 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 5: the appointed time, because we don't want to birth anything 206 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 5: before it's time. We don't want to take it into 207 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 5: our own hands. I think about Moses and how he 208 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 5: led the Israelites. They were well equipped when they came 209 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 5: out of Egypt strong, headed to the Promised Land. Listen, 210 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 5: he opened the Red Sea. They saw amazing miracles. They 211 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 5: walk through on dry ground, so incredible. Even though they 212 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 5: may have been fearful, they look back and they watched 213 00:11:56,200 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 5: the sea swallow up their enemies. God did amazing things. 214 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 5: He said, I'm taking you to that place called the 215 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 5: Promised Land. Stick with me, keep the promise, and don't 216 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:13,079 Speaker 5: give up. Well, as they were in the desert, Moses said, hey, 217 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 5: I'll be back. 218 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 4: I'm going to see God. 219 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 5: I'm gonna get our instructions for the next half of 220 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 5: our journey. So he went up to Mount Sinai and 221 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 5: spoke with God. But you know what the Israelites did 222 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 5: in the camp. They lost sight of the promise of God. 223 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 5: They lost sight of where they were going and what 224 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 5: God was capable of doing. You know what they said, 225 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 5: They said, we don't know if Moses he's even going 226 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 5: to come back, He's taken so long. 227 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 4: They were so impatient. You know what they did. They 228 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 4: took the. 229 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 5: Gold that God had given them, that he had supplied 230 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:50,599 Speaker 5: for them, and they threw it in the fire, and 231 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 5: they said, we're going to make our own God. We're 232 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 5: going to celebrate and worship that God. They thought that 233 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 5: God was gonna make him happy. 234 00:12:59,160 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 4: He didn't. 235 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 5: It didn't make them happy at all. In fact, you 236 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 5: know what they did, they fell short of. 237 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 4: The best plan God had for their life. We need 238 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 4: to be prepared. 239 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 5: There's a point of time. What are you doing to 240 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:19,199 Speaker 5: get to that appointed time? You See, it's how we 241 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:24,559 Speaker 5: wait that's important to God. How we wait can oftentimes 242 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 5: lead to how long we wait. 243 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 4: See, the waiting is what God is interested in. 244 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 5: He's interested in what we're gonna develop within us as 245 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,560 Speaker 5: we wait. In fact, I believe he's more interested in 246 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 5: our development. 247 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 4: Than what we're waiting on. 248 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 5: Because see, God's got amazing things in your future.
