DAILY?READINGS: 1 Chronicles 7; Ezekiel 10; John 2:23 to 3:21
And the glory of the Lord abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud. Exodus 24:16
We have a “Hurry up and don’t make me wait” culture. Everything is getting faster and people are increasingly impatient. This is not God’s way. Believers should tarry before God and expectantly wait for Him to speak. Moses waited seven days before the Lord called to him. “Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord” (Ps. 27:14). There is no shortcut to a fruitful relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. —A. Baal
Death and hell cannot appal me; safe in Christ whate’er befall me;
Calmly wait till He shall call me: peace, peace is mine!
—J. Denham Smith
