| How to Wait on God With Intense Focus and Passion |
If I want to hunt deer, I won’t set up an ambush on Wall Street in New York City or in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. To set up an ambush with any measure of success I must do so in areas where deer frequent. But many do not realize that the same is true of waiting on God. There are many who need a miracle, but they won’t go across town to a church where miracles are common. We play a mental game of pride when we refuse to humble ourselves and go to lie in wait in the places that God frequents.Now, please don’t stumble over the concept of ambushing God as though it violates His sovereignty—He is the One who has promised to be found by us if we seek Him with all of our hearts. And He is the One who said He would make Himself conspicuous as we pursue Him. This is His idea. It is our test to see if we believe Him enough to look eagerly for him. God is looking for someone who will get out of his or her routine and set up an ambush. Some people get really upset when they see believers traveling all over the world because those believers have heard that God is doing something significant in a particular place. Their reasoning: “God is everywhere. Seek Him where you are, and He will come to you.” Similarly, preachers with little breakthrough anointing will say, “You’re not supposed to follow signs. They are supposed to follow you! ” That looks good on paper and carries a measure of truth. read more |
