Word given at Glory Mountain
September 3rd 2007
There are so many opportunities to consider in this life, so many directions to choose from; we are a blessed people indeed to have so much available to and for us in the pursuits of our dreams and goals. It is also very easy to become overwhelmed by it all, confused about which way to go, which direction to take, where to best spend our time and resources, when to make the best financial move, where to invest our life and energies.
As I contemplated these things and many more concerning the way I should go at this time in my life, I heard that sweet, familiar, still voice of the Lord say to me “bide your time” right now. Oh no, I thought at first, that means to just somehow hang in there by my thumbnails with the status quo when I think the changes are needed ASAP! I’m not agreeable with that I say but I know my Lord loves me & always knows what’s best for me, He’s proved Himself o’r & o’r as some old song says. So I think, maybe I don’t understand that old archaic word “bide”, I owe it to the Lord to at least look it up. Sure enough, He has my best interest in mind, all planned out as He said it was!
To wait patiently for a good opportunity to do something
To wait for further developments
To wait; tarry
To stay; remain
To remain in a condition or state
To continue in a place, position or situation.
I have learned many lessons the hard way and the easy way in my life and I know for sure that when the Lord presents a good opportunity, when He opens a door and makes a way for you to go through it, there is no alternative that is easier or more perfect for you than that. We all have the ability to understand that truth. So as for me right now, I am biding my time with Jesus and I am confident He will give me the strength to do so!
