I Will Wait for You (Psalm 130) by Shane & Shane Verse 1 Out of the depths I cry to You In darkest places I will call Incline Your ear to me anew And hear my cry for mercy Lord Verse 2 Were You to count my sinful ways How could I come before Your throne Yet full forgiveness meets my gaze I stand redeemed by grace alone I will wait for You, I will wait for You On Your word I will rely I will wait for You, surely wait for You 'Til my soul is satisfied Verse 3 So put Your hope in God alone Take courage in His power to save Completely and forever won By Christ emerging from the grave Verse 4 Now He has come to make a way And God Himself has paid the price That all who trust in Him today Find healing in His sacrifice That all who trust in Him today Find healing in His sacrifice I will wait for You, I will wait for You Through the storm and through the night I will wait for You, surely wait for You For Your love is my delight Wait on You by Elevation Worship & Maverick City Verse 1 I don’t believe in fairy tales I guess I’ve outgrown them But that doesn’t mean I don’t believe that there’s something bigger than me Cause I’ve seen it in a hospital room When the doctors said, “Sorry there’s nothing more we can do” Well it wasn’t through Verse 2 I’ve never seen a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow But I’ve got a promise I can hold in the middle of the struggle God if you said it You’ll perform it May not be how I want You to But here’s what I’ll do I’m gonna wait on You I’m gonna wait on You I’ve tasted Your goodness I’ll trust in Your promise I’m gonna wait on You Verse 3 I know You’ve ordered every step Yeah, You are the Author And there’s no predicting what is next But You hold the future And all the questions they come second to the one I know is true You’ve always been true Wait on the Lord Wait on the Lord He will renew your strength So wait I say They that wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength They shall mount up, up on wings Like an eagle, and soar They shall walk, and not get weary They shall run, and not faint That's what happens when you wait… You’ll get a little stronger… Life-Sharing
Blessed are those who Wait for the LORD (ISAIAH 30:18-33) CENTRAL TRUTH: If you want to know the grace, mercy, and justice of God, you must learn to wait. It is not your present time, but all time under every season belonging to Him, who acts on behalf of you. So wait as much as Jesus waits daily to heal and make glad your heart for Him! KEY VERSE: 18 Therefore the Lord waits to be gracious to you, and therefore he exalts himself to show mercy to you. For the Lord is a God of justice; blessed are all those who wait for him. In Returning and Rest You Shall Be Saved (ISAIAH 30:1-17) CENTRAL TRUTH: We make ourselves busier than we need to be. This results in spiritual stubbornness as God interrupts our busy lives. Let us put away our plans that end in shame and unwillingness to enter His rest in quietness and trust. Be busy resting in the solace of Jesus! KEY VERSE: 15 For thus said the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel, “In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.” But you were unwilling, 16 and you said, “No! We will flee upon horses”; therefore you shall flee away; and, “We will ride upon swift steeds”; therefore your pursuers shall be swift. The LORD is with You (PSALM 23) by Rev. Michael Chung CENTRAL TRUTH: The LORD is our sufficiency (v.1-3), our security (v.4), our victory (v.5), our eternity (v.6). He is with us, leading us through – not to – the valleys. We are only hit by the shadow of death and not death itself. KEY VERSE: 4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. Jacob Shall No More Be Ashamed (ISAIAH 29:13-24) CENTRAL TRUTH: Stop shaming God and yourself in the process. God wants the heart over the mouth. We can’t hide the heart for He sees and understands everything. Don’t stay in shame but in His fresh joy. Grow into sanctification, for in Jesus, shame is no more, forevermore! KEY VERSE: 13 And the Lord said: “Because this people draw near with their mouth and honor me with their lips, while their hearts are far from me, and their fear of me is a commandment taught by men, 14 therefore, behold, I will again do wonderful things with this people, with wonder upon wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the discernment of their discerning men shall be hidden.”
