Devotion:
Read Psalm 46.
“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Safe in the assurance that he is God, we can wait on him even amid chaos. He is still on his throne. You may be in limbo, or in between jobs, or in search of health, help, a house, or any number of other things. Are you in God’s waiting room? If so, here’s the wonderful truth: while you wait, God works!
The evidence of this is found in the stories of Joseph (Genesis 40), and Moses (Exodus) and Mary (Matthew/Mark/Luke) and countless others. God was working as they waited and you’ll get through this waiting season as well. Pay close attention and you will experience a special presence of God as you are still and waiting. Stillness before God requires practice, not inactivity. It is attentiveness, mindfulness, and acknowledging His presence and work in your life above all else. Are you in a season of waiting? Can’t see God working in your life? Get still before the Lord.
Personal Worship Option:
Reflect on how the LORD has worked in your life - journal a prayer telling him how you feel. Ask him to help you trust that he’s working on your behalf.
