“Yet those who wait for the LORD
They will mount up with wings like eagles,
They will run and not get tired,
They will walk and not become weary.” - Isaiah 40:31 (“.. they will walk and not faint.” - NLT)
Many of us, in the pursuit of GOD’s promises and direction for our lives, grow weary waiting.
We get tired seeking because we don’t see the hand of GOD in our current circumstance.
Yet that is what FAITH is - “Faith is the assurance of things HOPED for, the convictions of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1).
GOD gives us a vision, a calling, a dream, a Promise.
He impressed these things in our hearts in our early walk with Him as a Christian - an intimate walk - not a walk of complacency.
And as we sojourn, GOD continuously reminds us of His vision, His dreams, His promises -
for us to continuously seek Him and search Him with all our hearts, souls and minds.
The vision, the dream – they can be blurry at the start .
Like a puzzle, you only have a certain piece and not see the whole picture.
Yet what you have as you continuously seek Him, something which is certain and unchanging
and cannot be tampered, is His Promise which He had said in the beginning.
The fulfillment of the vision, the dream coming into fruition comes after many years of that journey of faith.
And I guess that is the reason why they call it a JOURNEY OF FAITH
because you don’t stop seeking, you don’t stop searching.
You press on, you continue your intimate walk with Him.
You persevere despite seeing the odds or experiencing uncertainties.
You continue your walk – a walk of prayer, fasting and seeking –
filled with HOPE and ASSURANCE that GOD will fulfill His vision, His dream for your life.
And as He said in Isaiah 46:11b "I have said what I would do, and I will do it.”
“A LIFE OF FAITH IS A LIFE OF WALKING WITHOUT FAINTING.” - Oswald Chambers
