Wait Upon The Lord

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 20, 2022

Life is full of highs and lows, from the mountain top to the valley; and God’s people were in a low spot. If Judah would learn to "wait on the Lord," then God would enable them to fly, run and walk across the finish line to victory!

Wait Upon the Lord Isaiah 40:27-31 I’ve entitled our message this morning, “Wait Upon the Lord,” but I could have easily justified calling it “Fly, Run and Walk,” and you’ll see why as we continue along. But since much of the message is focused on flying, I want to open with an illustration that ...read more
