    In the musical Fiddler on the Roof, the persecuted Jewish villagers of Anatevka are forced to flee the Russian pogroms. Someone asked the Rabbi, “Wouldn’t this be a good time for the Messiah to come?” The Rabbi answered, “Yes, my son; meanwhile, let’s get packing!”

    Waiting on God’s Timing

    This is a word or a verb that is very hard for most people. It requires a lot from someone to do this action. We tend to want things fast, our dreams or our goals reached quickly, to get married and it hurts or terrifies us when we can’t see or do what we want rigtht away. We tend to take actions ...read more

    If you’re waiting on the promise of God, don’t feel condemned thinking you missed it somewhere. There is, however, a time to examine your heart.

    A. The Bible teaches that we are to be overcomers in every arena of life. That means that we are in a fight. The Bible’s says you’re going to have to fight the good fight in order to lay hold on eternal life. B. The term “eternal life” means more than the “timelessness of eternity” when we go to ...read more

Thomas, Preaching Minister First Christian Church, Vandalia, MO The other day I had a conversation with a family about death and dying.

     | 7,686 views

    Waiting for the Lord constitutes an act of faith. This is not an easy proverb to follow since we are such activists. Like Job, we, too, need to learn that it is more important to trust God than to have answers to all our questions.

    "Waiting for the Lord" Psalms 37:34-40 Sept. 26, 2004 PM Icebreaker: When are you the most anxious? 34 Wait for the LORD and keep his way. He will exalt you to inherit the land; when the wicked are cut off, you will see it. 35 I have seen a wicked and ruthless man flourishing like a green ...read more

    We are still in the season of Advent, not Christmas. We can’t be ready for Christmas unless we prepare ourselves through Advent.

    Waiting for Christmas Luke 3:1-17 December 17, 2006 Back in the late 1980’s when I was pastor over at First UMC in Morocco, Indiana, I was approached by a gentleman from the congregation asking about my choice of hymns. “Why can’t we sing Christmas hymns?” It has been December for a couple of ...read more

    A sermon that challenges us to wait on the Lord to reveal His will.

    "Waiting for the Tide" Job 42:12-13 Job 42:12 So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses. 13 He had also seven sons and three daughters.

    Oftentimes it is difficult for one to do what they encourage others to do.Someone can say pray for such and such and we can say I believe God will work mightily on your behalf, but when it becomes something personal then we oftentimes struggle between faith and doubt.

    Wait on Me! By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING: - Oftentimes it is difficult for one to do what they encourage others to do. For example my mother will tell whomever the moment they mention they may do not feel well - to go see the doctor, but when she has something wrong she will not ...read more

    Waiting On God

    Waiting on God is one of the most difficult things to do. Apparently the whole life secret lies in it. What does waiting on the Lord include? Let me put it in three brief exhortations. Keep near Him; keep still; expect.

    Illustration: Themistocles, who led the Greeks in the famous naval battle of Salamis, for some reason unknown to his troops, delayed the engagement. It was expected that he would avail himself of the early morning hours; and when what seemed the golden opportunity had gone in inactivity, there were ...read more

    It is not reasonable for us, like Thomas, to insist on seeing Jesus' wounds for ourselves before we believe; We have clouds of witnesses whose lives proclaim the truth of their words. What more do we need?

    Not too long ago I had some serious computer problems. I took my printer in to be repaired only to be told that it was a software problem. So I downloaded new installation software off of the Internet only to find that in doing so I had messed up my operating system. I tried to reinstall the ...read more

    God’s word is the water that we must bathe in daily. We wash away everything that does not conform to the image of Christ. As God’s ’wife’ it must be our earnest desire for him to see us as beautiful and pleasing. O that we could be his delight.

    Opening illustration: Watch the video clip ‘God’s Valentine.’ Let us turn to Revelation 19 and catch up with John’s vision of the ‘Bride of Christ’ and how she gets herself ready for her Bridegroom. Introduction: The imagery and symbolism of marriage is applied to Christ and the body of believers ...read more
