God Lasts

God Lasts

God lastsThis post is for all of you who are waiting on the Lord and on the verse of getting tired of waiting. This post is for you who is complaining that God has lost track of you. This post is for you who thinks God does not care about you anymore.

Just read these verses from the Message and let the Holy Spirit minister to your heart:

Why would you ever complain, O Jacob,
    or, whine, Israel, saying,
God has lost track of me.
    He doesn’t care what happens to me”?
Don’t you know anything? Haven’t you been listening?
God doesn’t come and go. God lasts.
    He’s Creator of all you can see or imagine.
He doesn’t get tired out, doesn’t pause to catch his breath.
    And he knows everything, inside and out.
He energizes those who get tired,
    gives fresh strength to dropouts.
(Isaiah 40:27-29, MSG)

Haven’t you heard? God doesn’t come and go. God lasts forever and ever. He is always the same. He doesn’t get tired. And he loves you. He cares for you. He knows you inside and out.

So rest in him. Spend time in his presence and get renewed. God energizes those who come to him. He gives fresh strength to all who need it. Keep waiting for the Lord. Keep trusting. Keep on keeping on. Because God is with you no matter how you feel. God knows what he is doing. God doesn’t come and go. God lasts. Hallelujah!

 

Dear God,
We come to you with our doubts and questions.
Show us the way.
We come to you weary and troubled.
Be our way.
We come to you needy and empty.
Be our everything.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen

P.S. I was searching for a verse for a blog post when I ran into these verses and I knew immediately that I needed to write on these verses today and the other one on Wednesday. (Come back then for the follow up!)

Q4U: Are you getting weary of waiting? Have you heard that God lasts forever and ever? How does that change your outlook on life/waiting?

Be blessed, my fellow pilgrim, as you wait on the Lord! He is faithful!
