from “1. Dealing With My Faith In God's Timing”

I want to remind you today that our God is never too early and he's never too late. Our God is a what? On time God. Oh, come on. Give him a praise today. If you believe that about God, I'm going to give you four things to write down today. Write down number one. The first thing God deals with me as I come back is he deals with my faith in God's timing. He deals with my trust in the timing of the Lord. See, I love this about God. God said, my ways are above your ways. My thoughts are above your thoughts. A day is like a thousand years to the Lord and a thousand years is like a day. God knows the end from the beginning. He is the Alpha and the Omega. We believe that God is sovereign and seated on the throne and God knows just what you need and he knows just when you need it. Anybody thankful today that God will supply all of your needs according to his riches and according to his glory. Oh, I love Isaiah 40. Put it on the screen. Have you not known? Have you not heard the everlasting God, the Lord, the creator of the ends of the earth? He neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the weak. That's cowboy fans. I'm profiling to somebody right now. And to those who have no might, he increases their strength. Even youths like Graham shall faint and be weary and the young men shall utterly fall. But those that wait on the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles. They shall run and not grow weary. They shall walk and not what faint. That's what God does. That's why I love that elevation worship song. I'm going to wait on you, man. If I could sing like pastor Steven, I sing the whole song right now, but I'm going to wait on you. I'm going to wait on you. See, what happened is they're on this journey and they're on the way to eat him. And the Lord took them around the long way. See, what I love about God is that God sometimes knows that you're not ready for what you think you're ready for. And sometimes God loves you enough to not shortcut your blessing. Sometimes God will take you around the long way and it's on the long way that something's being developed in you. Something is being put inside of you that's lacking. Oh, I'm thankful that I didn't get what I thought I deserved when I thought I deserved it. I'm grateful that God took me on the path and the journey that I needed for my life. Somebody else. Oh, look at what lamentations chapter three, verse 25 says. It says, it says, uh, the Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him. The Lord is good to those who wait for him. I'm just telling you, nothing reveals more about what you believe about God than the way that you wait. I live in LA. We are masters of waiting on the freeway. I learned how to wait on the four or five, but I've learned with God, I got to wait on the Lord. I got to wait on God's strength. And I've learned not to wait like this. I've learned to wait like this. God is faithful. God is generous.
