Waiting On God

Isaiah 40:27-31

1. Sometimes it feels like God does not see or know what’s going on with me.
Jacob and Israel made two statements about this:
1. “My way is hidden from the LORD.”
2. “The justice due me escapes
the notice of my God.”

2. God answers with Several Reminders:
“Do you not know?” “Have you not heard?”
A. He reminds us of His Name
1. The Everlasting God
2. The LORD
3. The Creator of the ends of the earth
B. He reminds us of His strength
1. He does not become weary
2. He does not become tired
3. His understanding is inscrutable
**Inscrutable means not readily investigated,
interpreted, or understood: mysterious
4. He gives strength to the weary
and power to him who lacks might
C. He gives a bit of comparison
THOUGH:
1. Youths grow weary and tired
(not just older people)
2. Vigorous Young Men stumble badly
YET THOSE WHO WAIT FOR THE LORD:
3. Will gain new strength
4. Will mount up with wings like eagles
5. Will run and not get tired
6. Will walk and not become weary

3. What is the key to overcoming the uncertainty of life?
WAITING ON AND FOR GOD!!
