To “tarry” means to “linger”, to “wait”, and it extends to meaning, to “stay longer than planned or proposed”. To Wait From A Biblical Perspective. Waiting upon The Lord means the following:
1. Fellowship that builds intimacy, conviction, strength, and power.
2. The discipline and the patience of staying to align with divine timing and prophetic seasons. (Romans 8: 25, Psalm 27: 13-14)
3. To assume the posture of dependence, dependence of trust, and dependence of wholehearted reliance on God for directions, next level strategies, and the power to function.
4. The various spiritual activities that you engage in, during your time spent with God, especially prayer and fasting. There is a timing to prophecy; there is a timing to walking with God. We must not think of just fellowship, but also the discipline and alignment required for fellowship, until we come into divine timing. Waiting can be a waste of time, it can lead to defeat and pain because there’s a condition to waiting. Your waiting is only guaranteed to produce profit, if that wait is upon The Lord. Our waiting is only guaranteed to produce profit, if that wait is upon The Lord. Waiting can be a waste of time, it can lead to pain and defeat when done wrongly. It is only when it is unto The Lord that it produces profit. Waiting on The Lord edifies the Believer. Waiting on The Lord is a principle, but we are not left with principles alone upon the earth, because principles only work when dark spirits do not manipulate the process. The balance is that when we become irresponsible and wait on God to do everything for us, it is a false waiting on God that is guaranteed to leave you in pain. God’s obsession is to be trusted. He is THE FORCE that powers principles. Before we explore principles, we should ensure our hearts are stayed on Him as The Force that powers principles. You can make your intelligence your source, by having an overestimation of self, arising from an over-dependence on your intelligence. When you’re intelligent and you depend on God, that dependence will power your intelligence to bring you profit. The Unprofitable Side Of Waiting That Leads To Pain:
1. You can wait on, that is rely on, and invest your trust and expectations in human connections, making them your source. (Psalm 60: 11-12).
2. You can wait upon your intelligence and ideas. That is, making your intelligence and ideas your source. (Proverbs 3: 6-7)
Invest in knowledge and be skillful, but when all is said and done, know that it is not in the abundance of knowledge, but through a dependence on God.Most times, we see the manifestation and the effulgence of the glory, but we hate the process that births that glory. The more purified your vessel is, the weighter the measure of glory you will carry and manifest.
Tarry! Until flesh dies.
Tarry! Until ambition dies.
When your prayer doesn’t get answered, stop praying about the issue of concern, and start praying for yourself. Many answers to prayers are growth-dependent. You can accelerate your answer by evolving. It takes buying and selling to attract wealth, and it takes strength to retain wealth. (Proverbs 11:16) When your prayer does not get answered beyond a certain level, stop praying about what you are praying for, and start praying for yourself, for growth and stature. The faster you change, the quicker the answer; accelerate your answers by evolving in a hurry. Many answers where designed to answer to growth. There are many things we are praying for that only responds to growth. The reason why you picked the signal for the need-inspired prayer is because it is originally in your destiny.
