Isaiah 45, 46
What does a God do for you? Jehovah God promises to sustain us, provide for us, heal us, lead us … God can and will do ALL that is needed to navigate this life.
Thank about it this way. God has promised to supply our need. Why then do we spend so much time and energy going after what we want rather than waiting and allowing God to provide what we really need. We run the risk of wasting time and effort pursuing the thing God already has IN THE PIPELINE OF PROVISION. If we get what we want in our own efforts, we could have an Ishmael on our hands.
Wait for Isaac.
