Dunamis Seeds Of Destiny 12 October 2024 Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche: Keys To Waiting On God
TOPIC: Keys To Waiting On God (Seeds Of Destiny 12 October 2024)
SCRIPTURE: One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple. Psalm 27:4.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Desperation is a vital key that keeps you in God’s Presence; desperation makes you wait on God.
MESSAGE:
The Scripture makes it clear that they that wait on the Lord shall renew their strength (Isaiah 40:31). Waiting on the Lord has a lot of benefits and blessings.
In our study today, we shall be looking at two vital keys to waiting on God effectively and successfully.
i. The key of Desperation and Determination.
You must be desperate and determined to wait on God and receive something from Him.
Psalm 63:1 says,
O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
Desperation is a vital key that keeps you in God’s Presence; desperation makes you to wait on God.
ii. The key of Definition.
You must define what and why you are waiting on the Lord. You must define what you are expecting from God when you wait on Him. You must know that when you wait on the Lord, you are in His Presence for a definite purpose, and that purpose must be defined.
Psalm 27:4 says,
One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple.
From this Scripture, we understand that David identified and defined why he waited on the Lord. He said, “one thing have I desired of thee…”
He did not desire two or three things, but one thing, and it was to behold the beauty of the Lord.
I decree that the Lord will baptise you with the spirit of desperation and determination. Receive the grace to define what you need when you wait on the Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
Remember this: Desperation is a vital key that keeps you in God’s Presence; desperation makes you wait on God.
ASSIGNMENTS:
- Ask God to baptize you afresh with the spirit of desperation and determination.
- Always define in clear terms the reason you want to wait on God.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You baptize me with fresh grace for desperation and determination. I receive the discipline to wait on You, Lord in Jesus’ Name.

DAILY READING: Matthew 18-20.
AMAZING FACT: Your right kidney is placed slightly lower than your left one.
