Psalm 62:5 - "My soul, wait thou only upon God, for my expectation is from Him." In our lives and in our worship, we need to come to the practical experience of realizing that God is really with us every moment no matter what our circumstances are. Too many of God's children complain that my circumstances, my trials, my temptations, my character, my temper, my enemies, my friends come between my God and me. To believe these things shows that many do not know the God they serve and worship. It is the evidence that many of God's people do not know their God.
Many times in scripture we see the phrase, "And ye shall know that I am your God." We will take anything rather than God - ministers, preaching, books, prayers, work, efforts; anything but actually waiting on God to reveal Himself. When God has first place in our lives, with our eyes set upon Him, with an attitude of "My soul thirsts for God", He will take possession and the presence of the everlasting God will be revealed. Scripture makes clear that "Christ died that He might bring us unto God."
How do we wait? First and foremost in prayer. Prayer and waiting on God to reveal Himself are paramount to our worship. Our expectation is from Him. If we truly want to experience God and His presence than the cry of our hearts will be more of God! And let us say to ourselves, "My soul, wait thou upon God, for my expectation is from Him."
