Hearing God's Heart

DAY 30 OF 30

Wait on the Lord


The Holy Spirit is Himself the servant Spirit of heaven. He waits on God and serves the people of God. Waiting on God is not only for those who naturally enjoy quietness, but for those who have deeply agreed with the mind of the Spirit, that wills to exalt Christ and the Father. The Holy Spirit is invisible in form, but also it is His will to be unnoticed.

The delight of all who wait on God is that they are filled with God’s servant Spirit, and absorbed into God’s serving life. This is the unspeakable joy of the person who waits on God. It is given to him or her to look on God and serve Him. It is not the quietness of meditation, but the hush of concentrated gaze on the living God. Waiting on God is full of the joy of self-denial so that God’s Presence may fill everything, His will prevail, and His rule and kingdom come. Waiting on God is the Spirit of heaven, and it must be the Spirit of God’s people.

In a good restaurant the waiter observes the customer and foresees their every need and is ready to provide it. He doesn’t make himself the centre of the process but his skill is in being in the background. This is the skill that those who wait on God have acquired. They attend on God with glad surrender, happy just to be honoured to serve in His presence.
