Qavah: To Wait
6960 Hebrew word
To bind together, perhaps by twisting

When we wait upon the Lord, we can be sure He is acting on His Word. He is twisting together our circumstances to be bound to His will. Waiting allows circumstances, people, events, and places to line up with his ways, his timing, and his plans. He leads and guides us as we wait on Him. To wait empowers us to respond to the Spirit, rather than reacting to our flesh. Waiting brings us His best outcome, while hurry is the shortcut to temporary fulfillment, a counterfeit. Next time you find yourself in the waiting room of life, remember it is a good thing. God is twisting together all the ingredients necessary to line up your purpose with His wonderful plan.

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11
