But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
Is 40:31
Q & A：
- Have you felt weary, tired or heavy laden physically or mentally from long exercises, work or dealing with people/relationship? How do we renew our strength especially spiritually just as the eagles wait for the thermals to soar effortlessly, knowing that the grace of God is always accessible for us? (Isa 40:31; Matt 11:28-29)
- How do we wait on the Lord to draw strength from God in practice, in reference to the choice of living for the Lord, seeking God’s will and His face rather than dictating God to bless our plans? Discuss what attitudes we should have while we listen to God and wait on the Lord and what hinders us from seeking the Lord only when we come to a dead end. (Hab 2:1-2; Gal 2:20; John 5:30; 1 John 5:14-15; Jer 29:11-14a)
- Why is it important to be in the presence of God each day and what spiritual discipline have you intentionally developed to be nourished and recharged? Discuss how we should tune ourselves to listen to God’s still voice and how God communicates and reveals to us His instructions, directions and answers. (Exo 33:15; Psa 84:10-12; John 10:27)
