Esperar no Senhor: como renovar as forças no cansaço
Para renovar as forças no cansaço da espera
Esperar no Senhor não é inércia, mas a decisão diária de confiar quando tudo parece parado. A Bíblia ensina que essa espera não desgasta a sua vida: ela devolve o fôlego a quem não aguenta mais lutar com as próprias forças.
But they that wait upon the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) shall renew [their] strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; [and] they shall walk, and not faint.(Isaiah 40:31)
Dá fôlego novo para continuar caminhando quando a exaustão faz parecer que você não vai aguentar o resto da semana.
Wait on the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen youri heart: wait, I say, on the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate].(Tehillim - Psalms 27:14)
Sustenta o coração na hora da fraqueza, lembrando que a coragem nasce de descansar em Deus, não de tentar controlar o desfecho.
And therefore will the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) wait, that he may be gracious unto you, and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you: for the LORD-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) [is] a God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of judgment: Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) [are] all they that wait for him.(Isaiah 30:18)
Tira a sensação de abandono e garante que Deus não está atrasado: Ele prepara o momento certo para estender a mão.
Para acalmar o coração quando a pressa aperta
I waited patiently for the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, [and] established my goings.
And he has put a new song in my mouth, [even] praise unto our God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]: many shall see [it], and fear, and shall trust in the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate].
Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) [is] that man that makes the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] his trust, and respects not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
Many, O LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] my God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], [are] youri wonderful works [which] youi have done, and youri thoughts [which are] toward us: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto youi: [if] I would declare and speak [of them], they are more than can be numbered.
Sacrifice and offering youi did not desire; mine ears have youi opened: burnt offering and sin offering have youi not required.
Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book [it is] written of me,
I delight to do youi will, O my God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]: yea, youri law [is] within my heart.
I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], youi know.
I have not hid youri righteousness within my heart; I have declared youi faithfulness and youi salvation: I have not concealed youri lovingkindness and youri tfrom the great congregation.
Withhold not youi youri tender mercies from me, O LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]: let youri lovingkindness and youri tcontinually preserve me.
For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart fails me.
Be pleased, O LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], to deliver me: O LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], make haste to help me.
Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.(Tehillim - Psalms 40:1-14)
Mostra que o seu clamor não se perdeu no vazio e que Deus é especialista em tirar os pés da lama para colocá-los em terra firme.
My soul, wait youi only upon God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]; for my expectation [is] from him.(Tehillim - Psalms 62:5)
Cala a ansiedade e devolve a serenidade, ensinando a alma a não depender de garantias humanas para ficar em paz.
I wait for the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], my soul does wait, and in his word do I hope.
My soul [waits] for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: [I say, more than] they that watch for the morning.(Tehillim - Psalms 130:5,6)
Acolhe a angústia da vigília e traz a certeza de que a fidelidade de Deus vai raiar na sua vida com a mesma pontualidade da manhã.
Para perseverar quando a promessa parece longe
Trust in the LORD-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] with all youi heart; and lean not unto youi own understanding.
In all youi ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct youi paths.(Mishlei - Proverbs 3:5,6)
Descarrega o fardo de ter que descobrir todas as respostas sozinho e entrega o mapa da sua vida a quem enxerga a curva da estrada.
Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord - Kurios. Behold, the farmer (or rancher) waits for the precious fruit of the earth, and has long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.
Be you2f also patient; establish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord - Kurios draws near.(Jacob 5:7,8)
Ajuda a tolerar a espera lembrando que a semente lançada em oração está germinando em segredo, mesmo que os olhos ainda não vejam o fruto.
The Lord - Kurios is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward (in custody, with a guard; prison), not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.(2 Peter 3:9)
Troca o desespero da demora pela confiança no caráter de um Pai que não quebra promessas nem erra a hora de agir.
