Unless God Moves Psalms 60: 11

                          (Give us help from trouble:  for vain is the help of man.)

                           Unless God moves:

            1.            The problems will continue.

            2.            Men will continue to usurp control.

            3.            Hurts and misunderstandings will continue.

            4.            Those sensitive to God will be oppressed by those insensitive to God.

            5.            The work of the Lord will be hindered.

            6.            The efforts of man are futile.

            7.            The servant of God waits.


To fail in waiting is to be impatient and to reap anxieties and fear.
Frustration sets in, willfulness follows, works of the flesh are pursued.
Men try to make man better.

Waits in trust; waits in grief; waits to know, to understand why, waits for God’s justice;.
This is ultimate waiting- the ultimate trial.
In waiting the servant learns wisdom, faith,: and how much he needs God; the necessity of God to work, the necessity of God’s honor, the necessity of God being God.
