    About this ebook

    Basically, this book is an exhortation to Christians to wait on God in surrender and trust, looking to Him for motivation, wisdom, and direction. The book, while both practical and theological and philosophical, is thoroughly grounded in Scripture. It is also a testimonial, giving God glory for delivering me "out of darkness into His marvelous Light" (I Pet. 2:9) through His beloved Son, Jesus Christ.

    Brad Price

    In 2013, I published my first book “Waiting on God”. Then, in 2019 I published a sequel “Free Will and the Seven Stages to Christian Maturity”. Finally, the Lord blessed me with a barrage of lengthy tracts: “Intercessory Prayer”, “Communion”, “You Can be Led by Jesus Christ”, “The Voice of the Lord”, “Rest Zeal and Spontaneity”, “The Word and the Spirit”, and “Without Hands”. These are the ones that are presently published, I have completed many more, but they are in the process of being published. If you are interested in these, and a list of those to come, I’ll send them to you at a nominal fee of $.25 just to cover author’s cost. My address is 238 Heath Lane, Jacksonville, TX., 75766, and I can also be reached at 903.372.5049, or at brad.price.53@gmail.com.

      Waiting on God - Brad Price

      CHAPTER I

      Strength

      Is. 40:28-31 Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth does not become weary or tired. His understanding is inscrutable. He gives strength to the weary, and to him who lacks might He increases power. Though youths grow weary and tired, and vigorous young men stumble badly, yet those who wait for the Lord will gain new strength; they will mount up with wings as eagles, they will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weary.

      Matt. 7:7 Keep asking [Gk.], and it will be given you . . .

      I Cor. 2:3-5 I was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling, and my message and preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and power, so that your faith would not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.

      Luke 1:4, 8 He commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised . . . . ‘but you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses . . .’

      II Tim. 3:1-2, 5 But realize this that in the last days difficult times will come. For men will be . . . holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power.

      The first thing we need as lost creatures of God is forgiveness and deliverance: forgiveness for, and deliverance from, our sins against God and our fellow men. This freedom from the guilt and power of sin we find in the precious Blood of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I Jn. 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Heb. 9:14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

      But then having this need met, we are struck with another need—the need for strength, or power, to serve the Lord. This too is found in Jesus Christ, and it (actually, He—the Holy Spirit) comes as we learn to wait upon the Lord. Yet to receive this precious Power we must allow ourselves to become weak before Him, letting go and surrendering to His Will. As Paul said, When I am weak, then am I strong.—II Cor. 12:10 We need to follow the example of Jesus who emptied Himself, taking the form of a bondservant.—Phil. 2:7 Faith is two-fold: it involves trust and surrender. May the Lord grant us grace to trust in His forgiveness and surrender to His Will day by day. If we will learn to wait upon Him in such surrender and trust we shall surely find ample Strength for the journey.

      CHAPTER II

      The Sabbath

      Ex. 20:8-10 Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of the Lord your God; in it you shall not do any work. Many Christians pride themselves on keeping the Ten Commandments, yet how many of us are keeping the Sabbath? There is a certain denomination that observes it legally, as does the Jews, but was that the Lord’s ultimate intent—that we rest one day out of the week? Col. 2:16-17 Therefore no one is to act as your judge in regard to food or drink or in respect to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day—things which are a mere shadow of what is to come; but the substance belongs to Christ. In Christ we discover God’s ultimate aim, His true Sabbath. For when Christ on the Cross declared, It is finished!, His Work was done, and He entered into an everlasting Sabbath, a perennial Rest. And we,
