“While meeting
with them, he enjoined them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for “the
promise of the Father* about
which you have heard me speak; “for John baptized with water, but in a few days
you will be baptized with the holy Spirit.” (Acts 1: 4 – 5)
The word “Wait” has become a key word in the Enterprise
vocabulary. At the onset of the
Enterprise, I prayed that every day I may grow in patience. It took some time to understand that waiting,
patience, endurance, perseverance are synonymous. Then one day, I heard the word which came as
an answer to a blunt question to the Father.
To the question, “how long must I endure the present impasse?” I heard one word in my spirit: “Wait!”
The experience of this elocution was similar to the time when I heard the
unforgettable words, “The only thing you need is the Holy Spirit.”
I knew that the “Wait!” was an answer, a command and a rhema
because later that day, I read this scripture:
"Why are
you downcast, my soul; why do you groan within me? Wait for God, for I shall
again praise him, my savior and my God" (Psalm 42: 6)
The object of the Wait in Acts 1: 4-5 is the Holy
Spirit. What is the object of the Wait
in Psalm 42:6?
