Spiritual Waiting Room

Sometimes, as Christians, we can become depressed, and feel forgotten or forsaken when things don’t happen right away. We’ll get frustrated when we witness others being blessed with the very things we’ve been praying and preparing for. But what if, maybe, this is your season to wait? You do realize we don’t go right from planting to harvesting, right? There will be a wait.

This month God gave me the series Waiting Room. Yet, here’s a few things I want to point out about the spiritual waiting room.

  1. A waiting room is usually found in a place where you need a service. You wouldn’t be here if you didn’t need to be.
  2. A waiting room isn’t the place for you to stay. You can get comfortable but don’t lose focus on the why. You are here to wait, not stay.
  3. A waiting room isn’t where you’ll get the results. The waiting room is only a temporary holding point between hearing God’s promise and it being fulfilled.
  4. While in the waiting room, you need to act like you have sense. In other words, wait well. Stop complaining, gossiping, lying, etc. God pays attention to how we wait and treat people.
  5. Don’t be moved when you see others going ahead of you. You don’t know what they’re waiting for nor who they are “seeing.”
  6. Act like you know … Your time will soon come!

How will you act in the waiting room?

Lakisha is an author of over thirty Christian Fiction novels, devotionals and journals. Over the course of her career, she's had the opportunity to meet new people, win awards, and most of all encourage. Ask her and she’ll tell you, ”It’s not just writing, its ministry.” In addition to being a self-published author, she’s also a wife of 26 years, mother of 2, Grammie to 1, Pastor of Temple Church, Sr. Business Analyst and more. Yet, if you were to strip away everything, you’d see that Lakisha is simply a woman who boldly, unapologetically and gladly loves and works for God.
