Wait for the Lord

The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the person who seeks him. Lamentations 3:25

qavah (OT Heb): wait eagerly for, look for, hope, expect
wait (AHD Eng): to remain inactive in anticipation

For everyone who waits for the Lord, the Lord will in return:

Exalt you to inherit the land
Incline toward and draw near to you
Hear and attend to your prayers
Bring you out of the "miry clays" which impede your progress
Set your feet upon the Rock
Make your footsteps firm and sure; you will not stumble
Give you strength
Enable you to soar like an eagle, high above care and worry
Enable you to run and walk with continuous energy
Act in your belalf
Be good to you; show you his goodness

Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; yes, wait for the Lord. Psalm 27:14

Wait for the Lord, and keep his way, and he will exalt you to inherit the land. Psalm 37:34

I waited patiently (intently) for the Lord; and he inclined to me, and heard my cry. He brought me up out of the miry clay; and he set my feet upon a rock making my footsteps firm. Psalm 40:1

Those who wait for the Lord will gain new strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles, they will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weary. Isaiah 40:31

For from of old they have not heard nor perceived by ear, neither has the eye seen a God besides you, who acts in behalf of the one who waits for him. Isaiah 64:4
