Work While You Wait

Work While You Wait
Pastor Tom Watson

Hebrews 12:1 (NIV) – Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us,

1. always precedes the .

Psalms 5:3 (CEV) – Each morning you listen to my prayer, as I bring my requests to you and wait for your reply.

2. are as important as

1 Samuel 17:37 (NIV) – The Lord who rescued me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will rescue me from the hand of this Philistine.”

3. No   is ever   with God.

1 Samuel 17:17-18 (NIV) – Now Jesse said to his son David, “Take this ephah of roasted grain and these ten loaves of bread for your brothers and hurry to their camp. 18 Take along these ten cheeses to the commander of their unit. See how your brothers are and bring back some assurance from them.

Matthew 6:4 (NIV) – so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

1 Corinthians 10:31 (NIV) – So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.

Psalm 69:8 (NIV) – I am a foreigner to my own family, a stranger to my mother’s children.

Psalm 51:5 (NIV) – Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me.

1 Samuel 17:38-39 (NIV) – When Eliab, David’s oldest brother, heard him speaking with the men, he burned with anger at him and asked, “Why have you come down here? And with whom did you leave those few sheep in the wilderness? I know how conceited you are and how wicked your heart is; you came down only to watch the battle.” Then Saul dressed David in his own tunic. He put a coat of armor on him and a bronze helmet on his head. 39 David fastened on his sword over the tunic and tried walking around, because he was not used to them. “I cannot go in these,” he said to Saul, “because I am not used to them.” So he took them off.
