”The king also said to Zadok the priest, “Are you not a seer? Return to the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar. See, I will wait in the plains of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me.” Therefore Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusalem. And they remained there.“ II Samuel 15:27-29 NKJV
a. Are you not a seer? David recognized that Zadok was a prophet. A man of supernatural insight might be a valuable information source for David.
Waiting!
Waiting for isn’t easy us or for David about the news of his kingdom! We pray for relief of circumstances and wait….. but I’m reminded of several verses:
”But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.“ II Peter 3:8 NKJV
and Paul prayed about a thorn in his flesh…
”Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.“ II Corinthians 12:8-9 NKJV
Waiting……..it’s His will not ours and it’s His timing not ours!
Don’t give up, continue to pray even for years if necessary!
Blessings
