In today’s society fast food is making billions. It’s slogans are
“have it your way” and “have it hot and and have it now”. How easy it is
for us to fall into this “fast food mentality”. It has almost become
who we are. But in God’s kingdom there’s no fast food. We can’t always
have it our way and now. When we are caught up in this fast food
mentality, we lose the true meaning of patience. True patience is the
ability to wait on the Lord through trials without complaining and
worrying; it is to be tested and persevere through trial.
We need to be patiently waiting on the Lord to answer us in a new
way! We cannot shortcut the things of God. If we want a deeper anointing
of the Spirit in our lives, we need to avoid this fast food mentality.
We cannot have a deeper walk with the Lord without spending time in his
Word, without spending time in intimate prayer, without walking in
repentance and humility, and practicing a life of holiness. Is this a
tall order? Yes, but when we are focused on God and patiently waiting on
Him to answer — He will preparing a blessing beyond our imagination!
Let’s not settle for a hamburger, fries and coke — when the Lord has a delicious, heavenly feast prepared for us!
