As we ponder His Word, the Holy Spirit applies it to the circumstances of our lives. We are a proponent of the Christian encountering God in a fresh way that is relevant to his or her life, and we believe this can occur when we wait for God quietly with our Bibles outspread before us. The prophet Habakkuk mirrors this philosophy of prayer when he says that after speaking to God he would then “climb up on the watchtower and wait to see what the Lord will say to me.” ( Habakkuk 2:1). The Psalmist himself said that not only would he bring his requests to God in prayer but then “wait expectantly” ( Psalm 5:3) for God’s response. ![]()
