Episode Summary:In this episode, Tola dives deeper into the theme of Revival by focusing on Psalm 40:1, "I waited patiently for the Lord, and He inclined to me and heard my cry." She explores the challenges many face when asking God for help, including feelings of rejection, fear, and shame. Tola encourages listeners to shift their perspective on waiting—viewing it as an act of trust and anticipation in God’s timing.
Key Takeaways:

Waiting Patiently and Expectantly:

Biblical waiting involves trusting, hoping, and actively seeking God’s presence while having faith in His timing.
God’s word of revival is a promise to restore every area of our lives.


Overcoming Barriers to Asking for Help:

Past experiences of unanswered prayers or perceived rejection may hinder us from asking God for help.
Fear of the process or shame of not yet receiving what we’ve prayed for can also create resistance.


The Importance of Expectant Waiting:

Waiting expectantly means believing that God is in control and that His plans for us are good.
Let go of past disappointments and trust that God hears your cry and that He is working for your good.



Reflection Questions:

Are past experiences or fears preventing you from asking God for help?
How can you shift your perspective on waiting, from frustration to hopeful anticipation?

Practical Application:

Meditate on Psalm 40:1 and reflect on what it means to wait patiently and expectantly for God.
Identify any barriers—shame, fear, or disappointment—that may be holding you back from asking God for help.
Pray for the courage to trust in God’s process and timing, releasing past experiences to Him.

Closing Encouragement:The waiting room is not a place of rejection but a place where God prepares you for what’s to come. Let go of fear and shame, and approach this year with hopeful anticipation of the revival God has promised. Trust that He hears your cry and will respond in His perfect timing.
