The Prayer of waiting on God more and more...
As we still ourselves before Him and wait in His presence we are filled and prepared for obedience when He does call upon us to act.
The purpose of waiting is to be equipped for service. Even the disciples, who had walked for three years with Jesus, and who had enjoyed 40 days of post-resurrection teaching concerning the Kingdom of God, were warned not to try anything until they had tarried (waited) for the infilling of the Holy Spirit which would equip them for the work (Luke 24:49).
Abiding in God
Intimacy with God is the key to fruitfulness in every area of our lives. As we become more aware of His presence in us, so do other people. As we become more affected by His presence in us, so do those around us.
By taking time in the secret place with God, we start to walk by spirit in everyday life. We find that rather than striving to achieve things for God, He is building His kingdom through us. "Not by might, not by power, but by His Spirit."
