How do we wait upon God according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

We wait upon God with sincerity of heart and submission to His will.

Psalm 62 teaches that our waiting upon God entails sincerity and silence in our hearts, as expressed in verses 1 and 5. This kind of waiting is not passive; it is an active trust in God’s character and sovereignty, as affirmed in Isaiah 40:31, which says, 'But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength.' In a Reformed context, waiting on God underscores our reliance on His mercy and providence, reminding us that true spiritual strength comes from entrusting ourselves completely to Him while recognizing that all expectation of blessings originates solely from Him.
