What does waiting on God mean for believers?

Answered in 1 source

Waiting on God involves trusting in His timing and remaining faithful to His commands.

Waiting on God signifies a posture of faith, reflecting an understanding that God's timing is different from our own. In 2 Peter 3, the warning against questioning God's promises emphasizes the importance of patience and belief in His providence. The believer's ability to wait patiently signifies trust in God's sovereignty and His plans, which are ultimately for our good and His glory (2 Peter 3:9). This waiting is not passive; it results in active diligence in pursuing a godly life and sharing the gospel, demonstrating our readiness for His return.
