Waiting in a dream

Biblical meaning from Hearing God's Voice in Dreams by Apostle Nicholas V. Mbanjwa

Also: Patient expectation, Standing by, Waiting on God, Standing and waiting

What it means

Holding one's position; standing in faith; being steadfast and unmovable.

Being expectant; exercising faith with patience.

They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. Waiting in Scripture is an active posture, not an absence of activity.

✦ When it is positive

Trusting God
Exercising faith
Practising patience
Renewed strength given to those who wait

⚠ When it is a warning

How to tell the difference

Distinguish WAITING ON GOD from DELAY. Waiting with peace points to faith; waiting with frustration or with an open door already before the dreamer may point to hesitation. Note whether anyone is waited for, and whether they come.
