Walking or Waiting

And the LORD said unto me, Behold, I have begun to give Sihon and his land before thee: begin to possess, that thou mayest inherit his land. Deut.2:31

Two things I find here at hand.
1. God's Role: Deliverer and giver - I have began to deliver. (He's a deliverer)
2. Our Responsibility: begin to possess
Our responsibility is advancing and as we advance he is with us, making a way. 
They were not to wait until God had delivered and shouted come on over its done.
They were to hear, because he was near. They were to step forward to discover one mightier than them and their task was with them to conquer and deliver.

Speaking for myself, Waiting and patience sometimes is not my greatest virtue. We live in a time that is spent in HASTE! Been said our motto is, ( Hurry, Worry and Burry ) 
1.We are to wait on His Word:
He guides and directs us with a word. 
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord and so are his Stops.
2.We are to wait on him to Walk: Sometimes He walks slow.

3. Sometimes God is waiting on us.
We hear him, and tarry while waiting on him to make a way, clear a path.
A. When the Children of Israel were at Jordan, the waters did not part until they stepped into it's stream. 
B. The 10 lepers were not cleansed until they went in obedience. ( had they waited to see their cleansing, they would have remained leprous )

Reckon what we are missing out on by tarring and waiting on him to show up, when he is already near and waiting on us?
