Deut. 8:2,3-And thou shalt remember all the way which the Lord thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou would keep his commandments, or not.  And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knew not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man does not live by bread only, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live. Psalm 62:1-My soul waits only upon God, from him comes my salvation. Genesis 49:18-I have waited for thy salvation O Lord.

(remember God’s help in the past; look to his word) Psalm 130:5,6-I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

(the context is very generous giving) Psalm 145:18,19-The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.

Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good, And let your soul delight itself in abundance. 2Chron 30:8,9-Now do not be stiff-necked, as your fathers were, but yield yourselves to the Lord; and enter His sanctuary, which He has sanctified forever, and serve the Lord your God, that the fierceness of

His wrath may turn away from you. 9 For if you return to the Lord, your brethren and your children will be treated with compassion by those who lead them captive, so that they may come back to this land; for the Lord your God is gracious and merciful, and will not turn His face from you if you return to Him.” Psalm 37:4,5-Trust in the Lord, and do good; Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.

Delight yourself also in the Lord, And He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.
