Notes on this verse:

“Wait upon the Lord”: There is a general principle here that patient, praying believers are blessed by God with strength in their trials (2 Cor. 12:8-10). The Lord also expects His people to be patient while awaiting His coming in glory at the end to fulfill the promises of national deliverance, when believing Israel would become stronger than they had ever been.

The frailty of man gives God the opportunity to pour His strength into us when we ask for His help. When we pray, we must believe and patiently wait for His answer. The strength of the Lord in us makes it possible for us to do all things well.

Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”
