In Touch, the teaching ministry of Dr. Charles Stanley.

Next on In Touch, Part 1 of When It's Wise to Wait.

Right timing is very critical. It is critical in warfare. It is oftentimes critical in science.

It is critical in every area of sports on the football field, the baseball field, the tennis

court, the golf course. Right timing is extremely important in negotiating, in business

deals, in the stock market, in expressing

love or anger, in every single area of life, timing does make a difference and in some areas

extremely critical. But for most people, they probably never think about the idea that

timing is extremely crucial

in the believer's walk.

That is, in our relationship to Christ, and our relationship to others, is timing really important?

Yes, it is.

And that's what I want to talk about in this message when it's wise to wait.

That's the title, when it's wise to wait. This is the first of a two-part

series when it is wise to wait, talking about waiting upon the Lord. And I want you to turn,

if you will, to Psalm 27. And the 27th Psalm, I just want us to look at this one verse. I'm going

to give you lots of verses here. But the 27th Psalm and the 14th Psalm, I just want us to look at this one verse, I'm gonna give you lots of verses here,

but the 27th Psalm and the 14th verse

is a wonderful admonition for us.

And I wanna discuss this whole issue

of what it means to wait upon the Lord

and how important it is in our life.
