For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay. — Habakkuk 2:3

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose." — Romans 8:28

Sometimes it feels like the answer will never come, like the promise is stuck in traffic somewhere between heaven and earth. But what if the delay isn’t denial—it’s divine design? What if God’s “not yet” is an act of mercy to shape your heart for what’s coming?

We don’t serve a God who wastes time. Every season of waiting is working behind the scenes—aligning people, building character, growing trust. God is never late, and His timing is never flawed. Even in silence, He’s preparing the scene for your breakthrough.

So don’t give up just because it hasn’t happened yet. Your delay might be the very thing setting up your destiny.

Prayer:
Lord, I don’t always understand the waiting—but I trust You in it. Help me believe that Your delay is not rejection, but redirection. Strengthen my faith while I wait. Keep my eyes fixed on You, and let my heart find peace in Your perfect timing. Amen.
