Faith That Waits For God’s Timing Series

Contributed by Brian Williams on Dec 27, 2025

God’s delays are by design to develop godly character and deepen our dependence on Him

Last Sunday in our Dust to Life series we saw how Joseph’s fear of the Lord and godly convictions brought him through Potiphar’s wife's seductive siege. However, when she didn’t get her way with him and instead accused him of the wrongdoing, Potiphar had him thrown in jail. We don’t know ...read more

God's Delay (Psalm 13)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jan 9, 2026

Is God's delay His perfect timing?

When we cry out to God in distress, do we remember His faithfulness? Let’s look at Psalm 13. Do we sometimes think that God has forgotten us, or is hiding from us? Lord, how long will You forget me? Forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? (Ps 13:1 HCSB) Is David asking a total of four ...read more

Making Sense Of God's Delays

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jan 18, 2022

When we receive a calling it can be exciting! We will start looking forward to seeing that calling realized! But, for a reason known only to God, we might have to wait a while before we see His plan fulfilled. Here's one possible reason why.

When we receive a calling from the Lord it can be an exciting time! We will immediately start looking forward to seeing our calling realized!

Prayers From The Deep - Part 2 Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 13, 2019

Like the prodigal son, Jonah came to himself in his moment of despair. He cried out unto the Lord, desiring renewed fellowship with Him. Seeking to flee the Lord's presence cannot delay the inevitable.

Prayers from the Deep (Part 2) Jonah 1:17 – 2:10 In our last study we began the most familiar portion within the book of Jonah – his being swallowed by the great fish. Again, I want to emphasize the dominant theme conveyed throughout the book – the absolute sovereignty of God in all His dealings, ...read more

Sowing In Hard Places

Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Aug 6, 2012

SOWING BY ITS VERY NATURE IS ABOUT GETTING WHAT YOU WANT TO HAVE, NOT WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE. You sow into dirt because you want strawberries. Three principles that show how hard sowing can be: The principle of death; delay; and the principle of deceit.

Sowing in Hard Places How many of you have heard a preacher somewhere tell you that you want to sow your seed into good soil so that you can receive a good harvest? Makes sense that we should sow our seed into the best soil possible doesn’t it? No farmer in his right mind sows seed into bad soil. ...read more

When Your Flight Has Been Delayed

Contributed by Herman E. Wesley Iii on Sep 12, 2010

This is frustrating to us, because somewhere in our psyche we believe that if we do everything we’re supposed to do, everything is going to happen like it’s supposed to happen! This delay does not occur based on anything you may or may not have done.

Wesley III WHEN YOUR FLIGHT HAS BEEN DELAYED Exodus 3:7-10 INTRODUCTION Nothing is as frustrating in the life of the traveler, than to: Pack your bags...on time, Get in your car...on time, Leave your house...on time, Arrive at the airport...on time, To be at the appropriate ...read more
