    Waiting is one of the hardest lessons in life. We live in a world of instant answers and quick results. We microwave our meals, we stream movies instantly, we send a message and expect a reply within seconds. Yet God often calls us into a season where His answer is not immediate.

     | 654 views

    What does the word “laziness” mean? Laziness is being unwilling to work or being idle.

    Certain individuals in the Thessalonian church were dishonestly instructing that since Christ would return quickly, individuals ought to save their obligations, quit work, do no future preparation, and simply just stand by and wait. Be that as it may, their absence of action just drove them into ...read more

    A two-part series on discovering what God would have us do while we wait for His return.

    I want to begin this morning by asking you a question: do you know what you are supposed to be doing? The question is simple enough—it’s a yes or no answer. But the implications of that answer range far beyond that. Ask a little child what he or she wants to be when they grow up, and they’ll ...read more

    Jesus tells us to "keep watch" and "be faithful" while we are waiting for His return. What did He mean by these words?

    I Google the question “predictions on the end of the world” and found a web site that has documented 200 predictions for end of the world from as early as the first century reaching out to 2047.

    In any competition, the most important factor is not how many begin with the contest, but who finishes and completes the course. Paul declared in Hebrews 12:1-3. “Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so ...read more

    When The Promise Takes Longer Than Expected

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Aug 14, 2025
     | 181 views

    The length of the wait does not diminish the certainty of the promise. God’s delays are not denials; they are divine preparations. Every moment of waiting is building you for the day of fulfilment.

    WHEN THE PROMISE TAKES LONGER THAN EXPECTED By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Habakkuk 2:2-3 Key Verse: “For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” (Habakkuk 2:3, ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,305 views

    The times, like those of post-Exilic Jerusalem, require us to wait. Will it be passive, impassive, or active waiting? Active waiting means seeing that what God has done He will do again. God will enlist us and shape us to work for His purposes.

    “We wait. We are bored. No, don’t protest, we are bored to death, there’s no denying it. … A diversion comes along and what do we do? We let it go to waste . . . .In an instant all will vanish and we’ll be alone once more, in the midst of nothingness!” So speaks one of the characters in Samuel ...read more
