Tired of Waiting?

MAY 20, 2021

Indeed, let no one who waits on You be ashamed.
Psalm 25:3

 Recommended Reading: Psalm 37:34-40

Have you ever experienced a delayed answer to prayer? Well, yes and no. It may have seemed delayed to you, but from God’s perspective it was right on time. If you’re praying about something right now, it’s important to ask God to answer according to the synchronized schedule of His perfect will. J. J. Lynch wrote a poem about this that was often quoted by V. Raymond Edman of Wheaton College:

His wisdom is sublime,

His heart profoundly kind;

God never is before His time,

And never is behind.

As we pray faithfully, God answers in His time. So let us learn in prayer to practice Psalm 27:14: “Wait on the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord!” Don’t be discouraged. Never stop praying. Keep your eyes on the Timekeeper, not on the timepiece. The Lord will turn delay into deliverance.

Delay does not forget God’s servants nor cause His faithfulness to fail; rather, it fortifies their souls and vindicates His name.

V. Raymond Edman
