Episode 10: Why God Makes Us Wait

For most people, every day, week, month, or year spent waiting can feel like a waste of time. But for God, our waiting period represents the time He is actively working in our lives to transform us to be who He wants us to be. In this episode, we discuss the purpose behind God’s delayed answers, including how to learn to value the waiting period. By looking at the stories of Abraham and the raising of Lazarus, we examine how God often comes through for us at the time when all hope is lost and there is absolutely nothing that can be been done to reverse our circumstances. The time we spend waiting for breakthroughs and answered prayers, God is teaching us to trust Him, depend on Him, and believe in His promises. First God changes who are, then He changes our circumstances.
