Yesterday, we saw that when our request is wrong God says “No” to our prayers.
When our request is good but the timing is wrong, God says, “Wait.”
For instance when a child asks if he/she can drive and get a car of their own, if they are not yet sixteen, the answer is “wait.” It is not a forever wait, but it is until they are able to get a license of their own.
We may pray for good things – for a God-honoring spouse, for a job that allows us to work and serve God, etc. – but when the timing is not right, God will answer our prayers with “wait.”
It is not a forever denial. It’s just not the right time.
And in the waiting time, God is preparing us to be ready to receive His blessing.
When the request is wrong, God says “No.”
When the timing is wrong, God says, “Wait.”
