Magnificent Prayer #175
Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
Psalm 27:14 KJV
Frequently the richest answers are not the speediest…A prayer may be all the longer on its voyage because it is bringing us a heavier freight of blessing. Delayed answers are not only trials of faith, but they give us an opportunity of honoring God by our steadfast confidence in Him under apparent repulses.
CHARLES HADDON SPURGEON
Pray About It: If your prayers are delayed in being answered, it may be because a larger blessing is coming. Don’t hurry God. His long-coming answers are the sweetest when they finally arrive.
I never prayed sincerely for anything but that it came. At some time, no matter at how distant a day, somehow, in some shape—probably the last I should devise—it came.
