Listen "Peace for when God says no and wait"
Episode Synopsis
When God Says No or Wait Life is full of moments when we fervently pray for something, only to encounter God's "no" or "wait." These responses can feel confusing, even discouraging, but they are a profound act of His love and wisdom. When God says "no," it's not rejection but redirection. His ways are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:8-9), and He sees the end from the beginning. A "no" may protect us from harm or prepare us for something better. Consider Paul's thorn in the flesh (2 Corinthians 12:7-9). Though he pleaded for its removal, God's "no" taught him to rely on God's sufficient grace. When God says "wait," it's an invitation to trust His timing. Abraham and Sarah waited decades for Isaac, learning patience and faith along the way. In the waiting, God shapes our character, deepens our dependence on Him, and refines our desires to align with His will. Trusting God's "no" and "wait" requires faith in His goodness. His plans are always for our good and His glory (Jeremiah 29:11, Romans 8:28). When we embrace His answers, even when they differ from our desires, we discover the peace and joy of walking in step with His perfect will.
