If God heard you, why is the answer taking so long?
Daniel 10 tells us that Daniel’s prayer was heard from the first day, although the answer took 21 days to arrive. That distinction matters. Delay is not always evidence that something has gone wrong.
In this episode, Nerissa Golden examines what waiting can produce in us. From Liverpool Cathedral’s 74-year construction to Jesus sleeping during the storm, this episode explores why character, judgement, maturity and spiritual rest cannot always be rushed.
You will learn:
• Why delay does not necessarily mean denial
• How repetition embeds a lesson at a deeper level
• Why fruitful branches are pruned
• What Jesus’ sleep in the storm teaches us about trust
• How private battles prepare us for greater stewardship
• Why your present process may eventually equip another generation
You are not necessarily being punished. You may be pruned, strengthened and positioned for what comes next.
