What to Pray When You're Waiting on God (Again)
Description
Have you been waiting on God so long you've stopped counting? Maybe you've even had moments where you thought the answer was finally here — only to find the door was still closed.
In this episode, Rachel opens Psalm 27:14 and unpacks what David really meant when he said "be strong and take heart." Guess what? Waiting on God is not passive. It's one of the most active, courageous things we can do in our faith. Rachel also shares a deeply personal story of a 16-year prayer that was finally answered last week — and what the long wait revealed about God's faithfulness.
You'll discover:
- Why David repeats "wait for the LORD" twice — and what that tells us about how hard waiting really is
- The difference between waiting in dread and waiting in expectation
- Why "be strong" is a command God equips us to obey
- What those "almost" moments of unanswered prayer are actually doing in us
- How the waiting room grows something that the answer alone never could
If you're tired of waiting and wondering if God even remembers your prayer, this episode is for you.
