What is it you've been praying for?
Whether it's healing, financial blessings, or some other breakthrough that seems it will never come, know that, by the power of God, it can happen.
But after you've been waiting a couple of weeks, which turns into a couple of months, that turns into a couple of years, believing God for your blessing can be tough. You've done all you can to focus and hope in God, but the desires of your heart seem like they'll never come to pass (Psalm 37:4).
Your prayer request has seemingly been sitting on the shelf, collecting dust. When will you get one of these awesome miracles you hear others speak about? Has God forgotten you?
Well, the good news is God's promises don't expire with time.
Take Abram and Sarai for example. They wanted a child before their names became Abraham and Sarah. If you track Abraham's age progression from the first mention of the covenant through the waiting period, you'll see they had to wait a whopping 25 years for their promised child (Genesis 12-21)!
If you need another example, there was the woman with the issue of blood (Luke 8:43-48), who waited twelve years before she got her healing-- and there are countless other examples.
The Israelites weren't instantly freed from slavery and brought into the Promised Land, either. It took 400 long years for freedom to come, but it did happen.
Joseph didn't immediately become a ruler in Egypt, but it happened. You may not have received the answer to your prayer yet, but it will happen.
God hears you, and He will give you the answer you need (1 John 5:14-15), just keep believing. It may not happen on your time, but it will happen on time.
Your miracle will happen.
