Text: Ecclesiastes 3:11
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
God’s timing is always perfect, even when it stretches our patience. Scripture reminds us that God makes everything beautiful in His time, not according to our pressure or expectations (Ecclesiastes 3:11). Delays are not denials; they are often divine preparations working quietly behind the scenes.
Rushing ahead of God can lead to unnecessary struggles and regret. Waiting on the Lord is not a sign of weakness but a process that strengthens faith and builds endurance (Psalm 27:14). In waiting, God aligns our hearts with His will and prepares us for what is ahead.
Those who patiently trust the Lord eventually inherit His promises at the appointed time. The Bible encourages believers to follow those who through faith and patience obtain what God has promised (Hebrews 6:12). Patience positions us for lasting blessings rather than temporary gains.
As you walk through this year, choose to trust God’s timing completely. Even when the vision seems slow in coming, it will surely come to pass at the right moment (Habakkuk 2:3). God never arrives late, and His plans for your life will unfold beautifully.
Reflective Nugget: Ask yourself, “What area of my life requires patience and trust in God’s timing?
