Delay ≠ Denial: What God Is Still Developing in You

Just because it hasn’t happened yet…doesn’t mean it’s not on the way.

I know you’ve been faithful.

You’ve prayed, you’ve planned, you’ve sacrificed.

You’ve said no to good things so you could stay ready for the God thing.

But the doors didn’t open yet.

The sales didn’t take off yet.

The clarity, the funding, the confirmation, it still hasn’t come.

Can I tell you something that might sound simple, but it’s life-giving when you’re tired?

God’s delay is not God’s denial.

He’s not teasing you.

He’s not punishing you.

He’s not withholding what you’re praying for just to see how long you’ll wait.

Sometimes God withholds it because He’s still building you.

And honestly, sometimes it’s not about readiness, it’s about rhythm.

He’s aligning things in the spirit that you can’t see with your eyes. He’s protecting you from being pushed into the spotlight without the spiritual stamina to sustain it.

If you got it too soon, you might mishandle it. If you blew up overnight, you might burn out by next week.

So keep showing up.

Keep building. Keep making room for the promise, even when it feels like you're building on silence.

Because you’re not behind. You’re being positioned.

And when the time is right, it’ll come together so fast your only response will be, "Only God could’ve done this."

Don’t quit now. The promise still stands.
