Waiting on God’s Timing
Waiting is one of the hardest things a man can do—especially when everything in him wants to fix the situation or force progress. Psalm 27:14 is a call to spiritual maturity. It reminds us that waiting isn’t weakness; it’s a form of trust. To wait for the Lord means to acknowledge that God’s timing is better than ours, and that His silence is not absence—it’s preparation.
The verse pairs waiting with strength. That’s important. In a world that demands instant answers, a man who waits with courage and faith stands out. This kind of strength doesn’t come from passivity, but from intentional surrender. It's the strength to hold your ground when nothing is changing, to keep praying when nothing is happening, and to keep believing when nothing is visible.
When you're waiting on healing, restoration, breakthrough, or direction—don’t mistake the delay for denial. God is working, even in the pause. Psalm 27:14 is your anchor in that space. Be strong, take heart, and keep waiting. God will move when the moment is right—and when He does, it will be better than anything you could have forced.
