When God Answers "Slow"

I am not a preacher but I decided to share these messages I received today to those who are spiritually guided to read this article. It says:  

"When the time is not right, God says, "Slow." Nowhere in the entire Bible can you find a Bible verse that says that God will do anything you ask Him to do when you snap your fingers. God does not offer an automatic prayer-answering service.

God maintains control on the why and when. If God answers no to your very sincere prayer, and you ask Him why, God will not answer or explain. God doesn't answer your why question because raising the question means you are not satisfied with the no.

You want to argue and God refuses to be drawn into an argument. He knows that any explanation He might give would not satisfy you.

If God answered every prayer at the snap of your fingers He would become your servant-not your master. God would be working for you, instead of you working for God.

God's delays are not God's denials. God's timing is perfect. Patience is needed in prayer. Some people don't suffer from doubt as much as from impatience.

A man said to me, "I have lost faith in prayer." After listening to him I said, "You have not really lost faith in prayer because you are still praying. You haven't lost faith. You simply lost patience."

"Faith" is . . . P-A-T-I-E-N-C-E. Patience is the inner meaning of faith!

"O rest in the Lord, wait patiently for Him and He shall give thee thy heart's desire. O rest in the Lord, wait patiently, wait patiently for Him."
