This blog is about today’s devotion in the book Hearing from God Each Morning by Joyce Meyer.
Today’s devotion talks about waiting expectantly and joyfully for our prayers to be answered. I know that for my personally, this is hard sometimes. Sometimes I want an answer to prayer immediately when God intends that I wait days, months, and sometimes even years. And I’m not supposed to just wait. I’m supposed to wait joyfully, and expecting good results, because our God is good. He wants what is good for us. When we pray and wait for an answer, if we just think, “Oh, God will never give me this,” our prayers are pointless. We shouldn’t ask for things we don’t expect to get, and we shouldn’t expect not to get the things we ask for.
A lot of times I’m afraid of getting my hopes up when I pray, but part of trusting God is trusting that He will answer your prayers and do good things for you. God wants to bless us, but He also wants us to wait patiently and joyfully on Him and His timing.
