Psalm 27:14: “Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.”

Friend, waiting is one of the hardest parts of the Christian life. We live in a world of drive-thru meals, instant downloads, and overnight shipping. But God doesn’t run on Amazon Prime time—He runs on His perfect time. And David reminds us: while you’re waiting, don’t waste the waiting. Be of good courage. Stand tall. Hold on.

The promise is right there: if you’ll wait on Him, He will strengthen your heart. That means when your own heart feels weak, when hope is running low, when you’re not sure you can take another step—God Himself will pour courage into your soul.

So, don’t mistake waiting for wasting. Every minute you spend trusting God’s timing is another moment He’s building your faith muscles and preparing your breakthrough. Stay strong. Stay encouraged. Wait on the Lord—and you’ll see He was worth the wait.
