Chiiiile… let’s talk about it. Waiting on God can make prayer feel heavy sometimes. You pray and pray, but it feels like the words are bouncing off the ceiling. You pour your heart out, and the situation still hasn’t changed. And after a while, you start asking yourself, “God, are You even hearing me?” Sis, let me tell you — He hears you. He sees you. And just because you don’t see movement doesn’t mean He isn’t working behind the scenes.
Here’s the truth: prayer in the waiting isn’t just about asking — it’s about aligning. It’s not only about telling God what you want, but about letting Him shape your heart while you wait. Sometimes the silence you feel is actually God giving you space to grow in trust, to learn patience, and to see that His will is bigger than your wish list. He’s not ignoring you — He’s preparing you.
But let’s keep it real — prayer in the waiting can feel like spiritual warfare. Doubt creeps in. Frustration bubbles up. You start comparing your life to others and wondering why their prayers seem answered faster. That’s when you’ve got to pray anyway. Prayer in waiting isn’t about fancy words or long speeches; it’s about consistency. It’s about showing up daily and saying, “Lord, I still trust You. Even if I don’t see it yet, I know You’re still faithful.”
So today, I want you to shift how you see prayer. Stop thinking of it as a transaction and start seeing it as a conversation. God is not a vending machine for your requests; He’s a Father shaping your character, your faith, and your future. Praying while you wait doesn’t just change your situation — it changes you.

– Coach G 💛
