Thanks to Brad Feummeler for bringing our men a great message for last night's PowerBarn service at the Freedom House. He reminded us that waiting on God is never wasted time. Here are "The 5 P's" to help remember five ways God works while we wait:
1. Preparation — God prepares us and our circumstances for what lies ahead.
2. Provision — Waiting transforms us and teaches us to depend on Him.
3. Planning — God’s timing is not always our timing. David had to wait while Saul was king, trusting God’s plan rather than forcing his own.
4. Purification — As Psalm 40:1-3 reminds us, God uses difficult seasons to shape our hearts, remove our pride, and make us more like Him.
5. Proclaiming — In Acts 2:1-14, the disciples waited for God’s appointed time, and Peter boldly proclaimed the gospel when the Holy Spirit came.
The lesson? Just because we are waiting doesn’t mean God isn’t working. He is preparing us, teaching us, refining us, and getting us ready to be used for His glory. Don’t waste the waiting. Trust His timing and let Him do His work in you.
