Have you ever felt abandoned by God? Those moments when your prayers seem to vanish into silence, when the heaviness of waiting crushes your spirit, and when that small voice whispers, "Has God forgotten me?" This powerful message tackles the heart-wrenching question we've all asked at some point: "What's taking you so long, God?"

Through the creation story in Genesis, we discover a profound truth about divine timing. God could have created everything in a single day—yet He deliberately spread His work across six days. At each stage, He declared His work "good," but it wasn't until completion that He pronounced it "very good." This distinction holds the key to understanding why God sometimes makes us wait.

The sermon weaves together compelling biblical narratives of those who endured seemingly endless waiting periods. Joseph languished in prison before his miraculous elevation to the palace. Lazarus had to die and be buried before Jesus arrived—not because Jesus was indifferent, but because resurrection would prove far more glorious than mere healing. These weren't stories of divine neglect but of divine preparation for something extraordinary.

If you're standing at the edge of hopelessness today, wondering if God has abandoned you to your prison, this message carries a lifeline of hope. God could have answered your prayer yesterday, and it would have been good—but He's waiting to make it very good. Your current confinement might be the necessary preparation for your coming promotion.

When the darkness feels overwhelming and God seems distant, remember the whispered truth that sustained the preacher during his own valley: "How do you think you got this far?" Even when we can't feel His presence, He's been carrying us all along.

Ready to transform your perspective on divine delays? Listen now and discover why God's "not yet" might be the most loving answer to your prayers. Your breakthrough isn't just coming—it's being perfected.
