I will climb up to my watchtower and stand at my guard post. There I will wait to see what The Lord says and how He will answer my complaint.

Habakuk 2:1 NLT Bible

Waiting is difficult for most people. We dislike waiting for appointments, want immediate answers to problems and questions and grow impatient and irritable when things seem to be taking a long time. It's the same in our prayer life. We bring our situations and needs to God and expect the answer immediately. When this does not happen, we don't know what to do as we wait. We must recognize that He will answer us, but it will be in His time. We need to position ourselves, relinquish control of the problem and wait expectantly to hear from Him. 

As we wait, we cannot allow ourselves to be distracted by voices around us that may be trying to present solutions that are not from God. We need to remain in an attitude of prayer, centred on God and filled with hope and expectation. Sometimes God answers us audibly, sometimes through the Holy Spirit, sometimes through His Word and often through the right people showing up at just the right time with the solution to our problems. However, the answer comes, it's all orchestrated by our loving Father. We cannot give up. We have to persist in prayer and then watch and wait. God will answer and He will never be late. 

Thank you, Lord, for answered prayer! I surrender my cares and concerns to You and I wait silently and patiently in hope and expectation for Your answer. Lord, I know that You want only the best for me, and I thank You for caring for me. I love you, Jesus. Amen!

Be Blessed!
