Earnest Prayer

Why does God often delay in answering prayers? Many times, God's delay in responding to our prayers serves as a form of divine protection from ourselves. This delay teaches us to worship Him as the giver, rather than fixate on the gifts He bestows. God removes impurities out of our lives through making us wait through prayer. Years of earnestly waiting for God’s hand to move not only strengthens our faith in Him but also displays His immense power and sovereignty over every aspect of life and every circumstance.
