—   Jeremiah 29:11

The Sure Word for Today

Day  3: Confidence When Life Feels Delayed

Jeremiah 29:11 speaks of an expected end, not an immediate outcome. Delay does not cancel direction. Waiting seasons often test confidence because progress feels slow and answers seem distant. Yet God’s plan continues to move even when you feel stationary. Confidence grows when you understand that timing is part of the plan, not a mistake in it. What feels late to you is still aligned with purpose.

Abraham waited years for the promise of a son. Time passed, expectations stretched, and doubt tried to creep in. Still, God’s word did not expire. The delay refined Abraham’s trust and strengthened his reliance on God rather than circumstances. Waiting did not weaken the promise. It matured it. God was not absent in the waiting. He was preparing both the promise and the person who would carry it.

Today, resist the pressure to rush outcomes. Delay does not mean denial. God’s thoughts toward you remain peaceful, even when progress feels slow. Stay steady. Keep trusting. Confidence is built when you believe that what is unfolding slowly is still unfolding securely. Your expected end has not changed.

Connect: Your Challenge and Response

You may feel frustrated by slow progress or unanswered prayers. The right response is to trust that timing serves a purpose and that waiting does not weaken the outcome God has planned.

Extend: Faith in Action

Choose patience today by refusing to compare your pace with others. Focus on what you can do faithfully now, trusting that progress is happening even when it feels quiet.

Reflection And Application

Where do you feel delayed right now? How can you remain confident in God’s plan without rushing or forcing outcomes that are still forming?
