When God Hits Pause on Your Plans
Have you ever felt like you’re ready for your next chapter, but God’s holding the pen? You’ve prayed, prepared, and positioned yourself, but the doors won’t open — or worse, they close right in your face.
That’s one of the hardest parts of faith: waiting.
But what if God’s “not yet” is actually His protection?
What if He’s preparing something better than what you’re trying to rush into?
We don’t like delays because they make us feel powerless. But sometimes, delay is divine protection. When God pauses your plans, it’s never to punish — it’s to prepare your heart, your character, and your capacity.
Think of Joseph in the Bible — thrown into a pit, sold into slavery, forgotten in prison… yet every pause positioned him closer to his purpose. When the timing was finally right, the door opened and stayed open.
So if you’re in a waiting season right now, don’t lose hope. God isn’t ignoring you — He’s orchestrating something you can’t yet see.
In the meantime, keep showing up. Keep doing the next right thing. Keep trusting that even when it feels like nothing’s happening, something holy is.
Because when God moves, it’ll all make sense. 🌿
