HOSEA, 12:6

In the midst of a long, painful season of waiting, I wrote a song called “While I Wait.” This five-part devotional series explores the root of the song. I hope these devotionals remind you that while the wait may be long, you are never alone in the middle of it. God is always with us in the wait, and I pray you will feel Him draw near to you over these next five days.  Waiting with you, Lincoln Brewster

There are many possible reasons why answers to our prayers are delayed. Especially when a matter is of great urgency, it feels unbearable when the answer tarries. How can we position ourselves at such times? How do we keep the right perspective? This reading plan will help keep your focus in the right place while waiting for a spiritual breakthrough or answer to prayer.

God does not merely choose to act justly – He is justice. His decisions are not swayed by external pressures or personal biases (Which Sign Will You Choose? – Dwayne Jeffries). As you follow this plan, be encouraged and empowered to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly every day (Micah 6:8), just as Jesus did.

Many believers long for deeper intimacy with God, but their quiet times feel more dutiful than delightful. This 9-day devotional series explores the “one thing” Jesus said is truly necessary—being with him. Through stories of familiar biblical characters, you’ll learn about holy leisure, the unhurried, grace-filled rhythm of resting in God’s presence and savoring his Word. This is the one thing we need most, and it is the better portion.
