You Can’t Microwave a Miracle

Galatians 6:9 (NKJV) “And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”

Let’s be honest, we love quick results.

We’ve got drive-thru lanes for burgers, 2-day shipping for socks, and microwave popcorn that is ready in 2 minutes. We are a “right now” generation trying to serve a “Right on Time” God.

But here’s the problem: miracles don’t come with a 30-second timer.

You can’t throw your prayer life in a spiritual microwave and expect a blessing to be done before the commercial break ends. God doesn’t operate on our schedule… He operates on His sovereignty.

Some of us are frustrated because we think God’s forgotten about us. We’ve been doing the right things, praying, serving, staying faithful, but we’re not seeing the breakthrough yet.

Let me remind you: the delay is not a denial.

He’s not ignoring you… He’s preparing you…

Think about it:
Joseph waited over 13 years for his dream to come to pass.
David was anointed king as a teenager but didn’t take the throne until years later.
Even Jesus waited 30 years before performing His first miracle.

If they had to wait, we can too.

But while you wait, don’t pout… Praise.
Don’t lose heart… lean in.

Your Harvest is on the way, but you’ve got to stay in the field long enough to see it grow.

You don’t dig up the seed just because it didn’t sprout by tomorrow… Trust the process!

And when you start to get frustrated, just picture God leaning over the edge of heaven with a grin, saying,
“My Child, I’m not finished yet… I’m just getting started… You’ve got NO idea what’s coming”.

So don’t quit.
Don’t give up.
Don’t throw away your confidence.

You can’t microwave a miracle, but if you’ll wait on the Lord, He will renew your strength (Isaiah 40:31).

Let today be a reminder: God is still working behind the scenes! Even when the screen looks silent.

Blessings!
