WAITING ON GOD answers the question, “Why doesn’t God seem to answer my prayers?” Charles Stanley admits that it is a challenge to wait on God. “It’s the ability to keep hoping when the numbers of life bombard us.” Dr Stanley points out that we sometimes have to wait. “Waiting is sometimes necessary for you and me as well. Learning to be directed by God’s timing and wisdom not our agenda is one of the most important lessons we ever learn as believers.”

This book offers hope for the believer facing dark times. Dr Stanley reminds the reader that “The father has an awesome plan for you–purposes that are fantastic, perfectly suited for you–and that will give ultimate meaning to your life.” When we find ourselves in a tough situation, Dr. Stanley suggests that first of all, we need to keep a steady focus: “There is absolutely nothing more important than keeping your focus on God rather than dwelling on your circumstances.”

As an example of how to wait on God, The author gives a touching example of his granddad, whose plans seemed to be amiss. Grandad kept praying, “Lord, you called me to preach and know how much money I need for a tent. This is the best I can do, but I know you can help me. Father, please show me what to do.” Later, the granddad would receive an a surprising gift of 300 one-dollar bills exactly what he needed for his ministry.

Dr Stanley points out that one of the most frequent questions he receives is, “How do I know what the Lord wants me to do with my life?” He lists 4 ways:

(1) The Bible is the first way: “The main way He reveals His purposes for you is always through scripture.”

(2) Secondly, we have to seek the Lord’s will through prayer.

(3) Thirdly, God uses circumstances to help us discern His will.

A special thank you to Howard Books and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Pastor and bestselling author, Dr. Charles F. Stanley delivers a powerful book of faith, hope, and perseverance, with Waiting on God: Strength for Today and Hope for Tomorrow.

As a former pastor of mine at First Baptist Church – Atlanta, GA for years, as well as his outreach ministry—In Touch, Dr. Stanley is highly respected and have always enjoyed his heart felt messages, strong leadership, and numerous Christian books over the years, as well as his strong faith and wise counsel.

In his latest book, WAITING ON GOD, Stanley dives into every believer’s continuous question of why God does not seem to hear prayers. When the “nevers” of life are discouraging, this is the book for you. Dr. Stanley reiterates to anyone facing problems and darkness, that hope, even though it is not always on our terms or time, He is listening with a bigger and better plan in mind.

There is meaning and hope in these times of waiting on Him to respond. He demonstrates through the pages of the book, that the only “never” you should focus on is that God will never let you down (Deut. 31:6,8). Our heavenly Father is working in the unseen on our behalf and we are not just waiting around for nothing.

No one likes delays. We lack control over our circumstances. None of us are alone, as we all face a common faith-building challenge of Christian life, and trusted pastor Dr. Stanley offers us guidance to endure victoriously. God has his own very specific schedule—vastly different than what we expect.

He reminds us through His message and scriptures, God has a purpose and plan and sometimes we need to wait and be patient in order to fulfill His ultimate plan.
