Delay Is Not Denial

The vision is for an appointed time. Though it delays, wait for it: delay is not denial.

Delay Is Not Denial
“For the vision is yet for the appointed time; It hurries toward the goal and it will not fail. Though it delays, wait for it; For it will certainly come, it will not delay long.” Habakkuk 2:3 (NASB)

God is a God that cannot lie. He is true to His Word, and He is bound by His promises.

No matter what you may see around you right now, I want to remind you that God is faithful to carry out His plans and purposes. What you need to remember, however, is that this doesn’t happen at the time you believe is best. He sees to it that His Word is fulfilled at His appointed time.

I don’t know what you’re going through today — what disappointments you’ve had due to delays and unfulfilled dreams — but I want to remind you that delay is not denial.

God has a set a time to fulfil His specific plans through the lives of you and I, and His promises toward you are never changing.
I want to prophesy the Word of the Lord to you today. Do not be discouraged. Do not allow unbelief to creep in. His plans will certainly come to pass! They will not be aborted, and they will not delay long!

May the spirit of faith be revived within you, even right now as you read this, and may you hold onto the promise with unwavering tenacity.

Prophetic Declaration

The promise of God has not been denied, but is coming into fulfilment in the perfect time! I speak to my soul and command all discouragement to leave. I speak revival to my faith, and I hold fast to the vision set before me, in the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
