Waiting expectantly is looking forward to that moment of fulfillment. It’s spending that time getting ready, doing everything we can to be prepared for when the time comes.

Sometimes the thing hasn’t come yet, because you’re not ready. We can use our seasons of waiting to prepare as best as we can for what’s coming.
Growing is also part of preparing. But instead of just preparing the things around you, this is about preparing yourself. Learn and grow as much as you can, so you’re ready for when the promise comes.God chooses the right time, not us, and He has His own criteria for that. So, whatever you’re waiting for, you can trust God that the right time hasn’t come yet.We need to wait expectantly.
The reason God makes us wait, is so that He can wait with us. He is helping us prepare and grow. He is speaking encouragement to us. And He is just as excited (probably more so) when His words are finally fulfilled! When we draw close to God in the seasons of waiting, it doesn’t matter how long we have to wait. If we grow in our relationship with God, the wait is worth it.
