Why Is God Taking So Long? The Unseen Battle Behind Your Unanswered Prayers

Ever feel like God is silent when you pray? In Daniel chapter ten, we find out your prayer is heard in heaven the very moment you pray it, even when the answer takes weeks, months, or years to arrive. Daniel prayed for 21 days before an angel finally showed up with a message: he had been on his way the entire time, but he was delayed by a demonic force called the prince of Persia, until the archangel Michael broke through to help him. It is a strange, eye opening picture of what is really happening behind your circumstances. There is an unseen battlefield playing out in cities, in nations, in your own life, and God is sovereign over every bit of it. In this teaching from Daily Hope, Pastor John S. Dickerson walks through Daniel 10 to show why we do not need to obsess over angels and demons or live in fear of them, but we should be aware that God is fighting for us even when the answer feels delayed. He could send ten thousand angels in an instant. Instead He lets the story play out so that in the end we see how good, how powerful, and how trustworthy He really is. If you are in a season of waiting on God right now, you are not forgotten. Keep praying. Keep trusting. Let us know in the comments what you are believing God for today.
