Is It OK To Explore Other Options While Waiting On God? by jerrydelight(m): 7:34am On Jul 19, 2015
We have been hearing from time to time, that God is never late but always on time as well as God's time is the best but when or what exactly is God's time is a difficult question to answer.

The problem in waiting on God is that God does not usually give an estimated time of arrival but rather gives a guarantee that he will come or will perform what he has promised (Num.23:19, 2Pet.3:9, Rom.4:21).

Waiting is luxury that many especially Christian can't afford in this instant and time conscious world.


So is it advisable to explore other options while waiting on the Lord as Abraham did in Gen. 16:1-3?

waiting on God could be for many reasons such as waiting to conceive , waiting for job or promotion.

I know God doesn't fail on His promises once we have good relationship with Him.

We shouldn't forget that our God is jealous , He wouldn't share His glory with anyone or option.

Drifting away while waiting on Him shows our lack of faith in Him words and promises.

Although , most solution to most of our problems and challenges are imbedded in information around us but many of us failed to be well informed thus we don't take informed decision toward surmounting our live challenges.

Unless you want to die waiting it is mandatory to explore other options, Understand now? Then you can praised god for it as usual. Everything you have ever accomplished is either by your efforts or by the efforts of others, Wait on god and you will never get anything done.
