A Drought of Unanswered Prayer

Have you ever felt like you are in a 3-year drought? Like your prayers are not being answered? It’s been said, when there is no “yes” or “no,” there is a “wait.” Are you finding it hard to wait? You’re not alone. Waiting is difficult. However, waiting builds perseverance, and perseverance builds character, and character builds hope.

When Elijah was told by God that there would be a 3-year drought in the land, he responded with trust. He didn’t freak out, try to fix it, or figure things out — He trusted the promise of God. Was it hard? Yes! But during those 3 years of drought, God was working miracles for and through Elijah.

If you have found yourself in a drought of unanswered prayer, do what Elijah did and choose to trust God through it — and HE WILL work miracles on your behalf! ( 1 Kings 17-18).
