God many times waits until the last moment

Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Spanish)

SUMMARY: God often waits until the last moment to send blessings because He has a greater purpose in our trials. He wants to teach us things, grow us spiritually, and bless those around us with our example of faith and persistence. It's important to ask God what He is trying to teach us and how we can get the most out of the situation. We need to navigate the stormy waters of life with faith and dependence on Him.

Many times God waits until the moment of last strength to send the blessing. And one wonders why does God do that? This woman for example has been with this exhausting, shameful disease for twelve years. You have done everything you can to get out of your situation. Not only has it not gone well, but it has done worse; he has spent all his money, he lives in solitude. And only now is it at that moment that he dares to go to the feet of Jesus.

The Bible is full of narratives where people reach the last minute of their situation and have nothing left to do, and simply have to desperately turn to the Lord. I think for example of the Hebrews in Egypt, when they are leaving Egypt and are facing the Red Sea, there is a sea wall that is in front of them, behind them comes the army of Pharaoh ready to destroy them and Moses desperately cries out to the Lord , and God tells him: hit the sea and the sea will open up, and go dry, right?
