  1. Hold, Please!John 11:1-6 Delays of Love Help in God’s Time No Delays

  2. Hold, Please!John 11:1-6 Delays of Love • Jesus’ delays are always delays of love • Jesus delayed because He loved them • They are never delays of indifference • Luke 18:1-8 • Indifference is not a characteristic of God • They are never a product of preoccupation • 1 Kings 18 • God is never too preoccupied to be there for you

  3. Hold, Please!John 11:1-6 Delays of Love • Jesus’ delays are always purposeful • Jesus’ love always has a purpose • We are right to seek purpose in God’s delays • However, we might not always find it • God’s delays mold our wills to His perfect will • God’s delays are used to strengthen our faith • God sometimes delays to bring honor to His name • Learn to interpret circumstances by the love of Jesus and not Jesus’ love by our circumstances!

  4. Hold, Please!John 11:1-6 Help in God’s Time • Jesus’ delayed help always comes at the right time! • “Heaven’s clock is different from ours” • God works in a time frame called eternity! • Those few days were an eternity to the sisters • But, how did they feel after Lazarus was raised? • Acts 12 • Isaiah 36,37 • God never comes too early or too late!

  5. Hold, Please!John 11:1-6 No Delays • The best help is never delayed • The principles of delay, at best, deal with only half of our prayers • Things like guidance, healing, and changing of circumstances • But there is no delay in prayers having to do with spiritual help, growth, salvation, and blessing • Isaiah 65:24 • Matthew 14:30-32

  6. Hold, Please!John 11:1-6 Application • If God delays, it is because He has purpose in the delay! • Seek that purpose • But trust, even when you cannot find it • When we need help immediately, we get it! • When God helps, we always find what we need most!
