About this listen
This book helps clarify why the answers to our prayers may be delayed and gives practical advice for walking in faith and hope until God's release comes.
If we are to mature into greater dimensions of kingdom fruitfulness, then we must commit ourselves to understanding how God uses delay to refine his chosen ones. Intensely passionate and practical, this book is written from the crucible of the author's own personal crisis of delayed answers.
This is not a book of platitudes, but of powerful insights that have come through the fire. May your heart be enlarged and your faith expanded as you consider the great blessings extended to those who wait on God alone.

Top of his writings
I've been a fan of Sorge's since "Secrets of the Secret Place." But this one surprised me on how practical and thorough it was for me. Because of Bob's infirmity, I believe he has tremendous insights that most of us simply could not see. I am grateful that he took the time to write out all the gemstones the Word has about this subject. This writing is at the top of the heap- very grateful to have listened.
