In our society today, it's a common thing for us to say "Delay is not denial though in legal world there's a legal maxim which says: "Justice delayed is justice denied"

Saying "justice delayed is justice denied means that if legal redress to an injured party is available, but is not coming forth in a timely or urgent fashion, it is basically the same as it not having any remedy at all.

Has God given you any promise of a bright future or hope which is yet to be fulfilled or accomplished? 

Or maybe you have received a specific answers to a request while you were praying.

Even at that nothing happened. In fact, instead of seeing turn around, the circumstances turned out for the worse. 

Did you misinterpret God’s agenda for you life?Have you accumulated them all in your head? Where are all the promised blessings of God for your life?

Remember that God gave Joseph, the son of Jacob in the Bible, a promise that one day he would reign.

But then, everything went the other way for him many years after the promise. His brothers, sold him to the Egyptians because they hated him.

He served as a slave in Potiphar’s house, and was wrongly accused of going in with his master’s wife, which made them throw him into the prison where he was forgotten.

Instead of using the delayed promise as an excuse to murmur against God, Joseph decided to keep himself for the journey ahead asking God to give him courage and strength.

He dropped all expectations of how and when God would fulfill his promise.

Trust God even when life doesn’t seem as if it makes any sense.

There has to be a purpose for whatever it is you are going through. God is probably trying to correct the journey of your life.

It could be that he is using these things you are going through to teach you to lean more on him, to trust his timing, and to strengthen your faith in Him.

It is possible that you are going through all of this mess in your life because going through it will help you lead someone else through a similar circumstance later on.

Just like Joseph, we also may not see the purpose or reason why we are struggling until much later. But also like him, we should remain faithful, stand steadfast and trust God that He knows what is happening to us.

God may be silent but that does not mean He has taken a walk out of your life.

Just like a building which is erected behind a wall, we can’t always see it as it progresses.

But that does not mean there is nothing going on. God has good plans for us and His plans is being carried out and any circumstances you encounter is needed to prepare you for those plans He has for you.

Delay is not Denial, but we can say it is a time whereby you groom yourself for the promise of God for your life.

It is very hard when we are not seeing God in action in our lives. But that does not mean that he isn’t working or acting on our behalf.

I am sure there may have been times while Joseph was in prison that he would have quietly called out to God, asking for when he will be saved from his ordeals. It’s okay if we also do the same but we shouldn't overdo it.

Many of us have planned either by writing or in your heart when the will of God will manifest in our lives.

Delay tactics are so deceiving and are some of the enemies work because the enemy seeks to trick us up by filling our minds with doubt.

You might be in a great debt and have no way out of it, that there's delay in repaying the debt doesn't mean you've been denied and you won't make the payment. But NO, you will.

You might be heal, and it might be so difficult to get your healing, you might feel God has forgotten you and you are delayed. But NO, the delay is not denial. You will get well.

You might have a business that is not going well and you feel the delay is annoying because you are not making sales. NO, the delay is for a reason.

The enemy will want you to be of the mindset that the Lord is not concerned about your needs or that He isn’t willing to fulfill all the promises that He made to each and everyone of us in God's word.

He is actually working for us in the background.

He worked for me. I got my desired state for my National Youth Service Corps, and would be passing out in few weeks to come.

"Delay is not necessarily denial!!!🤣🤣🤣"

According to the lead image, expect delays, but it doesn't connote denial.

You are right my dear friend, delay isn't denial. Most times God wants us to experience what it feels like not having something, so when we final get it, we will appreciate it.
