Faith for Everyday
Faith for Everyday is a daily podcast dedicated to guiding youth through modern challenges with timeless Biblical wisdom. Each approximately 10-minute episode offers scriptural insights and practical encouragement to strengthen faith in everyday life. New episodes are released daily.
Spending time in God’s Word is essential for spiritual growth, yet many people struggle with where to start. Some feel intimidated by the Bible’s depth, while others become discouraged or overwhelmed by life’s challenges. If you’ve ever felt that way, this devotional is for you.
"Faith for Every Day" is designed as a simple yet powerful guide to help you engage with Scripture daily. You don’t have to start on January 1st—this podcast is meant to be picked up at any time of the year. Each daily devotion stands on its own, addressing real-life struggles while pointing you back to God’s truth.
Throughout this journey, we will explore topics such as anxiety, depression, rejection, and uncertainty—struggles that are all too common today. But you’re not alone. The Bible is filled with stories of people who faced similar challenges and found strength in God. By looking at their experiences, we can find encouragement, hope, and guidance for our own lives.
Whether you’re a new believer seeking direction or a seasoned Christian looking for fresh inspiration, this podcast will meet you where you are. My prayer is that as you go through these devotionals, you will be encouraged to dig deeper into God’s Word, grow in faith, and draw closer to Him daily.
Let’s embark on this journey together—one day at a time, one step closer to God.

The Gift Hidden In Delay
When the world runs on speed, how do we find peace in God’s slower, wiser timing? We open Psalm 27:14 and sit with its simple command and fierce promise: wait on the Lord, take courage, and your heart will be strengthened. This devotional walks through the honest struggle of delay—how impatience tempts us to force outcomes—and offers a clear path to wait with trust rather than tension, courage rather than anxiety.
We talk about the difference between standing still and staying faithful. Waiting, as Scripture frames it, is not inactivity; it’s focused dependence. You’ll hear practical wisdom for resisting shortcuts, letting God set the pace, and recognizing the quiet ways He builds endurance and clarity in hidden seasons. We unpack why God works in seasons, not seconds, and how the “second waiting” after initial enthusiasm fades becomes the place where deep growth happens and faith matures beyond outcomes.
If you’re praying for a breakthrough, wrestling with a slow answer, or wondering whether delay means denial, this reflection will re-anchor your hope. Expect encouragement to keep sowing in faith, to see preparation where you once saw punishment, and to lean into the promise that God Himself strengthens your heart as you wait. Listen for a calm, steady reminder that His timing is perfect even when it feels slow—and leave with a simple refrain you can carry through the week: wait on the Lord. If this spoke to you, subscribe, share it with a friend who’s in a waiting season, and leave a review to help others find these daily devotions.
Learning patience in God's timing. Psalms twenty-seven verse fourteen. Wait on the Lord, be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart. Wait, I say on the Lord. Psalms twenty-seven verse fourteen. Hello and welcome to day two hundred and ninety of Faith for Everyday. Today's devotional touches a topic that every Christian will face, often more than once, and that is waiting on God. Psalms 27 verse 14 says, Wait on the Lord, be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart. Wait, I say, on the Lord. It is a short verse, but it says so much more. Let us be honest. Waiting is hard. We live in a world of fast food, instant messaging, and seven-day shipping. We want answers now, breakthroughs now, healing now. But God's timing is not like ours. He does not rush. And he is never late. He works in seasons, not seconds. This verse opens with wait on the Lord. That means do not try to outrun him. Do not try to create your own shortcut. Wait on him. Not just with your body, but with your heart. Sometimes we say we are waiting, but deep down we are frustrated, bitter, or even afraid. True waiting involves trust. It is a quiet confidence that says, God, I do not see it yet, but I believe you are working behind the scenes. When David writes, Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart. Now that is a powerful truth. While you are waiting, God is not punishing you, he is strengthening you, he is building courage, he is developing your faith muscles, he is teaching you to rely on him, not the outcome, not the clock. You may not see the answers yet, but God is strengthening your heart for what is coming. And then, almost like a father repeating himself for emphasis, David says again, Wait, I say, on the Lord. Why repeat it? Because he knew our hearts are prone to grow anxious. He knew we would need the extra reminder, and sometimes it is in the second waiting that the greatest growth happened. Are you in a season where it feels like nothing is moving? Are you praying and waiting, sowing and hoping? Then hear this today. Waiting is not wasted time. It is a sacred time. Time where God prepares you for what He has prepared for you. Time where trust is refined, time where strength is built. Do not give up in the waiting room of faith. God's delay is not his denial. Thank you very much for joining me for day 290 of faith for every day. Let this verse be your anchor. Wait on the Lord, be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart. And remember, his timing is perfect, even when it feels slow. I'll see you again tomorrow as we continue this journey together. Same time, same place. Thank you very much for listening.
