When God's promises seem impossible and His timing doesn't match yours, it can feel like your prayers are hitting a wall.

In this episode, Rachel explores the 25-year journey of Abraham and Sarah as they waited for God's seemingly impossible promise to unfold. You'll discover how to pray with faith when delays stretch into years and hope feels deferred.

What You'll Learn:

How to pray honestly about your frustrations without losing faith, like Abraham did
Why God's delays are not God's denials—and what He accomplishes during the waiting
How to respond when God's promises seem as impossible as a 90-year-old having a baby
Practical ways to trust God's perfect timing even when it doesn't match your timeline

Drawing from her book club discussion and a powerful testimony of healing, Rachel shares how God still answers impossible prayers today. Whether you're waiting for healing, provision, restoration, or breakthrough, this episode offers hope that nothing is too hard for the Lord.

Perfect for anyone who feels discouraged by delayed answers to prayer and ready to trust God's timing over their own expectations.
