Hi Nick,

Pardon my ignorance, what is a ‘holy hour’? Is that a term from the Catholic tradition?

I once waited on the Lord for over 10 months for the direction on an important decision. It was not an easy experience, but the outcome was well worth it. God deals with each of us differently and with each circumstance as is required so the amount of time spent waiting is not the important issue. What does matter is whether we have a heart that is willing to hear the Lord’s will and obey regardless of what it may cost us.

Hebrews 10:5–10 Therefore, when He comes into the world, He says, “Sacrifice and offering You have not desired, But a body You have prepared for Me; In whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You have taken no pleasure. “Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come In the scroll of the book it is written of Me To do Your will, O God.’” After saying above, “Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You have not desired, nor have You taken pleasure in them” which are offered according to the Law, then He said, “Behold, I have come to do Your will.” He takes away the first in order to establish the second. By this will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
