www.saddleback.com/daringfaith – No one ever said that waiting is easy. It takes patience, self-restraint, determination, and the hope that something good is yet to come. From that first gift under the Christmas tree to the family vacation marked on the calendar, we all face the challenge of waiting for that "next big thing" to be revealed. In an age of smart phones, quick fixes, and instant communication, waiting has become even more challenging. But waiting is an important part of life. You may be waiting on God to heal your disease, bring you employment, ease your burden, or answer your prayer. Sometimes though, God has to work on us before he works on our problems. In this sermon, Pastor Rick Warren details what do when when you're waiting on God, and how to be patient in the process.

Father, I pray for all of those who watch this sermon waiting for something waiting for You to move. I pray that they(as well as myself) would realize that You are already moving and that they would WAIT WELL and not passively. I pray that you would show them the things that you want to teach them and continue to develop, transform, and renew their lives and their character. I thank you for Pastor Warren and everything that You are doing and will continue to do through him. I’m Jesus Ñame. Amen

This is one of the simplest, but most powerful sermons. For all who are saying that Rick Warren misinterprets scripture, just take it as though he speaks in parables. With all his teachings, he gets to the point instead of heaping useless doctrine upon useless doctrine.

I have been waiting for almost 3 years... God told me to move at a time when I have no job, money, friends or family. May 31 I have to be out of my apartment. I've been waiting... Now I'm panicking. Thoughts of ending my life continue to attack me. I can't live on the streets ever again. Please pray for me & help me to wait as long as God takes.

For all who are critical of Rick W sorry to disappoint u but this is one of most humble pastor ihave seen and. heard , not that a person s way of dressing makes. him humble but just by the way he dresses lol says alot. Many pastors would be all dressed up in expensive suit and preach about how perfect they are lol but pastor its about how can i help the ones who ate hearing what i am preaching awesome Glory to God

I just found this pastor yesterday. I was praying for a message on my way to work and found the doing a Reset series. I listenes to parts I and II. I started his sermon on Co tentment. 😮 Its still so accurate and such a blessed message even from 9 years ago that it was posted. We're created in God's image. We dont need Earthly things to be truly happy

3 years after this sermon had been posted, God used my current situation to have me seek a video on the topic related to my current situation. God knew what He was doing & I can say God used Rick Warren to teach this topic & break it down in a way I can understand. God is a good God & an on-time God. This present moment & video is God's comfirmation that He's with me all the way. THANK YOU HEAVENLY FATHER!!!

I love how you explain God's words. I understand so clearly this why I go the church to hear a word from God. Please don't change your method of teaching it helped me out so much.

Do something while you're waiting. God is preparing blessings in his own time.

Thank you so much for this message pastor Rick I've been waiting on God for a job for almost 5 months now. It has been such a long journey. I wanted to give up today. This morning I couldnt even pray any more because I was so discouraged. I stumbled upon this message and it has encouraged me so much.

Man!!! Thank you Psalm 37 Isaiah 64 Both talk about waiting on God Blessed is he who wait on The Lord! Waiting doesn’t feel good But it is so good for us because it teaches patience endurance perseverance and most importantly trust in God that he got our backs no matter what the outcome is. It even scares me to even say those words alone.

Warren is a solid Bible teacher, obviously deeply mature in the things of God.

Over the years I learned...if what ever is delayed...it was for my own good. "Why was I late?" Bc God didn't want me at that intersection where a stop sign was...that someone ran. I am grateful to God for not answering a lot of my prayers. Looking back...I am glad God did not answer my prayers. Like the motor cycle driver that rode my behind. Then, I saw the tractor. So I blocked him from passing me. That guy followed me to my work place. I thought...God! What ever. I park where there is a camera. Motor Cycle guy approached me. What I did not expect was a "Thank You". I didn't see the tractor...
