God always acts at the right time, even when answers to our prayers seem delayed. Drawing on the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth in Luke 1, the author shows how God’s response often comes with a mission or new responsibility, as seen in the birth of John the Baptist. This reflection encourages believers to persevere in prayer, trust His perfect timing, and be ready for the assignments that may accompany His answers. Readers are invited to join in upcoming days of collective prayer and share their own requests.
