In Joshua 5, we find Israel standing on the edge of a promise, yet before they move forward, God calls them to pause. Sometimes, God’s timing doesn’t look like our timing, and the waiting can leave us wondering what He’s doing. But even when it feels like nothing is happening, God is still at work. In this message, When the Delay Is Design, we’ll discover how God uses seasons of waiting to prepare us for what’s next, deepen our trust in Him, and remind us that His promises are always worth waiting for.\n\nIf you’re in a season where progress feels slow and the next step isn’t clear, be encouraged: God may be doing something in the delay that you can’t yet see. At Epikos, we believe following Jesus means learning to trust Him in every season, even when His plans don’t unfold the way we expected. Join us as we explore Joshua 5 and discover how to find purpose in the pause, trust God’s process, and move forward in His timing. The delay may not mean you’re being denied. It may be part of the design.\""}
