Hi, I'm Robert Jeffress, and I'm glad to serve as your Bible teacher every day on this great radio station.

On today's edition of Pathway to Victory, waiting time doesn't have to be wasted time.

Even though you want to pull your hair out in frustration because you feel like God's clock is moving at a glacial pace,

God knows exactly where you are right now, and He knows exactly what He's doing.

Welcome to Pathway to Victory with author and pastor Dr. Robert Jeffress.

In a world of instant videos streaming and same-day shipping, the concept of waiting, well, it's become almost foreign.

Yet God often calls us to wait, not just for hours or days, but sometimes for months, years, and even decades.

Today on Pathway to Victory, Dr. Robert Jeffress teaches that God has both a plan for your life and a timeline in which He wants to play it out.

Now here's our Bible teacher to introduce today's message.

Dr. Jeffress?

Thanks, David, and welcome again to Pathway to Victory.

My life, Amy, might be the first one to tell you I'm not the most patient guy in the world.

Whether it's a traffic jam or a long line at the ticket counter, I grow more anxious with every wasted minute that passes by.

Well, in today's study, you'll hear a message that's equally convicting to this preacher.

It's based on our study of the prophet Elijah.

Together, we'll see that waiting time doesn't have to be wasted time.

I've titled this series Choosing the Extraordinary Life and help you dig deeper on your own.

I'd like to send you a hard-cover copy of my book Choosing the Extraordinary Life.

You don't have to be a superstar saint to break free from your daily grind and see God work in an extraordinary way in your life.

No matter what your age or stage of life, God is in the business of using ordinary people like you and me to do his extraordinary work.

In my book, I'll share the seven secrets for success and significance in life, including learning to wait on God, unleashing the power of prayer and finding your unique purpose in life.

And as an added bonus, we're including the Life Application Guide to help you get the most out of this teaching.
