In most cases, being inflexible, stubborn, or unmoving isn’t favorable.

So often it seems like if we just grip tighter or twist harder, we’ll have the opportunities we long for. We’ll find satisfaction. We’ll gain the missing ingredient and finally put together that idea we think is best for us.

But, if God’s the unmoving lid on a jar we’re fighting to get into, it’s probably not one we want to open.

God doesn’t budge, and that’s great news!

• God will not break his promises
• God’s Word will not pass away
• God’s kingdom is unshakable
• God’s foundation does not fall
• God’s love can’t be lost
• God’s plan is immovable
• God’s judgement is perfect
• God’s mind doesn’t shift
• God cannot be swayed

Instead of being in our way, God’s lack of movement is meant to guide our way.

Sometimes, certainly, what seems “stuck” in our lives is just a matter of God’s timing. Other times, it’s God’s protection or teaching. There are even instances when God doesn’t “fix it” and the impossibility of change becomes apparent- leaving us all the more awed when He makes it possible anyway.

So, if you’re feeling stuck, and it seems like your prayers aren’t moving God, remember:

God’s stubbornness is our stability.

“He will be the stability of your times, abundance of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge; the fear of the LORD is Zion’s treasure.” –Isaiah 33:6

Our Savior isn’t unmoving in pride, but perfection. He isn’t slow, but sovereign. His unwillingness to depart from the way (though his loved ones tried to sway Him) led to our salvation. His unshakeable quality is the reason that death is defeated.

It is to our benefit that God won’t budge.
