Born out of her own journey through years of deep loss, public shame, financial hardships, and emotional valleys, Nkarabang shares how the Lord transformed her pain into purpose. The author says that in her lowest moments, God taught her that waiting is not a punishment, but rather a preparation, and that preparation requires a certain posture.
“My family and I walked through one of the most difficult, painful, and heartbreaking seasons of our lives. It was a season that stripped us to the core marked by deep loss, public shame, and moments of almost unbearable embarrassment. It felt like every pillar we had been standing on was crumbling.
We found ourselves in the middle of a storm we didn’t see coming, facing battles we never imagined we would fight,” elaborates Nkarabang. She posits that this is what motivated her to write her emotional read. In the thick darkness of that valley, when hope seemed distant and the questions far outnumbered the answers, God began to whisper to her spirit. In that place of brokenness, He started birthing something inside Nkarabang, something she didn’t even know was there.
“I wrote this book because I never wanted anyone else to walk through their own waiting season blindly, hopelessly, or defeated. Waiting can be one of the most spiritually dangerous places to be but it can also be one of the most powerful, if you know how to stand. I wanted to hand people the tools to wait well not passively, but with intentional faith, unshakable strength, and spiritual weapons in hand,” explains Nkarabang.
Nkarabang states that delay is not one’s denial. Your pain is not the end of your purpose. What feels like a setback is often the set-up for your next season. There is power in your posture even in the waiting, especially in the waiting.
“This book is not just pages and chapters. It is my heart laid bare. It is my testimony. It is my war cry. And it is my gift to every weary warrior, every silent sufferer, and every dreamer who refuses to let go of the promise God has spoken over their life. You will rise. You will recover. And when the waiting is over, you will step boldly into destiny,” said Nkarabang.
For many, waiting feels like a wilderness a place of uncertainty, silence, and sometimes pain. But what if your waiting season is actually God’s training ground for your destiny? With each chapter, she unpacks nine key spiritual postures prayer, fasting, the Word, worship, praise, faith, fellowship, serving, and standing on the prophetic word; each one a lifeline for enduring the delay without losing hope. Drawing on rich Biblical examples, personal testimonies, and practical steps, she reveals how the right posture can turn your waiting into a place of intimacy with God, inner growth, and supernatural alignment.
This book is more than encouragement; it’s a companion for the journey. Each chapter closes with powerful prayers, prophetic decrees, and journal prompts designed to help you process your own season with intentionality. Whether you are trusting God for healing, a breakthrough, restoration, or the fulfillment of a long-awaited promise, this book will give you the tools to stay rooted, expectant, and unshakable. Nkarabang’s message is clear: Waiting is not wasted when your posture is right. God is not just preparing your promise; He is preparing you. And when the appointed time comes, you’ll step into your destiny fully equipped, deeply anchored, and ready to steward what you’ve been believing in. “Through Your Posture in Waiting, I wanted to show you that when the enemy launches his fiercest attacks, you don’t have to shrink back or suffer silently. You can fight back. You can stand your ground. You can wage war in the spirit and come out victorious. Waiting doesn’t have to weaken you it can forge you into a weapon the enemy fears,” Nkarabang stipulated.
