1ms Delay function or Similar help

Hello,

I was wondering if someone could help me create or find a delay function.

I was thinking a 1ms delay function could work.

I would like to have this, so that I can have some timed prompts on an LCD that I have working.

Below is a fraction of my main.c 

I hope you guys can help me.

  main(){
  LcdClrDisp();
  LcdMoveCursor(1,4);
  LcdDispStrg("It is");
//-->Delay Function Here
  LcdClrDisp();
  LcdMoveCursor(2,4);
  LcdDispStrg("Working :)");
//-->Delay Function Here
    }

Thanks
