…You are a gracious and merciful God, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness – Jon. 4:2
What is the speed of God? Bible says God is Light, and we can assuredly say that He can travel at the speed of light. Bible also tells that God is the creator of everything (El Elohim) and supreme (El Shaddai), He can travel at an unimagined speed, and we cannot comprehend the speed of God.
While God is powerful, quick, and fast, as we cannot comprehend the divine speed, Bible also tells us that he is slow in a few things. He is slow to anger and wrath (Jon. 4:2) to show His grace, mercy, and lovingkindness; He is patient for second coming (2 Pet 3:8,9) so that He is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. This slowness is for a better cause. When things are delayed in your life, let us all realize that God is still working in your case for a better cause. As God's delays are not denials, let us continue to wait upon the Lord whether He works quickly or slowly, realizing that it is for our good!
