Our Daily Manna Devotional 17th May 2018
TOPIC: LORD, WHY ARE YOU SLOW?
Basic Scripture: Luke 1: 45 -66
Welcome to today’s devotional encounter with He who dwells in THE LIGHT that no man can approach! He is the SUN of righteousness and yet He is the CONSUMING FIRE! So, He is the SUN and FIRE! You can’t miss this “I COMPARED THE SNAIL…” (ODM 16 May 2018)

Awesome God but mysterious God! He is mysterious in His ways because I ask: Why did He allow Saul (Paul) to kill APOSTLE Stephen, a holy man of God, before he, Paul ,was arrested by God? Could Stephen have lived longer if GOD HAD ACTED FASTER AND EARLIER THAN HE DID?
However, no matter how slow God seems concerning you or the wicked, it would be unloving and unreasonable for God to allow wrongdoing and evil to continue forever! No loving father would endlessly tolerate evil from one of His
children who continues deliberately to injure other family members.
God’s patience in the face of sin therefore, will always be balanced by other qualities such as love, wisdom and justice (Ex. 34: 6, 7). If you are disturbed about why God delayed or allowed the wicked to continue for a while, note this about your God: Once the purpose behind His longsuffering is complete, His tolerance of evil will cease-(Roman 9:22).

This kis very clear from Acts 14: 16 & Acts 17: 30-31. God will not acquit the wicked or allow the present trials you are experiencing to be forever (Psalm 56: 7-9). So refuse to envy those you think are not as prayerful as you are but are more prosperous. As the night gives way to the morning, so will your breakthrough delay expire this year! God is not slow or sluggish! He is planning for you and your family.
It took Abraham 25 years for him to wait for Isaac. Don’t forget the birth of the special children: John the Baptist (Verses 63-65 of today’s scripture), Prophet Samuel, etc, of a period of a long delay. The delayed wine in the wedding feast (John 2) was the best wine! Your present delay is not a denial. It will be a demotion/shame for your enemies at last.
This generation will marvel at your testimony. Open your mouth and declare seven times now: “MY LIFE IS A MIRACLE ABOUT TO HAPPEN. I refuse to quit now because I know that in His silence/delay, my God Jehovah has a plan. AMEN. ” Shalom! Our Daily Manna Devotional 17th May 2018
