Bible Verses About Divine Speed
There are seasons when God accelerates his purposes, doing quickly what would ordinarily take long. Scripture declares: "And the hand of the Lord was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel." (1 Kings 18:46). The Word affirms: "A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Lord will hasten it in his time." (Isaiah 60:22). As it is written: "For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry." (Habakkuk 2:3). Wait on the Lord with patience, and trust him to "hasten it in his time."
