[The Glory Unveiled]
“This means that, contrary to man’s perspective, the Lord is not late with his promise to return, as some measure lateness. But rather, his “delay” simply reveals his loving patience toward you, because he does not want any to perish but all to come to repentance.” [ 2 Peter 3:9 TPT ]
Many people in the world have made it a habit to ridicule believers anytime they speak about the return of the Lord Jesus Christ. To them, it is a joke. Some say if Jesus was going to come He should have come all these years. Others go to the extent of saying even if Jesus was walking to earth, she should have gotten here by now; these are the very people who are not even ready for the Lord’s coming. Unknown to them, the delay of the Lord is actually the exercising of God’s patience. If we look carefully into it, we will understand that the delay of the Lord is an expression of his loving patience towards us. So, contrary to the world’s perspective, the Lord is not late or delaying but rather, He does not want anyone to be lost to sin but that we all may come to repentance while He waits. What a manner of love. God loves us so much He does not want any of us to perish. Whenever God makes any promises, He fulfills them. In the time of Noah, it took so long for the flood to come that many people began to think that Noah was going crazy. But because God does not lie nor is He late with His promises. He was giving the people that much time so that they could repent, but they didn’t listen nor receive God’s invitation. Throughout Bible history and records, God never sends judgement upon any people except He first gives them ample time to repent. So, the more Jesus waits, the more He is exerting patience for those left who have not had the opportunity yet. May we take advantage of the patience of God and come to true repentance.
