    Why God Allows Delay

    Uploaded by

    God sometimes allows delays for greater purposes that bring him glory. This is seen in Jesus waiting two days before going to heal Lazarus, which allowed Lazarus to die so Jesus could glorify God by raising him from the dead. It is also seen in Caleb and Joshua, who remained strong and faithful in their promise from God to inherit the land, despite others' doubts and Israel's 40 years of wandering. Having faith and patience like Abraham and Caleb, who inherited God's promises, believers can be assured God will fulfill his purposes in his perfect timing.

    these forty-five years since Moses made this promiseeven while Israel wandered
    in the wilderness. Today I am eighty-five years old.
    11 I am as strong now as I was when Moses sent me on that journey, and I can still
    travel and fight as well as I could then.
    Number 14;7-9
    7 and said to all the congregation of the people of Israel, The land, which we passed
    through to spy it out, is an exceedingly good land.
    8 If the Lord delights in us, he will bring us into this land and give it to us, a land
    that flows with milk and honey.
    9 Only do not rebel against the Lord. And udo not fear the people of the land, for
    they are bread for us. Their protection is removed from them, and the Lord is with
    us; do not fear them.

    God delight in us,He will give the land flowing milk and honey
