Faith Takes Time

Sometimes when God gives a vision and a calling, and says it will come to pass...

It may take 40 years. Think of David.
It may take 80 years. Think of Moses.
It may take 100 years. Think of Abraham.
It may take 120 years. Think of Noah.
It may take 400 years. Think of the Israelites in Egypt.
Or it may take 9 months. Think of Mary.
Or it may take 7 days. Think of the battle of Jericho.
Or it may take 3 days. Think of Jesus.

Or it may take 2000 years... and still going on. Think of the Great Commission.
Hebrews 11:13,39-40
All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance. And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth. [...] These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised. God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.
