I don't know why is Jesus so slow

We hear your frustration and pain, dear brother or sister in Christ. It’s deeply human to cry out when we feel the weight of unanswered prayers, especially when we long for godly marriage and provision. But let us gently remind you—God’s timing is not our timing, and His ways are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:8-9). The delay is not neglect; it may be preparation, protection, or even redirection toward something far greater than we can imagine.

First, we must examine our hearts. Are we seeking marriage *for the Lord’s glory*, or are we chasing a desire that may not align with His will? A spouse is not merely a companion but a covenant partner in Christ (2 Corinthians 6:14). If you are courting or considering someone, is this person equally yoked in faith, walking in holiness, and committed to God’s design for marriage? If not, we must surrender that desire to the Lord and trust Him to bring the right person in His perfect time.

As for your job, we understand the weight of financial need and the desire for stability. But let us remember: "Seek first God’s Kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you" (Matthew 6:33). Are you pursuing work with integrity, diligence, and faith, or have you grown impatient and taken matters into your own hands in ways that may not honor God?

Now, about the "180 minutes tape" you mentioned—we must warn you with love. Any teaching that suggests we can manipulate God’s timing through formulas, tapes, or rituals is dangerous. Our faith is not in methods but in the person of Jesus Christ. He alone is our mediator (1 Timothy 2:5), and we come to the Father *only* through Him (John 14:6). If this tape or any other resource promises quick answers outside of humble, persistent prayer and obedience, it is leading you away from the truth.

Let us rebuke the lie that God is "slow." The Lord is never late—He is always on time (Habakkuk 2:3). His delays are not denials; they are often divine setups for something better. But we must also rebuke any sin that may be hindering our prayers. Are you walking in sexual purity? Fornication—sex outside of marriage—grieves the Holy Spirit and creates barriers between us and God (1 Corinthians 6:18-20). Are you harboring bitterness, unforgiveness, or doubt? These too can hinder our prayers (Mark 11:25, James 1:6-7).

If you have not yet surrendered your life fully to Jesus Christ, we must urge you to do so now. Salvation is not found in rituals, tapes, or even good works—it is found in repentance and faith in Jesus alone (Acts 4:12, Romans 10:9). Without Him, we have no access to the Father. Without Him, our prayers are empty. If you have never confessed Jesus as Lord, do so today. Turn from sin, believe in His death and resurrection, and receive His gift of eternal life.

Now, let us pray together:

"Father God, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, the only name by which we can be saved and the only name by which we can approach Your throne. Lord, we lift up this dear one who is weary and frustrated. You see their heart—their longing for marriage, for provision, for answers. But Lord, we ask that You reveal any area where their desires may not align with Your will. Search their heart, O God, and know their thoughts. See if there is any wicked way in them, and lead them in the way everlasting (Psalm 139:23-24).

Father, we rebuke the spirit of impatience and doubt. We declare that Your timing is perfect, and Your plans for this child of Yours are for good and not for harm (Jeremiah 29:11). Forgive them if they have sought answers outside of You—through tapes, rituals, or their own strength. Cleanse them from all unrighteousness and renew a steadfast spirit within them (Psalm 51:10).

Lord, if there is any sin—sexual immorality, unforgiveness, idolatry of marriage or career—we ask that You convict them and lead them to repentance. Break any soul ties or ungodly attachments that are not of You. Restore them to a place of purity and wholehearted devotion to Christ.

Father, we pray for their future spouse, whether that person is already in their life or still unknown. Prepare them both, Lord. Let them be a man or woman after Your own heart, committed to You above all else. Guard their hearts from deception and lead them into a marriage that glorifies You.

For their job, we ask that You open the right doors and close the wrong ones. Provide for their needs according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19). Give them wisdom, favor, and peace in their work. If they are in a season of waiting, teach them to trust You as their Provider.

Lord, we declare that this one is not forgotten. You hear their prayers, and You are working even when they cannot see it. Strengthen their faith. Remind them that You are good, and Your love endures forever (Psalm 136:1). Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).

We pray all of this in the powerful, matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen."

Dear one, we encourage you to draw near to God in this season. Spend time in His Word, not just asking for things but seeking His face. Join a Bible-believing church where you can grow in community and accountability. Fast and pray, not as a ritual, but as a way to humble yourself before the Lord (Joel 2:12). And remember—God is not withholding good things from you (Psalm 84:11). He is preparing you, refining you, and aligning everything for His glory and your good.

If you have not yet given your life to Christ, we urge you to do so today. Confess your sins, believe in Jesus, and receive Him as Lord. Then, and only then, will you have the assurance that your prayers are heard and that God is working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28). You are not alone. We are praying for you, and more importantly, the Holy Spirit is interceding for you with groanings too deep for words (Romans 8:26). Trust Him. Wait on Him. He is faithful.
 
We're right there with you, dear friend, feeling your frustration and longing. It's tough when it feels like Jesus is taking His time, isn't it? But remember, His ways are not our ways, and His timing is always perfect. It's like we're in a dark room, feeling around for the light switch, but God is outside the room, watching us, knowing exactly where the switch is, and waiting for the right moment to turn on the lights. He's not slow; He's just waiting for the perfect time.

Let's take a moment to check our hearts. Are we seeking a godly marriage and job out of a desire to honor God, or are we chasing our own desires? Are we walking in holiness, purity, and obedience? If not, let's surrender these areas to God and trust Him to redirect our steps.

As for the "180 minutes tape," let's be careful not to put our trust in methods or formulas. Our faith is in Jesus Christ alone. He's the only way to the Father, and He alone can answer our prayers. Let's not get distracted by things that promise quick answers outside of humble, persistent prayer and obedience.

Let's also remember that God is never late. His delays are often setups for something even better. But let's also examine our lives, repent of any sin, and ask God to search our hearts and reveal any areas where our desires might not align with His will.

Let's keep praying, trusting, and waiting on the Lord. He sees you, He hears you, and He's working even when you can't see it. Keep seeking His face, join a Bible-believing church, and grow in community and accountability. God is not withholding good things from you; He's preparing you, refining you, and aligning everything for His glory and your good.

And if you haven't given your life to Christ yet, today is the day. Confess your sins, believe in Jesus, and receive Him as your Lord. Then, and only then, will you have the assurance that your prayers are heard, and that God is working all things together for your good.

You're not alone. We're praying for you, and the Holy Spirit is interceding for you with groanings too deep for words. Trust Him. Wait on Him. He is faithful.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
