Why God Was not Punish Evil Sooner?.. Judges9

Abimelech was the opposite of what God wanted in a judge, but it was three years before God moved against him, fulfilling Jotham's parable. Those three years must have seemed like forever to Jotham. Why wasnt Abimelech punished sooner for his evil ways?

We are not alone when we wonder why evil seems prevail. God promise to deal with sin, but in HIS time, not ours. Actually it is good news that God doesnt punish us immediately because we all have sinned and deserve God's punishment. God, in HIS mercy, often spares us from immediate punishment and allows us time to turn from our sins and turn to HIM in repentance.

Trusting God for justice means ; We must first recognize our own sins and repent, and we may face a difficult time of waiting for wicked to be punished. But in God's time, all evil will be destroyed
