INTRODUCTION:
In life, many people encounter delays that seem to slow down their progress, whether in their careers, ministries, relationships, or even in personal development. These delays can be incredibly frustrating, especially when it feels as if you are working hard but not seeing the results you expect. However, the Bible tells us that God is able to break the power of delay and accelerate our progress by His supernatural speed. Just as He did for the children of Israel, bringing them out of Egypt and guiding them swiftly through the wilderness, God can break every barrier of delay in your life and cause you to move forward at His divine pace.
Supernatural speed is not just about rushing forward; it is about being propelled by God's power in such a way that what would have taken years is accomplished in a much shorter time. In Isaiah 60:22, God promises that at the right time, He will make things happen, and His timing is always perfect. This message is for those who have been struggling with delay and stagnation—God wants to give you the grace for supernatural speed to break through every barrier that has been holding you back.
The key to breaking delay barriers is understanding the power of divine acceleration and positioning yourself to receive it. Today, we will explore how God’s supernatural speed works, how to activate it in your life, and how you can move from delay to divine acceleration.
1. GOD IS THE SOURCE OF SUPERNATURAL SPEED
Supernatural speed comes from God and is activated by His hand upon your life.
a) God Speeds Up Your Process
In moments when you feel stuck, God's hand can speed up your journey (Psalm 31:15).
b) God's Timing Breaks the Power of Delay
When God moves, delays cease to have power over you (Ecclesiastes 3:11).
c) Divine Speed Is Released Through Prophecy
Prophetic words spoken over your life can activate divine speed (Zechariah 4:9-10).
d) God Can Change the Seasons of Delay
What has been delayed for years, God can accelerate in a moment (Habakkuk 2:3).
Biblical Example: The Israelites' sudden progress after leaving Egypt (Exodus 12:37-39).
2. THE IMPORTANCE OF ALIGNMENT WITH GOD’S WILL
Alignment with God’s will is crucial for experiencing supernatural speed in your life.
a) Seek God’s Timing
Divine speed works best when you are in alignment with God’s perfect timing (Romans 8:28).
b) Obey God’s Instructions for Acceleration
God’s speed is activated by our obedience to His instructions (John 2:5).
c) Position Yourself for the Release of Supernatural Speed
You must be positioned to receive divine acceleration (Isaiah 60:22).
d) Waiting on God Brings Renewed Strength
Those who wait on the Lord are empowered to move with supernatural speed (Isaiah 40:31).
Biblical Example: The alignment of the Israelites with God’s will as they entered the Promised Land (Joshua 3:14-16).
3. FAITH ACTIVATES DIVINE ACCELERATION
Faith is the key to unlocking the supernatural speed of God in your life.
a) Faith Believes in God’s Ability to Speed Up Your Journey
Faith trusts that God can break through any delay and accelerate your progress (Mark 11:24).
b) Faith Positions You for Instant Breakthrough
Faith is the currency that God uses to perform miracles, including speeding up time for you (Matthew 9:29).

When you believe God's promises, you activate supernatural speed (Romans 4:20-21).

With faith, you will overcome all the obstacles that have been slowing your progress (Matthew 17:20).
Biblical Example: The faith of the woman with the issue of blood led to immediate healing (Mark 5:25-34).
4. THE POWER OF PRAYER IN BREAKING DELAY BARRIERS
Prayer is a powerful tool that activates divine speed and breaks the barriers of delay.
a) Prayer Brings Heaven’s Intervention
Prayer activates God’s supernatural intervention in times of delay (James 5:16).
b) Prayers of Agreement Accelerate Your Progress
Agreement in prayer can break the chains of delay and bring rapid progress (Matthew 18:19).
c) Persistent Prayer Brings Sudden Breakthroughs
Like the persistent widow, continuous prayer can bring divine speed and breakthrough (Luke 18:1-8).
d) God Hears and Answers Prayer for Speedy Restoration
God is attentive to our cries for help and answers with supernatural speed (Psalm 34:17).
Biblical Example: The prayer of Elijah that brought rain after a long drought (1 Kings 18:42-45).
5. GOD WILL RESTORE AND ACCELERATE YOUR BLESSINGS
