You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.  For, “In just a little while, he who is coming will come and will not delay.”

Hebrews 10:37

This is written to believers.  They have accepted Christ as Lord and cling to Him for strength to endure suffering and achieve the goal of life with Christ eternally.  The word of the Lord is simple and awesome, “persevere.”  Keep on doing the will of God!   This requires faith and hope.  We are urged to realize that it in just a little while he who is coming will come and will not delay. 

We have our own understandings of how quickly we want the Lord to act for us.  That is just fine as long as we remember that time is in the hands of the Lord.  He might appear now, or years from now.  The promise is that he will come!  There will be no delay when the hour strikes.

Grasping the promises of God is the joy of all believers.  The timing is in the hands of God!
