Ever look around and wonder—why do wicked people seem to get away with everything?
Welcome to The Daily, where we go through the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every single day.
Today, we’re looking at Ecclesiastes 8:10-13:
Then I saw the wicked buried. They used to go in and out of the holy place and were praised in the city where they had done such things. This also is vanity. Because the sentence against an evil deed is not executed speedily, the heart of the children of man is fully set to do evil. Though a sinner does evil a hundred times and prolongs his life, yet I know that it will be well with those who fear God, because they fear before him. But it will not be well with the wicked, neither will he prolong his days like a shadow, because he does not fear before God. — Ecclesiastes 8:10-13
Why does injustice seem to thrive? Because judgment doesn’t come instantly. When consequences are delayed, people double down on sin. They assume there’s no reckoning.
But here’s the truth—just because judgment is slow doesn’t mean it’s not coming.
Solomon lays it out. The wicked might stretch their days, but their success is a fading shadow. Their time runs out. But those who fear God? In the end—it will be well with them.
So what do we do?
Stop obsessing over the wicked—it’s fool’s gold. Their wins are short-lived. Their legacy? Dust. Instead, lock your eyes on God. Fear Him. Obey Him. Stay steady.
God’s justice isn’t on our clock, but it’s never off schedule.
Your job? Walk in righteousness. Trust His timing. Because in the end, it won’t just be okay—it’ll be well with you.
