1 Pet.4:17 says that judgment shall begin from the house of God. If we are waiting for God's judgment against the disobedience of the world, then our own obedience must be complete. God is not partial, and because He loves us, He will always wait for us to be perfected in obedience before unleashing His wrath against the children of disobedience, in judgment. So, why we are not yet seeing the wicked punished, or why we are not yet avenged against our persecutors, is simply because we are still leaving in disobedience. We are the ones holding back the hand of God's judgment.
