God is never before or behind His time; He makes everything beautiful in His own time. When God sets His time He sticks to it. His timing is factored by His will; because, He does all things after the counsel of His will. In teaching His disciples how to pray; Jesus said to His disciples – “After this manner therefore pray ye:
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven” Matthew 6:9-10.
If His will is being done; it simply means that His timing is what stands; because His timing is factored by His will. His timing takes preeminence over the time setting activities of men. Just as the heavens are high above the earth; so are God’s ways higher than our ways and His thoughts higher than our thoughts.
God sets His time and He can never be hurried into any situation. He doesn’t employ a fire brigade kind of approach to any situation; He sees the end from the beginning. It is true that you are just seeing it; but God saw it ever before it came to light. He sees in darkness as much as He sees in light and it will be out of place seeking to hurry Him into what He has already seen.
He has seen it, and has already taken care of it. You may not be able visualize what He has done, but as far as He is concerned, it is a settled matter. He told Peter in Luke 22:31-32 – “satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat: but I have prayed for thee”. His fore knowledge is not for the fun of it; it is not to ridicule you, but to uphold and sustain you in victory.
God is never before or behind His time. When Lazarus took ill and his sisters sent for Jesus; Jesus had a set time to go there, it was certainly not in line with the timing of these two women. As “odd” as they felt His timing was; when He showed up in His time, everyone was glad that He came the time He did. God is never too late. He is always on time. Do you feel that God is getting too late for your situation? Hold it! Help is on the way; by the time it comes, you will thank God for the glory of His timing and you’ll discover that it wouldn’t have come at a better time than it did, because God is never before or behind His time.
