Perfect Timing

God's timing is perfect.

The coming of Christ was at the right time.

When the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son. —Galatians 4:4

Alexander the Great had conquered most of the known world, bringing with him the Greek culture and language. The Roman Empire then expanded the territory under the unifying influence of the culture and language of the Greeks. 

It was under the Roman rule that the crucifixion took place, where the blood of Christ was shed for us. It was under the Roman rule that conditions were made ready for the spread of the gospel across three continents: good roads, free passages, and a unifying language. 

God’s timing is perfect in everything. In His infinite wisdom and power, He works behind the scene to prepare all things for just the right time.

Wait well and trust Him. He knows when the fullness of time has come. Learn the disciplines of patience. 

Wait On God

Be still, and know that I am God. 

- Psalm 46:10 -

We are to cease striving.

We are to let God intervene in our situation without our interference.

We are not to push things out of our way.

We are not to protect ourselves.

We are not to strike back.

We are to put our hands down.

We may feel defenseless and vulnerable.

But God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

We must stop struggling and wait on God to do His work!
