God's time is perfect
Everything has its time
Everything has its time, and everything that is wanted under the sky has its time.
Time to be born, and time to die; planting time, and time to start the planting; time to kill, and time to heal; a time to destroy, and a time to build; time to cry, and time to laugh; time to lament, and time to dance; the time to spread stones, and the time to gather stones; time to embrace, and time to refrain from embracing; time to search, and time to lose; time to keep, and time to throw away; time to break, and time to sew; time to keep silent, and time to speak; time to love, and time to hate; time of war, and time of peace.
- Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8
Everything made it beautiful in its time; and he has put eternity in their hearts, without man being able to understand the work that God has done from the beginning to the end.
- Ecclesiastes 3:11
In your hands are my times.
*Psalm 31:15
Although it seems that it is delayed in arriving, wait with patience, because without a doubt it will happen. It will not take long.
- Habakkuk 2: 3
But those who wait for Jehovah will have new strength; they will raise wings like eagles; they will run, and they will not get tired; they will walk, and they will not tire.
- Isaiah 40:31
For the Lord, one day is like a thousand years and a thousand years are like a day. 9 In reality, it is not that the Lord is slow to fulfill his promise, as some think. On the contrary, he is patient for love of you.
If the young sheepherder David, had folded to the pessimism, fear and conformism of King Saul and his army. If he had adopted the criteria used by many to say that God would act at the precise moment because "God's time is perfect" and not do what he did immediately, the giant Goliath and the Philistines would have surely given him tremendous defeat .
On the other hand, if Nehemiah and the people of God, when they decided to return to Jerusalem to restore the city wall, would have reasoned like that, and had not advocated hard work, with faith and decidedly, God would never have given him the victory . If they had said, no! we're going to wait! "The time of God is perfect", the enemies would have destroyed them and prevented the reconstruction that God expected from their leader and his people. They made a decision and the actions were taken simultaneously. "For they that builded, every one had his sword girded about his loins, and so they builded; and the one who played the trumpet was next to me. " "We, then, worked on the work; and half of them had spears from sunrise until the stars came out. " Neh. 4: 18,21. How do you like it?
God does not want lazy, conformist and justifying people in their ranks. He does not want people to hide in spurious "reasonings" only to not obey his Word. He says "Lazy, how long will you sleep? When will you rise from your sleep? Prov. 6: 9. Until next Tuesday, God through.
