#1,343: God is Always on Time

Trust today that your steps are being established by the Lord. When it’s time to take the next step, God will make it clear. As you wait, believe that even though the waiting may not make sense, God’s will is being performed in your life. His will, His plan, and His timing are perfect.

Main Points:

1. God is never early, never late, but he’s always on time. Our timing isn't God's timing. For us, God's timing often feels like a long, desperate delay.

2. I’m struck by how many verses there are in the Bible that talk about waiting on God. One Bible scholar has found that the word “wait” is in the Bible 154 times. That is a lot of waiting. I don’t know about you, but I don’t particularly enjoy waiting. Yet, if God makes us wait, there is a reason. There is something to be learned in the waiting, and I don’t want to miss the lesson.

3. The Holy Spirit is alive and active in the life of the believer. One of his purposes is to bring guidance and direction to our lives. He is faithful to lead us to God’s plan, but He can also be trusted to guide us to God’s timing.

Today’s Scripture Verses:

Psalm 31:15 -  "My times are in Your hands ..."

Ecclesiastes 3:11 - "He has made everything beautiful in its time.”

Proverbs 16:9  - “In their hearts, humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps.”
