MESSAGE

Divine timing is the belief that everything in your life happens at exactly the right moment. Though the situation or circumstance surrounding you may be tough, unusual or even not making sense, God who never comes late will appear suddenly at the appointed time.

God’s perfect timing will grow your faith because as you wait patiently and trust in Him, He will appear in your situation when you least expect. This is also so because the blessing God wants to give you is too good to be made in the microwave.

In Psalms 31:15, the Psalmist put his times in the hands of God, believing in Him that all of life’s circumstances are under His control.

In Isaiah 60:22b, God said, “I the Lord will hasten it in his time.” The Bible uses expressions such as appointed time (Habakkuk 2:3), fullness of time (Galatians 4:4-5) and at the right time (Romans 5:6) to refer to divine timing. According to our Fire Scripture for today, the Bible makes us to understand that timing is very important.

All the experiences listed in Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 are attached to certain times. The secret for having peace with God is to discover, accept and appreciate His timing. God’s timing is always prefect. He will never come too early, never late but always on time. His timing is always perfect even when you cannot see it.

If you have been praying for a particular thing and you’ve not seen an immediate change, it does not mean that God did not hear you. He might be testing your patience, but when you wait patiently for His divine time, he will appear in your situation. Remember that saying, “Delay is not a denial”, God never comes late.

Beloved, stop comparing yourself with others and complaining that things are happening in other people’s lives. It is their appointed time. God will make things happen for you too when it is your divine time. Remember, Psalm 30:5 says that weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning.
