Understanding the Timing of God

Pastor Zubeda Sing · 2 min read

“And he will be like a tree firmly planted [and fed] by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season; Its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers [and comes to maturity]”
Psalm 1v3

There is perfect timing in God. There is a season and a time for everything in our lives. God planned for our lives before the foundations of the earth. Nothing just happens. God is fully aware of what happens in our lives. He even knows the season and the time we are in. He knows what we are facing. He will never give us more than we can handle. In everything we are facing or have to deal with, God has prepared all that we will need to overcome and go through.

It would seem that somethings we face is taking a long time. No, not so. It is only a season, it is only for a short time. It will surely pass and we will come over to the other side of the problem. We are in a hurry to get past the difficulty or challenge, but through it all, God is working all things for our good. After the passage of time, you will look back and see what you have learnt during this time of trouble or difficulty.

When we face illness, it makes us relook our diet and eating patterns. We then make adjustments to our eating habits, this helps us in the current situation and in the future, we live healthier lives. Health and healing is our portion but our lack of understanding causes us to indulge in bad eating habits. So, it was not God who gave you the illness or attack on your body. Sometimes it just takes a little adjustment and our lives get better. This is just one example of how seasons in our lives, bring long term results, it is part of our prosperity. A healthy life, is part of a prosperous mindset.
