Is God’s timing perfect?

Yes. From experience a wholehearted yes.

Yes because God does nothing imperfectly.

...only if he is sovereign over all things.

I guess.

From my playlist...

If your ambulance is delayed and you died on your way to the hospital, was God's timing perfect? Maybe, since it can also be God's mercy on you. But this is very difficult to separate from the devil's works on time. For example, God granted your wish to give birth to a child after you graduate from school. But in your last year you got raped and you gave birth to that child and fell out of school as a result. Now whose timing is perfect?

You'd better believe it.

Gods timing is absolutely perfect, period. Though His timing is indeed perfect, we in our human minds might not agree or or perceive or think it is perfect as it pertains to our lives.

A being of infinite goodness and wisdom cannot be the least bit mistaken nor unkind. All of God's dealings with us are far better than our sins deserve.

God actually created time.
So it's not the hassle you might think to "get the timing right".
Be concerned about you paying attention to what God is doing.

God is perfect. God's timing is perfect. The LORD provides. He is sovereign over all His creation.

Proverbs 16:9 In their hearts humans plan their course, but the LORD establishes their steps.

Hes always on time, never late never to early. OT God uses some other evil people to lol like Judge Israel. WHAT? Has GOD went mad? He just smiles.. wait.. it will all turn out better then you can know. Most of the time.. we wont.. we do it our way and goof it all up.

Someone one talked about "ambulance". Can God control people? And the person in question.. living walking by faith? Well doing what we want hearing saying thinking <--still want to talk about "Gods timing"? Nope.. not there. Now we are just tossing the dice and seeing what happens.

I think if we gave every moment.. every thought desire.. what we hear, think, say.. praying about and in all things. Having that bible before our eyes day and night. We would be blown away at all the wonders we would see our God do. In the TINY SHORT lol moments I have TRIED to do this.. YES.. Gods timing was spot on.. never ever late early.. perfect.

I sure do,God knows the right and best time for fulfilling all our dreams.

As I understand God, he does not live in time but in eternity. I believe He sees the entire creation from beginning to end. Yet I also believe that our choices still have to be made and He sees those choices and is prepared for them.

For example, the 1 Peter tells us the plan for the crucifixion was before the foundation of the world (1:20) because Adam might choose to sin. However when he did sin, Revelations tells us the Lamb was slain from the foundation of the world (13:8). This means that the moment Adam sinned, as far as God was concerned, it was a done deal for Christ to be crucified. Yet this still took 4,000 years before the actual crucifixion occurred.

Simply put, yes, His timing is perfect, but not for us. His timing is perfect to accomplish what He wants to accomplish. We are beneficiaries of his timing, but his timing is for His own will.



By the way, a copiest error dropped an r. It was celebrate, not celibate. Just a joke, of course.
