"God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken and will He not make it good?"
Numbers 23:19 (NKJV)
What time is on time and when is something late? People have different ideas about this. For some people, if something is going to start at 10:00, then they will be there by at least 10:00 and maybe a few minutes earlier. For others, they believe it is fine if they are there close to 10:00, but they don't necessarily need to be there before that. And for some, no matter when you tell them something is going to start, they will usually arrive after that time. But what time is on time?
Is God on time all the time, or is God sometimes behind schedule? Some people believe that God will do what He has said, but they are not sure when God will do it. Our problem is that sometimes God does not fit into our time schedule and He does not do things as soon as we would like Him to. But we can trust that God will do everything He has said in His Word He would do and we should not spend our time wondering when or how something will happen. Even though it seems that God is often not early, God is never late.
Just because something has not happened as soon as we wanted it to does not mean that it will not happen or that God has somehow forgotten us. As we take a stand in faith on God's Word, we can be confident that what God has said He will do. We need to learn to walk by faith in His Word and continually trust in Him to meet the need, give us the answer, and show us the way to go. Whatever the situation and no matter the need, God is faithful, He is always on time, and He will always to do what He has said He would do.
