"My times are in your hands," (cf. Psalm 31:15, NIV).
Remember: God invented and created the time-space continuum (time being the corollary of space and matter) and that we are captive and limited to; therefore God escapes the confines and limits of space, matter, and time as a consequence of being the Creator not part of creation. Ecclesiastes says that God makes everything beautiful in His time (cf. Eccl. 3:1). That was especially true at the advent of Christ in the fulness of time when everything was prepared and ready. It can be said that God is not limited or defined by time because He created it and it can not confine Him as we are to the four dimensions. He is above and beyond and extra-dimensional as it were however, God entered history and continues to orchestrate it as the unfolding story of man's divine redemption in real-time.
With God, time is not of the essence; He has all the time in the world! He never wastes time but uses it according to His decrees while He perfectly orchestrates history and micromanages the world's time-keeping. With God, time is everything and His timing is perfect! Jesus was born in the nick of time when it was His time and everything was ready including the prophecies. Likewise, we must seek God's timing and realize He never tarries and will do everything according to schedule and plan.
There is a time for every purpose under heaven and God calls us especially to "wait on the Lord." Our life is to be of expectancy! We may be in a trial and must learn patience as God had patience with Israel in the wilderness and the exile and in the captivity. Thank God that He can relate to our sense of time because He entered our dimension of time in the Person of Jesus and experienced our weakness. Jesus actually stepped into time, which He created! We must certainly learn God's patience. God will also meet us when we are ready and knows the best time for us individually. When Jesus was incarnated, it was a special work of Providence when God chose purposefully to intervene in our lives and history. We must also look to our visitation as to Jesus stepping into our lives and intervening in our personal time.
We must have faith in God's timetable that He knows what He's doing with His time, for we are living on borrowed time! Since God is never early or premature, but on time and never late or postponed or canceled, so should we strive to be godly. He is on time all the time with no partiality and preference to change it for someone. Things always happen according to His Plan and He needs no Plan B for His will is destined to happen.
Part of being human is a sense of time and of eternity; some live in the past and some in the future and both are cheating themselves of their lives in real-time. Soli Deo Gloria!
