GOD’S PERFECT TIMING

Pastor Rick Jackson

I. GOD’S TIMING IS PERFECT BECAUSE...

1. God’s Knowledge is Perfect [Psalm 139:1-6]

Psalms 94:10 He that chastiseth the heathen, shall not he correct? he that teacheth man knowledge, shall not he know?

2. God’s Wisdom is Perfect [Romans 11:33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!]

3. God’s Character is Perfect [Isaiah 5:16 But the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, and God that is holy shall be sanctified in righteousness.]

2 Timothy 2:13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.

II. GOD’S TIMING IS PERFECT IN THE UNIVERSAL THINGS...

1. The First Worldwide Judgment [2 Peter 2:4-9]

2. The First Coming of Christ [Gal. 4:4]

3. The Second Coming of Christ and the Last Worldwide Judgment [2 Peter 3:1-7, Matthew 24:21-22]

III. GOD’S TIMING IS PERFECT IN THE PERSONAL THINGS...

1. The Salvation of Souls [Genesis 6:3 And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.]

Romans 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Acts 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

2. The Leading of His Children [Psalms 31:3 For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me.]

Psalms 32:8 I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.

Psalms 48:14 For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.

3. The Death of Individuals [Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.]

Psalms 116:15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.
