The NIV 365 Day Devotional

He Is On Time

The people of Israel had eagerly waited for centuries for the Messiah to arrive, but it wasn’t until the perfect moment in history, during the census of the entire Roman world, when the baby was born. Jesus was born right on time and in the right place, fulfilling many Old Testament prophecies.

He’s consistently, perfectly, always on time. You may be waiting for God to fulfill a promise to you. Don’t lose hope; he’s on time and always keeps his promises. However, sometimes God’s waiting room can be God’s training room. Waiting helps you grow into the woman he intends you to be.
