Read David Jeremiah Daily Devotional 25th December 2024, Wednesday Turning Point Devotional Message
TOPIC: The Right Time
But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law.
Galatians 4:4
Recommended Reading: 2 Peter 1:4
“I’m not sure exactly what time I’ll be there; but I will be there—promise,” a father tells his teenage daughter. The daughter’s faith is dependent on one thing: the father’s character. She has grown up knowing that her father keeps his word. She doesn’t need to know exactly what time he will arrive, but she knows he will show up.
God spoke through the Old Testament prophets about the coming of the Messiah without ever saying exactly when He would appear. But there is no record of the prophets doubting God’s promises. They didn’t need to know the exact time because they had learned to trust in God’s words. So when Christ did appear, the apostle Paul said it happened in “the fullness of the time.” That is, it happened at the “right time” according to God’s plans and purposes (Galatians 4:4, NLT).
God has given us promises without telling us, for the most part, how or when they will be kept. But the fulfilled promise of Christmas reminds us that God always keeps His promises at the “right time.”
Christmas is the day that holds all time together.
Alexander Smith
