How do we know Jesus is sovereign over time?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus demonstrates His sovereignty over time by orchestrating events according to God's perfect plan.

The narrative in John 11 illustrates Jesus' sovereignty over time and circumstances. Despite the urgency of Lazarus’ illness, Jesus delays His response intentionally, underscoring His control over life's events. He articulates that Lazarus' death serves a greater purpose, which is to glorify God. The story is a vivid reminder that Jesus operates within the divine timetable set by the Father, where nothing occurs outside of God’s will. As believers, we can rest assured that God is in control of our timelines and situations, managing everything to fulfill His sovereign purposes for our good and His glory.
