What does it mean that God does not measure time as we do?

Answered in 1 source

God measures time according to His divine perspective, where a day can be as a thousand years.

Time is viewed differently by God compared to mankind. In 2 Peter 3:8, we find the affirmation that 'one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.' This highlights the concept that God's timeline is not bound by human understanding. While we may perceive delays in the fulfillment of His promises, God is eternally sovereign and works out His plans according to His perfect wisdom and purpose, ensuring that nothing is out of His control.
