Timing in Teaching

Luke 1:1-4, 4:14-21. The beginning of the Galilean ministry

Timing in Teaching

Jesus seemed to be more active with his teaching, in contrast to the previous readings where He did not want others to spread stories about Him yet. The people have begun following Him more intently.

There is indeed timing involved in teaching and fulfilling a prophecy. Perhaps prophecy is not about fortune telling nor prediction, but a recognition that a society is headed and must head towards a certain state before a change agent can bring about a desired outcome.

Maybe there are insights that are always there, but the knower is not yet ready or aware. The Word is always there, but we must seek Him.
