"We live in a physical world with its four known space-time dimensions of
length, width, height (or depth) and time. However, God dwells in a
different dimension—the spirit realm—beyond the perception of our
physical senses. It’s not that God isn’t real; it’s a matter of His not
being limited by the physical laws and dimensions that govern our world (
Isaiah 57:15). Knowing that “God is spirit” (
John 4:24), what is His relationship to time?
In
Psalm 90:4,
Moses used a simple yet profound analogy in describing the timelessness
of God: “For a thousand years in Your sight are like a day that has
just gone by, or like a watch in the night.” The eternity of God is
contrasted with the temporality of man. Our lives are but short and
frail, but God does not weaken or fail with the passage of time.
