Isaiah 46:9-10
“Remember the former things long past, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is
no one like Me, declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things which have not
been done, saying, 'My purpose will be established, and I will accomplish all My good pleasure.'”

Isaiah 48:3
“I declared the former things long ago and they went forth from My mouth, and I proclaimed them.
Suddenly I acted, and they came to pass.”

Before Adam was formed, even before the stars were set in their courses, Yahweh established by His
own counsel a divine plan of the ages. He saw the end from the beginning and appointed times for
every event, culminating in the reconciliation of the entire creation back to Himself through His Son
Yahshua.

Ephesians 3:8-11
Unto me—the less than least of all saints, was given this favour, unto the nations, to announce the
glad-message of the untraceable riches of the Christ, and to bring to light—what is the administration
of the sacred secret which had been hidden away from the AGES in God, who did all things create:
In order that now, unto the principalities and the authorities in the heavenlies, might be made known,
through means of the assembly, the manifold wisdom of God,— According to a plan of the ages
which He made in the anointed Jesus our Lord.
(Rotherham's Emphasized Bible)

There is a profound precision to the calendar of God. The exactness of events that occur on Yahweh’s
timetable is observed everywhere throughout the Scriptures. The Israelites wandered for forty years
in the wilderness, and Yahshua was tested for forty days in the wilderness at the beginning of His
ministry. The Israelites came up from Egypt at the appointed time, on the night of the first Passover.
This occurred 430 years to the day from the time they first entered Egypt.

Exodus 12:40-41
Now the time that the sons of Israel lived in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years. And it came
about at the end of four hundred and thirty years, to the very day, that all the hosts of Yahweh went
out from the land of Egypt.

The first three kings of Israel, and the only three to rule over the entire twelve tribes, each in turn
ruled for forty years and then died.

Acts 13:21
And then they asked for a king, and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of
Benjamin, for forty years.

I Kings 2:11
And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years...
