God is Already There

“This covenantal relationship is understood to be obtained between God and future generations of Israelites, not yet born at the time the covenant was established. God, being eternal, has the ability to enter into a relationship which transcends the time limits of individual human lives, or even of whole generations.”--Louis Newman (In reference to the covenant given in Exodus 19:1-9)

God entered into a covenantal relationship with us BEFORE our lifetimes on this earth. That's HUGE! He pledged His Son before our fall. We're told in Revelation 13:8 that Christ is the "lamb slain from the foundation of the world."

"Before they call I will answer; while they are still speaking I will hear."--Isaiah 65:24

He provides before we're in need, atones before we sin, loves before we're born, answers before we ask, knows before we see, hears before we speak.

So, "Fear not tomorrow, God is already there."
