Besides the natural times and seasons there are certain times and seasons for preordained events in God’s plan for man. The children of Issachar had understanding of “the times, to know what Israel ought to do” (1 Chron. 12:32). The wise men knew by the star when Christ was born (Mt. 2:1-2, 7, 9-10). Jesus understood the signs of His time, and He rebuked the Pharisees for not discerning the signs of the time as well as they could discern the natural seasons (Mt. 16:1-4). In Ps. 19:1 we have the fact that the heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament showeth His handiwork. See also Acts 1:6-7; 1 Thess. 5:1-3. These and other passages clearly indicate that the planets rule times and seasons and reveal certain truths.
