Returning to the overall picture of God’s rising in Man, let us go back to the Book of Exodus, where we are told: “The time that the people of Israel dwelt in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years. And at the end of four hundred and thirty years, on that very day all the hosts of the Lord departed from Egypt. It was a night of watching by the Lord.” ... In this world you are enslaved, and here you remain playing your part until you are embraced, impregnated, and thirty years later Christ is born in you and your trials and tribulations are over! ... I looked back to discover that it was thirty years. I discovered that Jesus began his ministry when he was thirty years of age, and that Israel made their exodus thirty years after the four hundred recorded in Genesis. ... Scripture fulfills itself in God’s time, and you cannot delay it or hasten its coming.
'God's rising in Man' refers to the ultimate spiritual awakening, the birth of Christ within the individual, which is the fulfillment of 'The Promise.' This process involves a period of spiritual enslavement (400 years), an embrace (conception), and a precise 30-year gestation period leading to the birth of Christ and liberation from the world of Caesar.
