Resident god

Hello everybody
can you help me figure out what the meaning of "resident god" is in the following paragraph?

"A relatively new member of the creepy child family, Yuno Gasai is the lead heroine, if you want to call her that, of the manga Future Diary. The series focuses on Yukiteru Amano, a lonely kid whose cell phone is given the power to predict his future by the resident god of time and space Deus Ex Machina."

Thanks.

Did you look up ' deus ex machina' ? It means 'any active agent who appears unexpectedly to solve an insoluble difficulty'. 'Resident ***' means that this particular manga has its own '***', or ruling power, which grants Yukitero his ability.

I get junk mail addressed "Resident" It simply means "the person who lives at this address".

The address in your selection is "all space and time." So I suppose it is the *** who permanently occupies the universe.
"Deux ex machina" is a contrivance by an author to get around an intractable problem in his plot by some sort of unexpected event or miracle.
