YOUR SEASON

-

Psalm 1:3

And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.


When God created man and enabled him to reproduce, He did not leave it to chance. Every human is purposeful and came to be for a reason.


Thus Solomon teaches that every thing has its season:


Ecclesiastes 3:1

To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven:


Unlike Adam we are created to mature from young to adulthood then to old.


We all are each in one of these three phases.


There is nothing like the process, it ensures we are trained, matured and ready to take up our next position, promotion and assignment.


Genesis 1:14

And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:


Many who fall, have not passed through the process and thus may have not been ready for the overwhelming task or luxury heaped on them.


* Joseph had to be a slave and serve in prison to rule Egypt and likely the whole world.


* David had to run and hide in caves to rule Israel


* Daniel had to miss the luxury of the king's food and even be castrated to become a god in Babylon.


The process is essential, most of those who went through the process stayed strong.


Daniel 2:21

And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise And knowledge to those who have understanding.


As we enjoy the next level this year, let us understand that we have gone through a process to get there. We must then be ready to go through the process that will take us to the higher level. We must put on patience, prudence and listening that we may walk in wisdom and continue to excel.


In all, there is nothing like the process, that we may enjoy in our season.


May the Lord grant us grace to humbly go through our process that we may enjoy in our season.


1Peter 5:6

Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:


We win.


PRAYER 

Loving Father, help us reap fully the benefits of the process You took us through. Strengthen us O Lord for the next level for we go higher and higher everyday. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


He calls us blessed.


Love

@the watcher.

TRADE WISELY

-
Isaiah 40:31 But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Many have traded their joy chasing over material things and the pleasures and satisfaction of the world. The question is "is it worth it?". Yes we must earn, work and keep improving day after day but we must remember "nothing is free". We must pay a price. So, what are we ready to sacrifice? Some have sacrificed, their: * health * peace of mind * children * marriage * calling * ministry * good name All in the bid to get material things. 2Timothy 4:10 for Demas has forsaken me, having loved this present world, and has departed for Thessalonica-- Crescens for Galatia, Titus for Dalmatia. There is always a process, we would get into trouble when we try to use the shortcut, to get it by all means and immediately. Let us be careful of what exchange we make! Let us ask like J...

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta...

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same...
