Topic :Understanding Divine Timing And Season.

Memory Verse : Philippians 4:4. Be cheerful with joyous celebration in every season of life. Let joy overflow, for you are united with the Anointed One!

Bible Reading : Philippians 4:5-7 TPT. Key Verse : v6.

Let gentleness be seen in every relationship, for our Lord is ever near. Don’t be pulled in different directions or worried about a thing. Be saturated in prayer throughout each day, offering your faith-filled requests before God with overflowing gratitude. Tell him every detail of your life, then God’s wonderful peace that transcends human understanding, will make the answers known to you through Jesus Christ.

We live in a world as well as function in a kingdom regulated by time and seasons. Everything God does on earth is subject to his own timing therefore and not that of any other entity. When we pray, we activate his visitation that comes in seasons; but not many are able to identify them as to key in and take maximum advantage of such seasons of change for the betterment of their lives and situations. For example, there are things many people keep asking heaven for, sometimes when those things are released, they are blind to recognise them because they may not appreciate the way they came or their appearance. Just like the Jews who believe in the words of prophecy about the coming of Jesus, but couldn’t accept him when he finally arrived on the scene. To them, such Messiah shouldn’t come from such a humble background (a carpenter’s son born in a menger instead of a palace). “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;” Ecclesiastes 3:1-3 KJV.

One of the reasons we experience unnecessary delays in life, even as children of God sometimes is not because God doesn’t answer prayers and on time too, but because most time we are not able to identify with his timing and moves or we get distracted as to pay attention to the right things but at wrong times. Sometimes, the answers we expect don’t have the appearance that we desire as men. At this point only men who can see and hear beyond our human senses can have an edge through discernment. You see, Naaman almost missed it because the way Elisha attended to him fell short of his expectations from that meeting after all the sacrifice of taking the journey to see him, even the instructions given didn’t seem to worth the efforts. But thank God he finally humbled himself to listen to his servants. He would have missed that season of visitation that brought healing and restoration.

Now, I want us to note that it takes humility and sensitivity to understand the moves of God in a man’s life. Devil uses pride to make many turn down good things God brings their ways because they are a type of work in progress and not the finished products they are looking for. When we lack sensitivity, we won’t be able to see beyond physical appearance which can always be very deceitful. Even Samuel would have been deceived by the appearance of Eliab when he went to the house of Jesse to anoint a king over Israel to replace Saul at the instructions of the Lord. “And it came to pass, when they were come, that he looked on Eliab, and said, Surely the LORD’S anointed is before him. But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the LORD seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:6-7 KJV. As we enter a new month and a season of answers, pray that the Lord open you up to see and hear beyond the ordinary, so that you don’t miss any good thing or opportunities of divine change he is bringing your way in answer to your prayers. Anytime men miss such, they keep waiting for another season because of their own insensitivity because God is not an impostor (doesn’t force things on men).

Prayer: Thank you Father God because you answer prayers. From today, help me to be sensitive to your Spirit as to understand your timing and season in my life. Thank you for helping me not to miss your visitation this season in Jesus precious name…. Amen 🙏🏿.
