Your Season is Approaching




Ecc 3:1 - 1 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven.

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.
To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.  Ecc 3:1.  God has a plan for all people.  We  face many problems yet our problems should not distract us from trusting the Lord.  Our problems should be opportunities to discover that, without the Lord, life's problems do not have lasting solutions.

Seasonal Preparation
It is a good thing to recognize your season and prepare for it before it comes.  When we know that winter is approaching we:
  • Be sure to have fire logs for the fireplace
  • See to it that we have enough blankets
  • Warm clothing for cold days ahead
We also need to be spiritually ready for those seasonal changes that enter our lives.
When is it the right season? Psalms 3:1 -What soever he doeth shall prosper.  We will prosper because God will open doors.  The Lord will make opportunities that can be made only when His divine hand is in our life.
Blessings have their Season - Psalm 84:11 - For the Lord God is a sun and shield, the Lord will give grace and glory no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

The Lord does not always allow us to know exactly when He is going to send a blessing our way, but he has promised that he will not withhold any good thing from us.  


We will be able to recognize the approach of our Season:
The approach of our season can represent - a new thing may spring forth.  Isaiah 43:19 - See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it.  I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland.
Three ways that we can recognize the approach of our blessed season:
1. God plants us in a stable and secure place.
2. Our inner clock is set for a divine  appointment
3. The enemy comes in like a flood
God plants us in a Stable and Secure Place:
Jeremiah 32:4 Yea, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will plant them in this land assuredly with my whole heart and with my whole soul.
Psalm Chapter 1 says that the blessed man does not just grow, but he is also planted.  We need to know that the Lord plants the feet of a blessed person.  Never does a blessed person just pop up like a weed.  He or she is planted at a specific time, in a specific place, to accomplish a divine purpose. 
People who always move from church to church never grow well spiritually.  Even a plant in the natural needs a stable, consistent, secure place to grow.  Flowers thrive when they are perched near a window with a great deal of sunshine.  If they are in front of a window one day, behind a sofa the next day, on the kitchen counter top the next day, and in a closet the next day, the plants will not grow very well because they do not receive consistent light.  They always have to adjust and readjust to their surroundings. 
In order for God's children to grow well we need a stable and consistent place.  God is not concerned about how high our trunk grows, he is concerned about how deep our roots go.  Ephesians 3:17 -That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love.  Col 2:7 Rooted and built up in him, and established in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.
Are you a Fungi Christian?
The plants called fungi do not have a root system.  A fungus simply attaches itself to the side of a tree and grows.  Because it has no root system the slightest disturbance such as a strong wind or harsh weather, can easily dislodge it or blow it away.
Point:  If we are not  part of a Bible-believing God loving, Christ centered church fellowship, we are like that fungus without a root system.
Your Season is Approaching
Ephesians 1:11 -In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
The Lord has set a predetermined appointment to bring His promises to pass in our lives.  He sets the clock.
God Synchronizes His answers to accomplish His purpose.
  • When it is your time to be blessed the Lord will have all things in order.
  • All things will work in perfect divine order.
  • In our lives when we have completed a time of suffering, testing, storms, trials, set backs, financial difficulties, everything will seem to click and we will begin to come into our best season. 
The Blessings will Come
  • People will bless you financially
  • Doors will open
  • Relationships will become bonding
  • Healing will come
