LIFE LESSONS FROM THE BOOK OF ECCL 3:1
"To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:"
1.Note : That challenge is for a season . It might tarry at times and look like nothing is changing . Listen , "it is for a season." I can confidently say this. Think of the trials you 've been through in the past , that initially looked like there was no way out . But here you are today , reading this .lol .It will change , "believe" .Luke 8:50 "But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made whole."
2. Your are not married yet or you don't have a child ? It is for a season. it doesn't matter how long it is taking. Here is the key- Spiritual and physical soundness comes during your waiting period. God has a plan , he is working through you to fulfil his own purpose on earth. The birth John the baptist was spiritually timed to suit the coming of our Lord and Master "Jesus". So no matter how Elizabeth fasted and prayed for a child , it would not have arrived until the accepted time . Check the arrival of samuel the prophet , it was also timed .Listen , your child is on the way , your wife/husband surely is going to come , as long as you have prayed , believe God . He never fails . "Never" . He delivers the very best ! Amen. Gen 21:2 (NASB) "So Sarah conceived and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the appointed time of which God had spoken to him." Note . God's appointed time . Trust Him! Isa 26:3
3. Your warfare is also for a season. . The battle might be raging hard.spiritual attacks every night. lol. relax ,is all part of the "drama", believe me . it is only for a season. This is the key . never lose faith , keep praying and keep trusting God. It has been programmed in heaven to end on its appointed day . Nahum 1:15b (Msg) "No more worries about this enemy. This one is history. Close the books." It will end !
4. God uses the season you are in to train you .James 1:4 (NIV)"Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything."
5. God uses the season you are in to prepare you for "the blessing." Psalm 105:19 (NLT)"Until the time came to fulfill his dreams, the LORD tested Joseph's character."
6. God uses the season you are in to build your trust in him. As a believer your challenge turns you to God not away for him. Job 13:15 "Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him."
7. God uses your season to teach you personally what nobody else can teach you .what I call "practical experience in your storm" . Key - What made you reduce the number of "close" friends you have today . Betrayal, envy , jealousy gave you the practical experience you needed . John 14:26 "But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you."
8. There are two kinds of season .As a believer , we all must pass through the school of weeping .lol . And if you have gone through that school or you are still going through the "school of weeping" john 16:20 , don't lose hope just yet, get ready to be admitted into the school of joy , breakthrough unending , testimonies on ending , favour unending in your life today in the name of Jesus , amen. Roms 8:16-17 (Msg) "an unbelievable inheritance! We go through exactly what Christ goes through. If we go through the hard times with him, then we’re certainly going to go through the good times with him!" .Relax , your moment of joy is close in Jesus name , Amen.
9. God prunes you in your season. The tougher the season , the quicker the pride in your life dies and humility begins to sing a new song . "my personal experience o"lol . The tougher the season , the harden your faith and boldness become to take decisions or steps , normally you would not have taken because of the weakness of the flesh. Isa 41:10 (Amp). Why? I give you a simple scenario , though it might not be related to what you are facing , but you would get the gist of what I am trying to say , As a child of God in this wicked world that will live in , if you keep running away from "issues" you need to confront , the enemy will always use it to torment you . prov 29:25 (NLT)"Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but trusting the LORD means safety.". What you need to settle , settle it an move on .
10. Finally , believe it or not . God has already ordained your day of celebration in heaven . Psalm 119:89 (NSV) "Your word is forever, LORD; it is firmly established in heaven."2. Your are not married yet or you don't have a child ? It is for a season. it doesn't matter how long it is taking. Here is the key- Spiritual and physical soundness comes during your waiting period.
