The Seasons Phenomenon Part One DWD July 26 July 25th, 2013 by The comfort Zone Gen 8:22, Act 1:7, Ecc 3:1, Ecc. 8:5, Psalms 1:3, Hebrews 11:15 Hints to Daily Wisdom Devotion “While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.” Gen 8:22 seasons God gave his promise to Noah after the flood waters that covered the earth retreated; the spoken word from the master and creator brought into implementation the pattern of seasons upon the earth for as long as it continues to exist. Seasons are phenomena that humanity has learned to live with ever since. Men and brethren, we plant and harvest our crops according to the growing seasons; no man plant and harvest at the same time. It is a pity generation that expects both to function all at the same time. We plan our activities and build our buildings according to the seasonal weather patterns. It makes sense, therefore, that we learn how to work with the seasons of the spirit in every endeavour of our life. Seasons are a fixed and definite time; definite opportunities for occurrence of event, activity or pronouncement. Seasons emphasized and bring into manifestation broadly spoken accomplishment that expresses the duration of a period, and stresses it as marked by certain features. Moreover, no man prospers beyond the pronouncement of his seasons” Both words are used in Act 1:7 when Jesus said, “…It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.” 2Kings 4:16 And he said, About this season, according to the time of life, thou shalt embrace a son. And she said, Nay, my lord, thou man of God, do not lie unto thine handmaid. There are some events that only God knows the timing of -the second coming of Jesus is one of those events. But on the other hand, there is a wealth of knowledge that can be acquired by studying what the Bible says about the times and the seasons of man’s life. The Appointed Season - “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.” Ecc 3:1 We must start by agreeing with King Solomon that every thing in life has a proper time and season that yields the most favourable results. It is important to ask for permission from heaven to grant you life of purpose; a man without definite assignment only exists and life can toss you up and down with passion. The Berkeley translation says, “For everything there is an appointed season, and there is a proper time for every project under heaven.” The Basic English translation says, “For everything there is a fixed time…” “Timing” is defined as the ability to perform movements and actions at the most effective moment. “Timing” is also defined as the regulation of the occurrence, the pace, or the coordination of a matter that best achieves a desired effect.” We can easily see the importance of timing in things like music, comedy, athletics and automobile mechanics; the synchronization of which determines the quality of results. Therefore, learning how to discern the proper timing for life’s endeavours is very important. Ecclesiastes 8:5 says, “… a wise man’s heart discerneth both time and judgment. Because to every purpose there is time and judgment…” The Amplified says, “…a wise man’s mind will know both when and what to do. For every purpose and matter has its right time and judgment…” It’s not enough to know what to do; you also need to know “when to do a thing” and “how to get it done.” If you get any one of those three concepts wrong – the what, the when, and the how – you stand the risk of interfering with God’s perfect plan for your life and living out of balance with the timings and the seasons of the Spirit.
