Times, Seasons, Change, and a Great Awakening
We have entered a time of great change, and God is doing a new thing in the earth. We have just passed into a new season and a new time in the natural which is converging with a new season and time that God has declared in the earth. Even as the seasons change in the natural realm, so do times and seasons change in the spiritual realm. It is God Himself who appoints these things, and if He appoints them, nothing shall change them.
“Daniel answered, “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, For wisdom and power belong to Him. It is He who changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and establishes kings. He gives wisdom to the wise And [greater] knowledge to those who have understanding! [Dan 4:35] It is He who reveals the profound and hidden things; He knows what is in the darkness, And the light dwells with Him. [Job 15:8; Ps 25:14; Matt 6:6]”
Daniel 2:20-22 AMP
We have entered into Fall (Autumn) and the holiday season is before us. There is a shift in time as we all had to set our clocks back for Daylight Savings Time. The Lord has a set course of appointed times and destiny for humanity culminating ultimately one day in His Glorious Appearing which He has laid out clearly in His Holy Word. The enemy, however, has tried to usurp God’s timeline and cause things to happen that are not yet to be. The Lord has said no it shall not be so. We have come through a time of darkness and deception, lies and manipulation, some of which we were not even aware for many years. But God began to pull back the veil little by little. He could not do it all at once for it would have been too much to bear. We had to come this way for a reason. He knew what was in the darkness, and it was by His hand that He began to reveal the profound and hidden things which were in the darkness. The enemy thought he could do what he wanted and would never be caught. The Lord sees all things and knows all things. He has been shining the light of truth little by little so that we could see. He was pulling back the curtain a little at a time. It would have been too shocking and too traumatic if He were to do it all at once. There are still many who are trapped and deceived but they will come into the light in time. Pray for these for they are lost. They are trapped by deception, lies, manipulation and control. Many have known nothing else for their whole lives. God is moving and refining His church, so that when these come we will be ready. We will be a church moving in purity, holiness and fire that will bring the deliverance that He desires. A religious spirit and those who want to build their own kingdoms will not prosper.
Malachi 3:1-3. ““Behold, I am going to send My messenger, and he will prepare and clear the way before Me. And the Lord [the Messiah], whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple; the Messenger of the covenant, in whom you delight, behold, He is coming,” says the Lord of hosts. [Matt 11:10; Luke 1:13-17, 76] “But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s fire and like launderer’s soap [which removes impurities and uncleanness]. [Rev 6:12-17] He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and He will purify the sons of Levi [the priests], and refine them like gold and silver, so that they may present to the Lord [grain] offerings in righteousness.”
Malachi 3:1-3 AMP
The Lord gave me a dream where I saw Him come in a powerful move of His Spirit. In the dream I was watching in a church service as a woman started to speak about abortion. (God will deal with this sin.) As she was speaking, the Holy Spirit fell heavily upon the congregation. People were lying on the floor under the power of the Holy Spirit repenting from sin. The Lord was examining the hearts of the church with a magnifying glass and bringing great repentance. It was a good thing because the Lord was delivering many and cleansing people’s hearts so they could be set free and made new. God was purifying His church and setting things right which brought a sovereign move of His spirit upon the lost. I was then standing outside the church building and saw a multitude of people from all over the city where the church was come running towards the building. Men, women, and children of all ages. No one had announced anything or advertised a revival. People were compelled by the Holy Spirit to run to the church. As they got to the sidewalk outside the church, they fell down under the power of His Spirit. Then I saw more and more people running towards the church and as they got to the sidewalk, they also fell down under the power of the Holy Spirit until there were piles of people all around the church. This will be a great move of the Holy Spirit that will begin in the church and then move into the streets. A Great Awakening is coming again and He will have us ready to minister to those who will come out of the darkness and into His light. It will be something Holy and Pure initiated by God and no man shall take the glory in it. He will not allow a spirit of religion or selfish ambition of men to build their own kingdoms, but He will truly bring deliverance, transformation, and the life of the Kingdom of God. This is what God longs for in our lives and also what we will be able to carry with us to bring to the lost. He wants a pure bride walking in the power of His Spirit to go forth in the earth representing His kingdom in righteousness and truth. There are so many who have been deceived and lied to by those used by the enemy who will come out of the darkness and into the light. We must be ready for the future is bright.
“For no one can lay a foundation other than the one which is [already] laid, which is Jesus Christ. But if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, each one’s work will be clearly shown [for what it is]; for the day [of judgment] will disclose it, because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality and character and worth of each person’s work. [2 Cor 5:10] If any person’s work which he has built [on this foundation, that is, any outcome of his effort] remains [and survives this test], he will receive a reward. But if any person’s work is burned up [by the test], he will suffer the loss [of his reward]; yet he himself will be saved, but only as [one who has barely escaped] through fire. [Job 23:10]”
1 Corinthians 3:11-15 AMP
The Lord has brought about great political upheaval and change and the enemy is shaking. The Lord has brought forth His champions in the earth to do mighty things. We are entering into a time of great reformation, perhaps even a Revolution in the sense that old systems in the church, government, business, technology, information, industry, education, healthcare, etc. are being transformed into something new. Old structures and old systems that don’t work anymore will be torn down and new ones will be built up very quickly.
“There is a season (a time appointed) for everything and a time for every delight and event or purpose under heaven— A time to be born and a time to die; A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted. [Heb 9:27] A time to kill and a time to heal; A time to tear down and a time to build up.”
Ecclesiastes 3:1-3 AMP
Nations will come into divine alignment as the Lord has raised up those He has chosen to speak peace and order. Don’t be alarmed by things you see and hear. Trust in Me, says the Lord, and you shall see what My hand will do. The enemy tries to bring great fear and dread, but his plans shall not be. Do not rely on what you see, but look to Me. Look to My Word, which I prepared for you thousands of years ago. In it is Wisdom and Truth and Life. It is your Sword and your Power. It is what you need in this hour. It will bring healing, it will bring life. It will give you discernment and deliverance from strife. It will lead you and guide you, for I AM the Word. I AM the Good Shepherd whom you must follow. I will lead you beside still waters and in paths of righteousness. I will refresh you and restore you, and keep you from evil. I prepare a table before you in the presence of your enemies. Lean into Me and into My promises. Vengeance is Mine and I will repay. Forgive your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you. I AM the Righteous Judge and I will repay as I see fit. Righteousness and Justice are the foundations of My throne. Justice is coming for those who won’t repent. Stay humble and stay in prayer. I AM the One who will repair. Seek after Me, and love Me with all your heart, with all of your mind, and with all of your strength.
“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”
2 Chronicles 7:14 NKJV
