Time and Season
Ecclesiastes 3:1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
God in His sovereignty has created everything in this world according to its time and season, the verses in Ecclesiastes 3 express a divine order of things into which one must plug his life in order to enjoy the contentment that comes from knowing that God has all things under control.
Apart from the natural process which God has established in this world that coordinate man's life which are, a time to be born, a time to die, a time to plant, and a time to harvest etc, so also God establish spiritual processes which coordinates our life towards His will.
Out of His infinite benevolence after the fall of man, He sent His only son to die for our sin, and by this, man became redeemed back to God from the world of sin.
Anyone who has identified with Christ, to them, God revealed His will to guide and direct their path according to time and season.
As a believer, God occasionally program your life to some time and season, He gives us these seasons to build up and sanctify us. We all endure most of all of these seasons because God wills us to go through that which He has laid upon our lives
In all circumstances, God sets forth season after season just as the flowers grow and the leaves fall.
God does what He does without us knowing the entire meaning of it all. God makes everything in season beautiful (Ecclesiastes 3:11), even in the darkest of seasons. Our fears tell us that we cannot manage this difficult season, in turn, we should give up. But as Galatians 6:9 states, “And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.”
God indirectly took Joseph to Egypt for a purpose through the wicked influence of His brothers, and it came another season that God brought Him out of prison to be a prime minister.
The time and season of God for our life may not seems palatable to us as humans, but we must understand that God has all in His control and we must trust Him for an expected end.
Comparing your season to someone else's can lead to great disappointment, don't do it!, each and everyone of us has different time and season, yours may be delayed while some others may come quicker than expected
All you have to do in all these is to trust God and be patient enough to hear from Him.
God is in control of your life, if you are in a season of life that seams terrible, don't lose hope, God is in control.
If you are in a season of greatness, peace and joy, don't forget God the source of all things. Anyone who forgets Him can not avoid to experience a season they never prayed for.
In all of your time and season, always remember, God is in control of all.
God bless you.
