In This Season

Ecclesiastes 3:1-2 (NIV?)
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: a time to be born and a time to die.

I believe God chooses specific individuals to live during specific seasons. I believe “in the beginning” God intended that a man named Noah would have the determination to build an ark. I believe God knew David would be watching over his father’s sheep long before anyone imagined there would be an Israel, and Israel would need a king. I believe God looked across the span of time and called our names to stand today for His purposes—and He has given us everything we need to lead godly lives in this season. We won’t be held accountable for what we would have done had we been Noah’s neighbors or David’s advisors. Our responsibility is this season. What do we do with that? First, let’s invite people to the cross of Jesus Christ because it represents the power of God to redeem and transform a life. Then, let’s be unrelenting, unapologetic ambassadors for Jesus, even when others are silent. There are no insignificant people in God’s plans for humanity. This is our time. Let’s not hide our reality or deny our truth. Let’s stand up for Jesus during our season in the earth.

THINK ABOUT IT
Be determined to be the person God created you to be. He has a purpose for all of us during this specific season. His timing and plans are perfect.

PRAYER
Heavenly Father, my presence here is ordained by You, and I want to be faithful to You during all my days. Give me boldness to invite others to come to Jesus at the foot of the cross. Give me courage to speak for You, even when others remain silent. In Jesus’ name, amen.
