Let
us look at RIGHT NOW! Where are you... NOW!
My husband compliments me by saying that I am
“flexible” & “stretchable” .Its funny, cause now I
look very stretchable
We
have moved a total of 35 times in our 47 years of marriage, so lots of times I
didn’t know WHERE I was! Different friends, climates, furniture, cultures, foods, holidays,
languages, accents, churches & homes. Even the pets were always getting shifted
around… from dogs to elephants!
After
getting married in
There
are THREE types of “TIMES”
or “seasons” in Greek…
1. Chronos time = daily
life…clock ticks…sun comes up, goes down..
You sleep, wake
up…summer, winter…etc… YOU GOT IT?
Most folks are in CHRONOS
TIME right now…physically & spiritually….
It can be called: waiting time…boring time…preparing time
2.
KAIROS time:
IT MEANS, the NOW TIME... CRITICAL TIME…
The Opportune time,
the make a MOVE time!…
If you MISS THIS
TIME…you LOSE the chance.
Many
prophets are telling us that after years of prayer and planting… God’s HARVEST
is coming SOON…THE KAIROS TIME!
Hearing God’s VOICE is absolutely ESSENTIAL to
know when and where to Make a move. A lot of us have
MISSED Kairos times along the way.
TRUE
ALL THIS WAS a CHRONOS TIME……
I
took a walk one evening... and THOUGHT I heard the Holy Spirit saying: “See
that person? They need Prayer now… go
and talk to them…”
I don’t even know them….In
Be lonely or something…”
SO
I DIDN’T DO IT.
I waited a few days….until I felt really guilty!!!
I
decided to be a REALLY good Christian, & even
BAKE cookies and bring them over, and introduce myself and THEN I would OBEY
GOD! It was really BETTER this way, and
I was glad I had waited awhile. She thanked me for the cookies and then I told
her that I had wanted to come over a few days before… She told me she had been
crying and needed prayer a lot then… BUT NOW she was fine and didn’t need
anybody! I left... never to see her
again. OOHhhh
SORRY LORD I
missed it!
HERE IS THE
THING! While we are going thru the LONG
WAITING CHRONOS TIMES OF LIFE………….God is preparing
somebody else to meet us during their trial. HE IS ARRANGING THIS, and DEPENDING ON US
TO HEAR HIS VOICE and OBEY. AND THIS IS God’s KAIROS
TIME,
How often we have missed those times……KAIROS, NOW TIMES don’t have to be HUGE, INTERNATIONAL,
EVENTS! EVERY SOUL IS A HUGE EVENT TO
If your CHRONOS time is a FIERY TRIAL….THEN HE HAS SOMEBODY IN THAT FIRE with you……To comfort
you? Well, yes, of course. But also, he has somebody there for YOU to
minister HIS LOVE to. It’s KAIROS
TIME A lot more than we think! LOOK AT TODAY!
3.
LAST is: PLEROO
TIME means COMPLETED, FULFILLED, SUCCESS!
This is the real challenge! Many fail in the Kairos
times. But until the day the Lord says “WELL DONE, GOOD & FAITHFUL SERVANT” we have not really entered the Pleroo time
EXAMPLE:
a) A farmer plants the wheat, or rice.
He waits & prepares..Chronos
TIME
b) It’s RIPE!
READY for HARVEST! RAIN IS
COMING! KAIROS
TIME! It’s a time of anxious movement..sometimes dangerous! When nations go thru Kairos
times there are wars! Struggles! - The Kairos times never mean success. Many GIVE UP THE STRUGGLE
during Kairos times & lose it.
c)
Let’s make it thru to the PLEROO TIME That’s when the wheat is safely stored in
the barn….or better yet,
a nice hot loaf of home made bread, with butter and jam!
