Waiting for your Season

If you've been one who has been pressing into the will of God for this Season, then you know that a big part of the Lesson that God has been teaching His people is Waiting. Many of the saints are tired, and about ready to throw in the towel. But saints, trust me when I tell you, that is the last thing that you want to do. God is ready to Turn things Around in a very Supernatural way. He's getting ready to do things that many of us have never seen done before (1Corinthians 2). Therefore, what we're challenged to continue to do is to Wait on the Lord (Psalm 37). However, we want to know exactly what we're waiting for, and what we need to be waiting on the Lord for is our Season.

The God we serve is a God of Timing. When it looks like He's acting arbitrarily, this is far from the case. God is a God of Timing and Specificity. So what we want to learn to do in Waiting on God is to allow the Holy Spirit to place us in a Rhythm, that will coincide with the Divine Timing of the Father. God has a set time for which He has ordained to manifest the plans that He has prepared for His people (Psalm 102). This is your Season. This is what you want to be waiting for. The Waiting on God isn't just waiting for Him to act within His Sovereignty. Yes, that's part of it, but you're waiting for His Set Time to usher in the Season for which He has appointed for your life.

The Bible says in the 6th chapter of Galatians, "let us not be weary in well doing; for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not". Once again, this Due Season that Paul is referring to is Your Season. The Time where God is going to manifest all of the promises for which He has ordained for you. But you see that the rewards of the season are contingent upon your spiritual stamina. The scripture says that we will reap if we faint not. That's why I exhort you saints to Hang in There. Don't give up now. Don't turn back now. Hang in there, and wait for your Season. The key to maintaining spiritual stamina and waiting for your season is Preparation. While you're waiting on God to move, and while you're waiting for the Lord to usher you into your New Season, you have to focus on Preparation. One of the things that's going to disappoint a lot of believers is that when God moves and ushers in the New Season, many of His people won't be prepared. Why? Because there wasn't an anticipation or expectation for the New that God is ready to release. When you're conscious that God is doing something different in your life, and that you know you're not where you want to be nor where God has ordained you to be, you start getting prepared for where God has ordained you to be. That's why complaining and sulking and being discouraged is a waste of time, because that's time and energy that could be invested in further Preparation for where God is taking you. And understand something saints, getting to the Promised Land and staying in the Promised Land are two different things.

If you're a sports fan (and many of you may not be) then you know that Football Season starts in roughly a month. In Preparation for the Season, the teams will have scrimmages and pre-season games, in order to prepare for the upcoming Season. School starts in roughly a month for many students. School supplies and class schedules and tuition fees, all have to be addressed, in order to be adequately Prepared for the upcoming School Season. Let God continue to make Preparations for what He has in store for you. Then you'll have the proper posture and spirit in Waiting for your Season.
