(Eccl 3:1 NKJV) To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:
Seasons are a very important way that God moves in our lives. Learning to recognize these seasons… the end of one and the beginning of another, is critical to staying in tune with the timing of God.
We have taught on this in the past, but we’ve learned that it is such a critical matter in the lives of believers, that we want to touch base on it again.
We have witnessed many, many times when a season would come to an end and a person would either fail to recognize it, or refuse to make the change, and the results were never good. Sometimes, in fact, they were disastrous.
Seeing how God has worked in our own lives, through the changing seasons, has taught us to be very watchful and mindful of these changes, and to learn how to recognize when change is coming. This has helped us so much when it comes to staying in the proper timing of God.
Sometimes it can be hard to leave one season and move into another, especially if we are comfortable in the current season, or if moving into the new season means letting go of something that is precious to us. But as we learn to trust God with our lives and we begin to learn how to discern the seasons and flow with the change, letting go will no longer be a struggle for us.
Take a look at your situation today. Is it time to move into a new season? Are you trying with all of your might to hold onto the old, when God wants to bless you with the new?
Trust God. Let go of the old. Embrace the new.
