Tag: What the Bible says about seasons in our lives

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-28-16

Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NKJV) 3 To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:

When seasons change we must learn to adjust to that change. As I look out my window this afternoon I see how the leaves on the trees are all gone.

That same tree that was recently full and lush with beautiful leaves now stands bare. In the western hemisphere, the winter season is here. The days will be cold and we will have to adjust accordingly to the change that has come.

And so it is with the seasons in our lives. Some things will come and bring a different way of doing things. If we don’t accept them and adjust our life to them, we will have a difficult time getting through that new season.

It all comes down to learning to let go, moving on and adjusting accordingly. God will help us in this if we embrace the change of the season and let Him show us what adjustments we need to make.

Don’t be afraid, and don’t worry. It will be beautiful once again. Just in a different way.

Ecclesiastes 3:11 (NKJV) 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end.

Bible Verse of The Day – 2-3-15

John 3:30 (NKJV) 30 He must increase, but I must decrease.

These are John’s very words to his disciples. John was baptizing people when Jesus came, and Jesus and His disciples were baptizing people as well.

John’s disciple’s didn’t understand why all the people were going to Jesus to get baptized.

John explained to his disciple’s that it was his time to decrease, and that Jesus must increase.

It’s important for all of us to know when to back off, just like John shows us here, and to know the timing of things; when to step up to the plate and when to back away and let someone else step in.

Do we always want to back away? Sometimes it can be very hard to back away.

We know of a situation where someone did not back away in the right timing and ruined something that could have been great.

This is what happens when we get our grip on something and we are too stubborn or prideful to loosen it.

If this teaching is speaking to you today, you are struggling with backing away to let someone else step up to the plate and take over, look at this verse and think about John. If he didn’t decrease, and let Jesus increase and do what He needed to do, he would have messed things up big time.

Back away, loosen the grip and let someone else take over. It’s their time.
