Transcript
- 0:00Four things happen when a season is about to change.
- 0:03When a season is about to change in your life, number one, there
- 0:07is an unusual desire and an unusual grace to pray.
- 0:12An unusual desire, an unusual grace to pray, especially to
- 0:17pray alone. Corporate prayer is wonderful,
- 0:21but you sense a grace pulling you, pulling you away from the
- 0:27crowd, away from activities, and you find God drawing you alone.
- 0:32There are things he wants to show you alone, the grace to
- 0:36pray. And for many of us, when you get
- 0:39to that point, Satan brings a counter destruction, legitimate
- 0:43reasons. And then you find out seasons
- 0:46are passing and the grace to praise boiling within you, but
- 0:49you are not able to take advantage of it.
- 0:51When the season passes, the grace lifts and then you don't
- 0:55know what has happened again. Hallelujah.
- 1:00Is somebody learning now? Yes #2 an unusual grace to give.
- 1:07When a season is about to change, there is an unusual
- 1:12grace to give. It's true, it's true.
- 1:15Sacrificial giving is like a grace rest on you and at that
- 1:20point it's a seed. You can give anything.
- 1:22Sometimes we even question if you are not being manipulated.
- 1:25It's not about the giving. These are indicators of seasons
- 1:29#3 when a season is about to change, there is unusual angelic
- 1:35and demonic activities, two of them together.
- 1:38Because you see, the angels signify revelations and when
- 1:42demonic spirits see angelic movements, they know that they
- 1:45excel in strength and the answer to the Word of God and the
- 1:48answer to seasons, Immediately you find out that all kinds of
- 1:52demonic attacks, they come using offence, they come using anger,
- 1:57hatred, dreams, slumber, compromise.
- 2:01Anything the devil can bring to abort that season, that's his
- 2:05desire. And if you do not have the
- 2:07discernment and the staying power, you will lose that
- 2:11season. The fourth thing that happens,
- 2:13in fact, truly there are many, but let me try and give you one
- 2:16more. The fourth thing that happened
- 2:17when a season is coming is God will usually send a word because
- 2:23a word is the key that opens up seasons.
- 2:25He will send the word. It will come in dreams, it will
- 2:28come through prophecies, it will come through a sermon.
- 2:30As I'm speaking now, seasons cannot open outside of the word
- 2:34of God. There must be a preceding word,
- 2:36a preceding word that comes from God.
- 2:39I can tell you based on the reference of this test, some of
- 2:42you right now as you are hearing me, you don't need a prophetic
- 2:45word. You know seasons are changing by
- 2:47what I'm telling you now. You know it, you know it.
- 2:50The grace to give when others are sleeping.
- 2:52You are waking up and you've been asking God what is it?
- 2:55And can I tell you this, Sometimes the prayers have no
- 2:58prayer points. God just says pray.
- 3:01He won't tell you why pray. You are praying in tongues.
- 3:03OK, give me a clue Lord, let me understand.
- 3:06He doesn't want you to be distracted.
- 3:08If He shows you the warfare that your prayer is dealing with,
- 3:11fear will not even allow you continue.
- 3:13He will blind you from the vision and just allow you to
- 3:16focus in prayer. It is true.
- 3:19It is true is after the prophecy has been birthed, then He will
- 3:25now show you what we're dealing with.
- 3:29That's how ministries are birthed.
- 3:31That's how dimensions are sustained.
- 3:33That's how people emerge. But most believers are dull of
- 3:37both hearing and training. They do not know.
- 3:40So when seasons happen like this, they just know that I mean
- 3:43an unusual season. I don't know what it's about.
- 3:46And then they lose the season. And then it moves like the hand
- 3:49of a clock. Years become wasted.
- 3:52Years turn to decades. And then sometimes we pray and
- 3:55say, God, but are you not faithful?
- 3:56And God will say, I came many times.
- 3:59I came and I knocked, I came and I knocked.
- 4:02But because you've not been strained to see the light,
- 4:04listen, how do you think the magi got to snow?
- 4:08Thy was Jesus. There was a * that's that
- 4:11appeared according to a certain season.
- 4:14And the magi came when they told Herod, he said we're looking for
- 4:18this and that Herod said, all right, you go when you find the
- 4:21child, tell me. And then he called his
- 4:23astrologers. He said go and open the book,
- 4:25check what was the season for the manifestation of the
- 4:29Messiah. And they said truly, based on
- 4:31what they saw, this is the time, he said.
- 4:33Find, kill the children, find everybody.
