Set Time

Ps.119:¹²⁶ “Lord, it is time for you to act, for these evil people have violated your instructions.” (emphasis added)

Today, we will go back to our final thought from yesterday that flowed from Ps.105:⁴⁴ “When the time was right, He gave them land from other nations and they took possession of the wealth of the peoples” (The Voice, NRSV, emphasis added). You may be wondering how because when you drive around, you see that the houses are taken, and you get depressed. God says, when you see the houses are taken, begin to praise Him. “…He gave them land from other nations and they took possession of the wealth of the peoples”, that is the assurance we have. Someone reading this today is probably thinking, that is not even fair, why will God do that? When you see Him, you can query Him. In the meantime, those of us who believe Him will receive all these things, in Jesus Name.

Gal.6:⁹ “So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.” Are you tired and weary and feeling like giving up? God is saying to you today, if you do not give up, you are going to reap your harvest. The harvest is here. The lyrics of a popular Yoruba song state that, ‘not knowing the time is what troubles humanity. But my times are in the hands of the Lord.’ It is not knowing the time, that makes us weary and tired. This and that has happened to such and such, when will it be my time? Ps.31:¹⁵ “My times are in your hands” (emphasis added). Your times are in God’s hands, and they are secure. Nobody can snatch it from His hands. He is the eternal God so do not panic. You may still be wondering; my times are in God’s hands but when will it be my time? Well, I was minding my business like a Lagos boy, God breathes upon me and said I should say to you, if you will receive it, your time has come in the Name of Jesus.

Ps.102:¹³ “Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.” (KJV). It will take God’s mercy. You have been asking, when will I hear children crying in my house? In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, your time has come. I am just an errand boy, but if you will release your faith, the set time that will change your story is upon you, in the Name of Jesus. Chronos and Kairos; the former refers to chronological or sequential time, while the latter signifies a proper or opportune time for action. Chronos, you are chasing after it, but you cannot run from the set time. The key thing is, when the set time comes, your faith or your lack of faith cannot stop it. Ask Abraham and Sarah. You may feel that you do not have the faith required, in the Name of Jesus, God will override your faith and bring your miracle. Something happens that changes the game entirely, it is called grace. Mercy will speak for you and favour will open doors for you whether you qualify or not. It is time for favour.

Prayer: Lord, it is time for You to act, this negative situation has violated your instruction for too long. Arise and have mercy on me, for this is my set time, in Jesus Name. Amen!
