The essentiality of time cannot be overemphasized. Time is a system created by God, and man was placed within it so that his affairs and journey on earth could be regulated. We see this clearly in Ecclesiastes 3:1–8 (NIV):
“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens…”
God is a Regulator. He regulates our times and seasons. Whenever there seems to be a delay, we naturally begin to ask questions: Why is this taking so long? When will this happen? Why do i feel stocked?
What you need to do life and to fulfil the purpose for which you were created have already been given by God. But what God does is regulate the times and seasons in which those things come into manifestation.
God deals with us within the context of generations, bloodlines, and environments. The enemy understands patterns. He has been navigating the earth long before we appeared. So he has seen your fathers and your fathers’ fathers. He has studied the bloodline, and the patterns present and so he knows the weaknesses that can be exploited.
One of the things the enemy attempts to do is pervert time.
Just as sexual perversion exists, perversion of time also exist. Here the enemy seeks to interfere with what God intends to accomplish in a person's life. Because he studies patterns and seasons, he then identifies what is coming and begin working to prevent it long before its manifestation.
He tries to distort a person causing them to be stock in a season or wasting time on what was never part of their journey, so that when the appointed time and season for what God has ordained finally arrives, that person will be found unprepared.
But what God does in the midst of all this is mind-blowing.
At the very moment the enemy thinks, “I've got this. Look at the way his life is failing,” he forgets that nothing happens outside the authority of the Regulator. God is still regulating how far the enemy can go.
Even in the midst of what looks like delay, God is doing a deeper work.
He is building capacity.
He is building meekness.
He is building strength.
He is developing the inward man so that, at the appointed time, what He has deposited within you can be released.
There are things that cannot be released until the outer man has been dealt with. Until the outer man is shattered, the inward man cannot be fully released.
Sometimes, what looks like a delay is actually a divine reset for every true believer.
Perverted times leads to being stuck in a cycle. It is like being trapped in a loop. You keep trying to move forward, but somehow, year after year, it feels as though you are still standing in the same position.
Let us consider the development of a child.
There is a time to sit.
A time to crawl.
A time to stand.
And also a time to walk.
A child cannot be forced into a season before the capacity for that season has been developed. In the same way, the life of a man is divided into times and seasons.
There is a time to start.
There is a time to wait.
There is a time to move.
There is a time to hold on.
There is a time to let go.
There is a time to walk away.
There is a time to run.
It is time to align yourself with the Regulator and allow Him to regulate your times and seasons according to His purpose.
And for those who have found themselves stuck in a season because of misalignment, unable to discern the changes, or experiencing patterns that seem to have followed their bloodline, God is calling you to bring it before Him.
Ask Him to break every wrong cycle.
Ask Him to remove every yoke.
Ask Him to realign you with His timing.
Because the enemy may understand patterns, but God controls the times and seasons.
Your life is not out of control.
Your season is not outside His reach.
The Regulator is still on the throne.
Stay revived.
