“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:” Ecclesiastes 3:1 KJV.
Everything has its own season, and time is also allocated to purpose. This is a law of life you must know and use to build your life and destiny. Time is not just a ticking clock; it is a spiritual currency assigned to purpose. When you are in a difficult or disadvantaged season, like Joseph in the prison of Egypt (Genesis 39:20–23), do not despair. Instead, use that season to grow, learn, and prepare for what’s ahead. Joseph’s time in prison was part of his preparation for palace leadership (Genesis 41:14–40). Jesus Himself experienced seasons. There was a time when He could not be touched (Luke 13:31 32) and a time when He willingly gave Himself to be arrested (Luke 22:53). God works in seasons, and knowing this gives peace in trials and patience in delay.
Never envy someone who is in their season of breakthrough, for your time will come. Just as David moved from the wilderness to the throne in God’s time (2 Samuel 5:3–4), so will you rise when your time is ripe. Likewise, don’t judge or mock those in a season of hardship, God may be shaping them for greatness. When Shimei cursed David during his flight from Absalom (2 Samuel 16:5–13), David endured it with humility, trusting in God's justice and timing. Don’t say someone is going through a challenge because of their sin; you may not know the dealings of God to make them great (Job 42:10). Purpose-driven living requires discerning the times and seasons and committing every moment to God’s plan (1 Chronicles 12:32). Don't waste your season, whether it is pruning or promotion, let it work for your good (Romans 8:28).
Prophetic word: I prophesy over your life today, in the name of Jesus, that your times and seasons are under divine control. You have not been forgotten. Though your night season seemed long, your morning is breaking forth with light (Psalms 305b). I declare that this season is working for your good, shaping your strength, refining your character, and preparing you for divine elevation. Just as Joseph was moved from the prison to the palace in a day, I decree that your sudden turnaround is at hand. The delay you’ve faced is not denial; it is divine orchestration. Your appointed time of favour has come, and no power shall hinder it. I declare that your life shall no longer be marked by comparison or frustration. You shall walk in the beauty of God’s perfect timing, for He makes all things beautiful in its season (Ecclesiastes 3:11). Grace and wisdom shall guide you, and you shall see the redemption of lost time. In the name of Jesus, step into your season of fulfilment. Amen!
Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for being the God of seasons and the Lord of my times. I surrender to Your perfect timing and align myself with Your divine purpose. In seasons of trial, give me grace to endure and wisdom to grow. In seasons of waiting, help me to trust and prepare. Deliver me from the spirit of envy, haste, and comparison. I declare that my time of favour, elevation, and fulfilment will not be delayed. Lord, make me like the sons of Issachar, discerning the times and knowing what to do (1 Chronicles 12:32). Redeem my wasted time, restore what was lost, and usher me into the season You have prepared for me. In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen.
