SAME God – The God of The SEASONS: Living Beyond The Limitations Of The WEATHER!
“While the EARTH remaineth, SEEDTIME and HARVEST, and COLD and HEAT, and SUMMER and WINTER, and DAY and NIGHT shall not cease” Genesis 8:22.
Are you been limited by the various life seasons? Do you think the weather you find yourself is limiting you? Do you think the AUTUMN, WINTER, SPRING and SUMMER weathers are having effect on you? Probably the dry season alias HARMATTAN or RAINFALL seasons as in some areas are your problems? Probably the seasons of holidays as – CHRISTMAS, EASTER, SPECIAL GOVERNMENT HOLIDAYS, OTHER RELIGIOUS and NON-RELIGIOUS HOLIDAYS and such like. Are they your profound noted and pointed asking for distress and worries?
Have you ever given a thought about the difference between the THERMOMETER and THERMOSTAT? That the first (THERMOMETER) absorb temperature of the surrounding weather to define itself while the second (THERMOSTAT) is not affected by the surrounding weather but instead detect and define its statesquo without external influence.
It thus mean therefore that your life DEFINITION are the choices that are within you – for you to either allow the Holy Spirit within you by God’s indwelling WORD to DEFINE you in order to thrive and be fruitful meaningfully and purposefully; and to fulfil who God have made you be in Christ Jesus stead; and that saves you, instead of making excuses and complaints of every weather and seasons to be your reason of subjection to the elements of this world – be it of natural causes, demonic causes, man-made and make-believe or other factors. The choice is always yours to RESPOND thoughtfully or otherwise REACT ignorantly.
The Almighty God, the creator of all weather and seasons changes not, and have made each to be fruitful, productive and fulfilling respectively. He made all things beautiful in creation and have planted within each man (non-gender) with eternity (eternal spirit) within to give the enabling to connect to God for the very best in life. You can either act correspondingly to THRIVE and be FULLFIL or be gazing at the weather and seasons as the DISCIPLES of Christ Jesus once did and do nothing until the seasons and weather overwhelmed you. And thereafter you can blame no one of your nonchalant behaviour and attitude (conduct) for gaze watching instead of exercising the will to create, innovate, explore and initiate your own path of happiness and FULFILMENT within God’s will of grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead.
I employ you today to wake up and determine not to allow any form of life weather and seasons to define you in becoming who you born of God to be in Christ Jesus stead in doing LIFE and LIVING GODLY.
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
“While the EARTH remaineth, SEEDTIME and HARVEST, and COLD and HEAT, and SUMMER and WINTER, and DAY and NIGHT shall not cease” Genesis 8:22.
“Jesus Christ THE SAME yesterday, and to day, and for ever” Hebrews 13:8.
“He has made everything BEAUTIFUL and appropriate in its time. He has also planted ETERNITY [a sense of divine purpose] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end” Ecclesiastes 3:11 (Amplified).
“And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. 10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; 11 which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye GAZING up into heaven? THIS SAME Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven” Acts 1:9-11.
“Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a CHILD, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all; 2 but is UNDER tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father. 3 Even so we, when we were children, WERE IN BONDAGE UNDER THE ELEMENTS Of THE WORLD: 4 but when the FULNESS of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5 to REDEEM them that were under the law, that we might RECEIVE the adoption of sons. 6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. 7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ” Galatians 4:1-7.
