So, how do we know when it is time? Before we worry about that, let’s just rejoice that the time is provided for. God has everything done. Everything laid out and in order. And there is a time for everything. So how do we know when it is time? We get understanding.

We have to be careful that we do not just take an attitude of what will be will be! Saying, “After all God has everything planned already, and we can do nothing to change them.” Isaiah says in chapter 65:11, you have forsaken the Lord and His Temple and worship gods of “Fate” and “Destiny.” God wants us to discover the times.

No one knows what day Jesus will return, but He did say that we would be able to read the times and be ready. So if we can be prepared for even that which is hidden, isn’t it possible for us to know when it is time, or how to align ourselves with the time of His deliverance on a promise.

For instance, God says, “When you seek me will your whole heart, you will find me.” That tells us when! Every promise God makes, we can be sure He will keep. We just need to get ourselves up close and personal with God and start to get excited about the times. The times when He fulfills His promises for our lives.

In Mark 3:26, we are told that when Satan rises against himself, he can not stand. So, we need to ask God to cause confusion in the enemies ranks so that he begins to work against himself. When we see that happening, we can begin to shout for it is time for his demise!

Instead of believing that what God has said to you will never happen, begin to declare that the time is coming. God has promised it, and I am ready. No matter what may be going on in your life, there is something in the Word of God that will cover it. Seek Him for wisdom, and you will see, what will bring about change and what God is going to do to take care of it. Don’t just wait until it is time, move toward the time. Many people are just waiting for a last minute opportunity when Jesus comes. They think they can live any way they want but they can’t. They need to get ready for the time now.

Look at it this way. In a job, there are times when they do evaluations for raises. But, if you determine that you are going to get that raise early, you can set your heart to seek the Lord and work in such a way, that they feel like you should get the raise early. See, you have brought the time to a different place in time.

Actually, the majority of God’s promises to us today are already set to be fulfilled, they are just waiting for us to understand and receive. Some people say, well if God wants me saved, He will do it in His time. But the truth is He has set a time…It is whenever we call.

So don’t sit and allow the enemy to discourage you or fool you into thinking that things are just the way they are, until God decides to do something. He has decided, He is only waiting for us to agree.
