The Move Of God - God’s Time 2 (notes)

The Move Of God - God’s Time 2

God’s Time

  • Is always perfect.
  • Is never late.
  • Changes everything.

The Seasons of God

  • Are the key to making a difference in the world.
  • Are times of refreshing.
  • Will happen while the world experiences stress and turmoil.

Isaiah 60

  • Talks about a time of great glory coming for the people of God.
  • During a time of depression (darkness will cover the earth and dense darkness all people groups).
  • During this season of darkness, the brightness of the Lord will rest on the people of God.
  • Nations will come to our light and kings to the brightness of your rising.

Kairos

  • When time and destiny meet.
  • In every revival time and destiny come together and change everything.
  • Over 100 years ago the Azusa Street revival broke out and today there are over 650 million born again spirit baptized believers in the world.

Time is Kairos which is a season or opportune time. A period of time in which crucial events take place, marked by distinct conditions.

This Age (time)

A critical or decisive point in time, a moment of great importance and significance. A point when something is ready or favorable. An opportunity, a favorable occasion. A certain period of time in which crucial events take place marked by distinct conditions.

Since Israel - (Luke 21:24)

Became a nation we have been living in the last moments of this age.

The times of the Gentiles is the church age.

Acts 1:7-8

  • Jesus said... “It is not for you to know the times (Kairos) or dates the Father has set by His own authority.”
  • But you will receive power after the Holy Ghost comes upon you and you will be witnesses unto Me.

Acts 3:1-4:4

  • How many times did Jesus pass by this man but did not heal him.
  • It was not his time.
  • It was not the time for Jerusalem.
  • 5,000 people believed because of this miracle.
  • One miracle when it is the Kairos, the season of God can change a city.

Jesus Died

  • At the right time (on Passover) which freed us from sin and provided salvation, healing and restoration.
  • Now as God’s children we get in on God’s plan for us and for the Jews and for the world.
  • At the right time Jesus will return and restore everything to its original purpose.

Application

  • When Jesus healed someone or taught a crowd it was at the right time.
  • This is how we should live our lives.

John 5:19

Is it God’s Season for us?

They ask for God to pour out His Holy Spirit upon us, upon this city and upon America!
