Day 200: God Has Set Eternity In The Heart Of Man
Read: John 17:1 - 12, Ecclesiastes 3:1 - 15
Well my friends, a special time has arrived for me. It has been a long
time coming. I guess that you might (at least I do) as Kairos time -
God's special time and I desire to celebrate it with you all. Today represents the revelation writing of my 300th devotion in a row. That is right! For the last 300 days I have gotten up at 0 dark 30 to consider what the Lord has done for me and mine. It is now 300 devotions in 300 days. Praise be to God for this amazing moment. It blows me away that God can use me, trust me to share His Word with the world community. So it seems only fitting that our offering
today is on time - God's and ours: “Father, the hour has come; glorify Your Son,..."
'After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: “Father,
the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you.'
Consider for yourselves just what this verse is saying to you. Consider
the timing of it all. 'After Jesus said this', but what did He just say
(16:32,33): "Behold, an hour is coming, and has already come, for you to
be scattered, each to his own home, and to leave Me alone; and yet I am
not alone, because the Father is with Me. These things I have spoken to
you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have
tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world.” Our Hour for
scattering is here, His Hour for overcoming! Our hour for gathering together!
In the world we have tribulation - that is true. Today is unquestionably a time for that. Tribulation is timeless, Jesus said that. Our time for scattering is
still ever present in this day and age in response to that tribulation.
There is always a time for scattering. But God and Jesus gives us a
chance to change this, to bridge the gap from this very moment to the
moment that we struggle to realize - that moment which is God's time for us to 'overcome the world' giving us such timeless tribulation - thanks be to God! Ecclesiastes 3:11 "11 He has made everything appropriate in its time.
He has also set eternity in their heart, ..' All we have to do, is pray
for God awareness to recognize it and seize it, make it ours!
Consider well, the magnitude of the challenge that God has placed before mankind at this moment: recognizing that there is a time for scattering and tribulation and a time for gathering ourselves together in prayer and overcoming. There is a
right moment, a Kairos moment, God's special moment, God's appointed
moment when we need to say as Jesus did: After (your name) said this,
he/she looked up to heaven and prayed "Father, the time has come,
Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify You through me!" The time
has come for me to prayerfully finish that verse - 'through me'. But it
is not the end of time, God must continue to be glorified, yea unto the
end of the age! He has gifted us eternity!
Let Us Pray: Today, let your prayer be a
personalized consideration and reflection of Ecclesiastes 3:1 - 15 and
the High Priestly Prayer from John. Place yourself in the moment, the
Kairos moment, God's one and only perfect moment: "“Father, the hour has
come; glorify Your Son, that the Son may glorify You, ....." Amen Amen
& Amen
