Transitioning into your Harvest Field Transitioning into your Harvest Field Rev. Brian Rev. Brian Daehn December 3 December 3, 2023 Daehn , 2023
Transitioning into your Harvest Field Transitioning into your Harvest Field Acts 17:26-28a 26And He has made from one[a]blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundariesof their dwellings,27so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope (reach up) for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us; for in Him we live and move and have our being (NKJV)
Understanding Gods Appointed Times Understanding God s Appointed Times A.Men of Issachar understood the appointed times & what best to do ( 1 Chron.12:32) 32of the sons of Issachar who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do (NKJV) We must Align ourselves with God s Time/Season (Keeping in step with the Holy Spirit) ( 1 Chron.12:32 12:32) Too often Godly Leaders and People desire God to work into or within their own Timetables this often results in little advancement of God s Kingdom Purposes and Spiritual Activity. I believe today it is imperative that we as Godly leaders and people ALIGN ourselves with God and His Timetable/Season. As we do this it will allow us to co-operate with The Lord (Holy Spirit) to develop Divine strategies resulting in Kingdom advancement . B. Daehn

Chronos time is connected to His Logos (Word) Give us this day our Daily Bread 2. Kairos times are connected to His Rhema (Word) Man shall not live by bread alone (Logos), but every Word (Rhema) that proceeds out of the mouth of God. (Grk. Chronos) = normal order of time, chronological time, denoted extent (Grk. Kairos) = opportune time, set time, appointed time, proper time for Note: God Announces His Appointed Times by His servants the Prophets Amos 3:7 Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.

God is God is Nearer Nearer During these Transitionary Moments in Time During these Transitionary Moments in Time Throughout the Bible God ordains special appointed times when He choses to be closer to us. These times necessitate that we diligent seek Him and inquire of the Holy Spirit. Isa 55:6 Seek the LORD while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near.
