Season, Time and Reason (Purpose) 10-23-25

The Word of God says: To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven (Ecclesiastes 3:1). After my time was up to move from Greensboro, the next season was already ordained (ordered) by the Lord (Psalm 119:133). There were more physical challenges (afflictions) that also affected my emotions. But, by the grace of God despite whatever came and still come, I am still able to do the work of the ministry in whatever way the Holy Spirit leads.

Being in Lindenwold almost four years has also been a blessing. I am closer in proximity to my immediate family of whom some have been available to assist me when necessary. God has given me bonus family and many others who call me Ms. B., godmother, Minister Betty, Minister B, BB, Evangelist, Prophetess.

SEASON- 

My continued season to write and minister to the needs of others in various ways and to another level is NOW, and as the Holy Spirit leads me to the right places and right people I am available -My LOGO “Send me Lord, I’ll Go” (Isaiah 6:8).

For a little more than a year, I have been actively involved with Lindenwold’s senior program and little did I know how the Lord would have me to be part of a wonderful group of people who are getting out and keeping it moving, which gives them and me a better quality of life. I am also involved in most events that take place where I live.

TIME- 

It was time to move on; I did not jump ahead of myself. How did I know when the time was right? Because God opened doors that no one could shut and He opens doors that no one can open. I knew in my spirit because being in tune to and knowing His voice had been an integral part of my life for many years.

REASON (Purpose)- 

God has a plan for us, but we must be obedient. We don’t know when the time will come for us to minister in the grace (ability) given to us for our specific call. However, for me I love what Paul said to Timothy: But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry. (2 Timothy 4:5).

The KEY to the SEASON is to make sure the harvest is ripe “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few” (Matthew 9:37a) and that you have been equipped to minister effectively.  All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

The KEY to the TIME is to make sure the timing is right! Whatever your ministry is, wait on it (Romans 12:7). Rome wasn’t built in a day.

The KEY to the REASON (Purpose) is to understand that God has a purpose for each of our lives, but we must TRUST GOD with a all our hearts and do not lean to our own understanding. It takes faith- you will not understand what the Lord is doing, but ultimately that’s where faith becomes action (Hebrews 11:1, 6) that’s why it is absolutely necessary to trust Him with all our hearts, not half trust by telling the Lord to show me a sign The sign is THE word TRUST/FAITH.

ELEMENT –Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass. (Psalm 37:5).

WAIT on God. But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint (Isaiah 40:31). Wait on the Lord; e of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the Lord! (Psalm 27:14).
