His Purpose in Our Season
Today, I was thinking on the verse that says, “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.” (Ecclesiastes 3:1) when The Holy Spirit whispered, “Look up the Hebrew word that was translated ‘Purpose’.”
Now the word Purpose in English is rather a boring word which means, “the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists.”
But Beloveds, in Hebrew the word translated purpose is “Chephets” meaning “delight, pleasure, desire, longing.” Wow, that changes things, doesn’t it?
There is a time for every DELIGHT under heaven! NOW is that time! Now is the time, for Jesus has come to bring us LIFE and LIFE abundantly and it is the Father’s GOOD PLEASURE to give you the Kingdom! For He DELIGHTS in you!
I also heard your answers to prayer shall be multiplied EXPONENTIALLY! (Of or increasing by extraordinary proportions!)
“Beloved. What have you been longing for, what is your pleasure, what do you desire, and what brings you delight?
I came to bring you LIFE and life abundantly. Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good PLEASURE to give you The Kingdom.
There is a set time for every answer to prayer, for every longing of the heart, for your desires to see fruition in The Kingdom. So do not cast aside your confidence.
You cry out to Me in your trouble, and I bring you out of your distress. I AM He who calms the storm, so that its waves are still.
You shall rejoice because of My Shalom Peace over your life. I shall guide you to your DESIRED HAVEN.
I AM that Haven, Beloved, I AM your Refuge and your Strength. I delight in you and I shall do all your desire according to My Word.
Will you believe Me for all things? Even now, I AM bending down to you and listening for your words of faith.
You shall no more be termed Forsaken, and your land shall no more be termed Desolate, but you shall be called “MY DELIGHT IS IN HER.”
You are My Bride, you are My Excellent One, in whom is ALL MY DELIGHT! I show you the Path of Life; in My Presence is fullness of joy; at My right hand are pleasures forevermore.
This is the season and this is the Time of the Desires of your Heart to be fulfilled. Time is short. Don’t let the enemy steal your Hope, but declare your Inheritance in Me!
For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom you cry out, “Abba, Father.”
The Spirit Himself bears witness with your spirit that you are My Child, My Heir. I know this world is hard right now. But never forget Whose you are.
My Plans for you are for good. I delight in delighting you, My Bride. Expect the unexpected! I AM able to do exceedingly abundantly beyond all that you can ask or think. This is the season of Your King’s Delight in His Bride!
Your LONGING shall be satisfied. Does not My Word say, “Delight yourself in the LORD, and He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD; trust in Him, and He will do it!”
Oh yes, My Child. For just as rain and snow fall from heaven and do not return without watering the earth, making it bud and sprout, and providing seed to sow and food to eat, so My Word that proceeds from My mouth will not return to Me empty, but it will accomplish ALL MY PLEASURE and it will prosper and MULTIPLY where I send it.
Listen to what the Spirit is saying, My Bride! I AM opening the windows of heaven to pour out upon you a blessing you will not even have room enough to contain!
Grace upon Grace has come from My Fullness! I have felt your Delight in Me and My Delight in you shall MANIFEST and be multiplied EXPONENTIALLY, in manifold and miraculous ways!
I AM able to do IMMEASURABLY MORE than you can ask or think according to the Power in you! You will indeed go out with joy and be led forth in peace, the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands!”
