Time is of the Essence!
I found this quotation by a young Ted Talk guy, Graham Hill who also said,
“The best stuff in life isn’t stuff at all… relationships, experiences and meaningful work are the staples of a happy life.”
This reminded me of Ecclesiastes 3….
The LORD: “Time is running out for many who do not know their Maker, and who have spurned My Love and desire for fellowship with them.
The Elect are being lured even now as we speak, they are being drawn through circumstances, thru visions and dreams, through the words of friends and fellow workers, through My Words speaking to them in their minds even though they don’t know it’s Me.
Those in dire circumstances and seeing all that is going on are questioning their own belief systems.
Youth — all over The Nations — are restless, seeing all that has and is going on.
They are more exposed to alternative media than the adults due to Social Media, and more time to peruse what is going on, and more aptitude for putting two and two together as you say.
Many are led astray by false stories and those who just want attention, or those who have selfish ambition and will do anything for money.
But many are awake and more than concerned, and they are worried, and need answers that speak the Truth to them.
I AM about to equal the playing field with My Army, that will be empowered with My Spirit of Truth, Light, Love and Power!
Timing is important for all that I do. So I need you, My Beloveds, to be in tune with My Voice, able to hear what I AM saying to you.
I need your attention, more than your works right now. For works not led by Me will be of no use.
Transitioning will bring an opening of many doors of opportunity to fulfill the promises I have made to you!
Nothing can keep you from My Will, if you are in agreement with Me, and willing to do things My Way.
As Heaven comes to earth, there will be demonstrations of Glory with stammering lips and visions of The Kingdom, seeing Angels, and golden Glory falling on even the young children!
Hearts will be totally changed! Kingdom Wind is escalating!
Vision will be greatly increased, and those that have been kept back from this for a time, will suddenly be surprised by the outpouring of My love and power. I have saved the best Wine for last!
Courage will be imparted for all who are willing to do My Will. Be unafraid of the dark forces trying to intimidate and threaten, spiritual or physical!
My Grace will be multiplied to those who have been willing to suffer with Me, and to all who will come and bow before Me in this harvest of souls.
Do not be like the workers who complained they got the same wages as those who worked less hours!
Understand that I need all who will surrender to My Plan. Rewards come with obedience to Me, not according to some merit system for the work you’ve done — but My Grace is way bigger than what you understand!
So don’t look at what is on an other’s plate — but only listen and obey My Voice.
I make beggars from the ash heap to stand before kings and princes. It’s not according to vanity, or intelligence, or other earthly ways of men.
So be very careful to not Judge according to the external appearance of men and women, boys and girls.”
I then I heard in my head an old tune by the Rolling Stones:
“Time Is On My Side”
Time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is
Now you always say
That you want to be free
But you’ll come running back (said you would baby)
You’ll come running back (I said so many times before)
You’ll come running back to me
[Verse 2]
Oh, time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is
You’re searching for good times
But just wait and see
You’ll come running back (I won’t have to worry no more)
You’ll come running back (spend the rest of my life with you, baby)
You’ll come running back to me
[Bridge]
Go ahead, go ahead and light up the town
And baby, do everything your heart desires
Remember, I’ll always be around
And I know, I know
Like I told you so many times before
You’re going to come back, baby
Because I know
You’re going to come back knocking
Yeah, knocking right on my door
Yes, yes!
[Verse 3]
Well, time is on my side, yes it is
Time is on my side, yes it is
‘Cause I got the real love, the kind that you need
You’ll come running back (said you would, baby)
You’ll come running back (I’d always said you would)
You’ll come running back (I won’t have to worry no more)
[Outro]
Yes time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
Time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
Oh, time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
I said, time, time, time is on my side, yes it is
Oh, time, time, time is on my side
Yeah, time, time, time is on my side
I took this like a song from The LORD luring us back into His arms of Love.
Thus the title, Time is of Essence, meaning Time is SHORT.
Time to run home to the Father, like the prodigal son.
So time to repent of anything that’s standing in the way of our intimacy with Him. But also, there are so many under pressure right now due to sickness, pressures of life, work situations, and all that is happening in The Nations.
His Voice: “Run back to My Arms of Love beloveds, for I AM not the harsh taskmaster.
I AM here always waiting for you like the prodigal’s father hoping for his return, because he so loved him.
And it breaks My Heart to see the wounds and sores of affliction the enemy has assaulted you with.
I AM bringing My Healing Salve, My Love and Mercy to all who will receive it, to all who will bend to My will in your lives.
Double-grace will be poured out on the back-slidden and lost for I know the mind control and all the strategies of men and demons that have kept many from being with Me in intimacy.
Don’t think that I AM a harsh taskmaster. Know that I will always take back the one who desires to return to My Arms of love, no matter how far they have strayed from the path intended for them.
Know that I AM Love. I AM Justice. I have seen all the tricks and lies of the enemy, and the blindness that is on the church because of going their own way, instead of My way.
I will destroy all the darkness that has been in My true Church.”
“And the Light shines on in the darkness, for the darkness has never overpowered it [put it out or absorbed it or appropriated it, and is unreceptive to it].” John 1:5 AMPC
“Then Solomon said, The LORD has said that He would dwell in the thick darkness; I have built You a house, [in which the dark Holy of Holies seems] a [fitting] abode for You, a place for You to dwell in forever.” 2 Chronicles 6:1-3 AMPC
“I will lay waste the mountains and hills and dry up all their herbage; I will turn the rivers into islands, and I will dry up the pools. And I will bring the blind by a way that they know not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known. I will make darkness into light before them and make uneven places into a plain. These things I have determined to do [for them]; and I will not leave them forsaken. They shall be turned back, they shall be utterly put to shame, who trust in graven images, who say to molten images, You are our gods.” Isaiah 42:15-17 AMPC
“And I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that it is I, The LORD, the God of Israel, Who calls you by your name…..
……. I form the light and create darkness, I make peace [national well-being] and I create [physical] evil (calamity); I am The LORD, Who does all these things.” Isaiah 45:3,7 AMPC
“Saying to those who are bound, Come forth, and to those who are in [spiritual] darkness, Show yourselves [come into the light of the Sun of righteousness]. They shall feed in all the ways [in which they go], and their pastures shall be [not in deserts, but] on all the bare [grass-covered] hills.” Isaiah 49:9
“And if you pour out that with which you sustain your own life for the hungry and satisfy the need of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in darkness, and your obscurity and gloom become like the noonday.” Isaiah 58:10
“For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and dense darkness [all] peoples, but The LORD shall arise upon you [O Jerusalem], and His glory shall be seen on you.” Isaiah 60:2
“To everything there is a season, and a time for every matter or purpose under heaven: A time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to pluck up what is planted, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to break down and a time to build up, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, a time to get and a time to lose, a time to keep and a time to cast away, a time to rend and a time to sew, a time to keep silence and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace…….
……. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in men’s hearts and minds [a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy], yet so that men cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end……..
…….. I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked, for there is a time [appointed] for every matter and purpose and for every work.
I said in my heart regarding the subject of the sons of men, God is trying (separating and sifting) them, that they may see that by themselves [under the sun, without God] they are but like beasts.
For that which befalls the sons of men befalls beasts; even [in the end] one thing befalls them both. As the one dies, so dies the other. Yes, they all have one breath and spirit, so that a man has no preeminence over a beast; for all is vanity (emptiness, falsity, and futility)! All go to one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again. Who knows the spirit of man, whether it goes upward, and the spirit of the beast, whether it goes downward to the earth?
So I saw that there is nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his own works, for that is his portion. For who shall bring him back to see what will happen after he is gone?” Ecclesiastes 3:1-8,11,17-22 AMPC
