Seasons (kairos)

Picture
The prophetic ministry is undergirded by the concept of seasons. There are two words for the word time:
1. Kronos; physical time, hours, days, months, years
2. Kairos; seasons

The Lord has set seasons to do SPECIFIC THINGS AND REVEAL CERTAIN SCRIPTURAL TRUTHS. 

Where have we come?

According to scripture we have experienced the former rain. James and other places speak of the "former and latter rains." These are real phenomenon according to Israeli life...two rains per year that mark seedtime and harvest...therefore we must see that these RAINS PRECEDE AND ARE CATALYSTS for the change of season. 

This is exciting because this means that preceding every change of season God sends His Rain, to facilitate the objectives of that season. The former rain, breaks down the ground READY FOR SEED. Hosea talks about ploughing the unploughed ground in chapter 6. In every move of God we need the former rain, and we see it THROUGH THE INTERCESSION AND FERVENT PRAYER of faithful remnants throughout scripture and modern times. We see the HOLY SPIRIT help the saints PLOUGH THE GROUND OF THEIR HEARTS...it is a rain...a former rain...it softens...it breaks...the Lord wants to bring a breaking...refer 2 Chronicles 7:14, if they will turn...humble themselves. This is a "former" rain in principle...if we see every MOVE OF GOD in this light...we see something come into the hearts...they see the condition of those, the lands around them...Nehemiah 1 gives us this notion, how God used the 7 days of seeking of God to complete a vision for Jerusalem. 

The "Latter Rain" is the Spirit coming on the growing seeds PREPARING FOR GREAT HARVEST. I believe this is where WE ARE. The seeds, former rains have been sown over the centuries. Old saints, who have gone before us, their prayers are STILL HAVING AN EFFECT IN THE NATIONS. The Latter rain is the VISIBLE SIGN of the FORMER RAIN WORK OF THE SPIRIT OF GOD. It is necessary that we allow the "former rain" season work through our hearts. This is unseen and tough preparation. Yet the visible HARVEST is in accordance to the preparation afforded. 

So where have we come?

We have seen unprecendented moves of God in the last 100 years. Starting with 1904 Welsh Revival, where Evan Roberts prayed for God to come and "bend him." 100, 000 souls came into the Kingdom. In 1906 the Azusa Street Revival came to birth the truths of the Spirit, His Gifts and Ministries, restoring them to the Body...they were always there, but restore a new consciousness of them. In 1939 there was a mighty revival in Point, Hebrides Isles. Then superseded by the 1948-1952 revival centred in Barvas in the Hebrides. At the same time the Latter Rain movement raised consciousness of the Spirit's move over the earth. 1948 seems to be a pivotal year for the restoration of Israel as a nation! It must be connected in some way. 

In the 1960's to the 1980's the Holy Spirit moved over all denominations calling out a remnant of believers. During this time a "Aliyah" was undergone.,..where Israelites have been wooed back to their land. Whilst the Church went through prophetic changes in the 80's and then apostolic in the new decade of the 21st century; I believe that God is going to bring in the Last Harvest...the latter rains ARE CORPORATELY FALLING. Whilst I spoke about the former and latter rains above I am speaking personally and to local/regional areas. This word concerning the "Aliyah" and the moves of the Spirit on messianic/Jesus believers is CONNECTED. 

The two olive trees symbolize the two peoples of covenant...Israel and the Bride of Christ...oil flowing to shine the light. The two witnesses of Revelation 11 having the end time ministry which shall impact the earth. These two witnesses are no other than the Israelites and the Bride. They shall cause awe and respect although will also be persecuted. In those end times. 

So where are we? We are in the kairos where a massive positioning is taking place, bringing us to fullness. This fullness principle is called PLEROMA...and comes in the phrase in the fullness of time. When we see situations come to a head, we are seeing PLEROMA AT WORK. We are seeing God bringing change. When in John 2 Jesus saw the full waterpots they we changed into wine miraculously, how much more we become FULL OF THE SPIRIT, we effect changes on the earth. The fullness of the children of Israel, their growth, prosperity caused them to go out of Egypt to become a nation, how much more the Bride's fullness shall effect massive changes on the earth. This is that Kairos...fullness, it is this season.
