Something to Ponder

In this verse, the word season doesn’t refer to a time of year; it refers to our emotional state. To be prepared “in season and out of season” is to be ready whether we feel like it or not. If we only ever do what we feel like doing, we may do nothing, forever and ever. There are unemployables in the spiritual domain—spiritually decrepit people who refuse to do anything unless they are supernaturally inspired. The proof that we are rightly related to God is that we do our best whether we feel inspired or not.

One of the great dangers is making a fetish of rare moments. When the Spirit of God gives you a time of inspiration and insight, do you say, “Now I’ll always be like this”? You won’t; God will make sure of it. Such times are entirely a gift from him. You can’t give them to yourself. If you say that your plan is always to be your best, you become an intolerable burden on God. It’s as though you’re telling him that you’ll never do anything unless he keeps you consciously inspired.

If you make a god of your times of inspiration, the Lord God will fade out of your life and never come back—not until you do the duty that lies nearest. This is how you show him you’ve committed to doing his will, in season and out.

Wisdom from Oswald: God does not further our spiritual life in spite of our circumstances, but in and by our circumstances.

Scripture Thought for the Day

Comments

• Lylla: Lylla spoke to a lady at the laundromat this past week. She asked the lady what she would do if she didn’t have the laundromat and no power to operate the machines. This question started an hour long conversation about future prophectic events. It’s amazing how the Lord uses Lylla to impact people.
• Comment from YouTube on the Jeremiah series: This teaching is eye opening what I will maybe have to live through in the tribulations. I hope I have enough oil in my lamp.

Prayer Requests

• Norma: Norma had a fall and had to have surgery on her right hip. Though she is in the hospital, she is still sharing booklets. Please pray for her.
