"A Space of Time"

Time cannot be purchased, and once gone, it is gone forever. In His grace God has given us a space of time for repentance, restitution, and restoration. We can see how merciful God has been and have faith that He still has a plan. In fact, it seems our world has become increasingly more wicked and the shedding of innocent blood continues at a horrific rate across our world. 

There seems to be no fear of God, in spite of the obvious signs of the times that we are living in. I typically don’t write in the first person, but this is what God has put on my heart, so I will share these things that have inspired me to pray. Around the time of the 9/11 attack, I had a dream. I was walking barefoot on a train track. I remember looking down at the railroad ties, my feet didn’t hurt, but I was carrying some type of package that was heavy. The countryside was beautiful. It appeared to be farmland, and the horizon was speckled with cattle that could be seen far across the horizon. Suddenly, I saw a flash of light so bright that it turned everything white as snow. I heard a voice say, “My coming is soon.”

Having been fairly new to Church and prayer at that time, God speaking was foreign to me. After that dream, I was never the same. Around that same time, I attended a district ladies retreat. Bobbie Wendell was one of the speakers and I remember being deeply moved by her message, but what was ingrained in my memory is what I saw during the call to prayer afterwards. In prayer, I saw a huge black wave that seemed to come from a troubled sea. In the wave, there was a multitude of tormented faces; more than could be counted. I have also been haunted by another dream. In this dream, a man was calling to me from some far-away place, saying, “I don’t want to go to hell”. These visions have left me wondering, am I doing enough? 

I am troubled by the thought of not seeking the Lord while He may be found; of getting caught up in the cares of this world, and the distractions that the enemy is clearly putting in the way of God’s people. Many are petty offenses that cause us to stumble. It is time to humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God. It is time to know, and live by His word. It is time to seek God daily in prayer, and time to wisely use the talent(s) God has given us. Let’s not be like the foolish servant, who lost everything.

It is high time to consider how much time is wasted, and how little time we may have. Do we have days, years, months, or decades? According to scripture, nobody knows, but we do have the signs of the times and the admonition to pay attention to them from Jesus Himself. This does not only apply to the second coming of Jesus, but the life we are living. The Bible teaches that life is a vapor. It is fragile, uncertain, and precious. Life must be regarded as precious to God’s people, even if it is devalued in the world we live in. This will be demonstrated by how we are using the space of time God has given us. How much are we taking for granted? Do we disregard the fact that eternity knocks at the door? Do we count precious the time we have to spend with loved ones, or time spent doing eternal things for God. Time spent in prayer and time devoted to His Kingdom are things that last. Sincere, heartfelt, fervent, effectual prayer is valuable to God and stored in heaven (see Revelation 5:8). How much time are we actually spending in prayer. Are we consistently seeking God’s Kingdom and His righteousness? Are we doing the things that prayer would lead us to do? Are we acting as a catalyst for what God would do as a result of prayer? Jesus said, “We must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; night is coming when no one can work” (John 9:4 AMP).

"It's About Time"

Time is precious. Let’s pray that God will bless the time He gives us in our day.

• “Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness upon you” (Hosea 10:12). Lord, forgive us today and cleanse our hearts from indulging in ease and pleasure for it is time to seek You. Let all corrupt affections and lusts depart from us and let us have a broken and contrite spirit which breaks the fallow ground of complacency. Lord, help us to abound in works that are right towards You and others. For we will seek You this day, and we will sow in righteousness and reap Your mercy.

• “My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me” (Psalm 31:15). Lord, I dedicate my day and time to You for it is in Your hands. Lead and guide me into Your divine will and purpose today. Help me to avoid the enemies of my time. Give me wisdom Lord, to steer clear of fruitless activities, time robbers or issues that don’t concern me. Deliver me from those who wish to cause me harm or hinder my progress and cause me to waste time.

• “Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time” (Colossians 4:5). Lord, I pray that I may walk in wisdom toward those who have no wisdom. Help me to not get caught up in fruitless situations but help me to make the most of the opportunities that You give me today for Your Kingdom’s sake.

• “The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way” (Psalm 37:23). Let my steps be directed by You, Lord. Let them be firmly established in walking in Your will today. "Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me" (Psalm 119:133). "I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law [is] within my heart” (Psalm 40:8).

• “What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee” (Psalm 56:3). Lord, we praise You for that when we are afraid we can trust You and through Your Word, to speak to our hearts.

• “So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom” (Psalm 90:12). Help me, Oh Lord, to remember that time is short and the day is burning, so that my work must count for You. Help me to use wisdom in my endeavors and not to waste time on things that don’t really matter.

• “It is time for you, LORD, to work: for they have made void your law” (Psalm 119:126). Lord, I know that the timing is right for You to work in my life and the lives of my loved ones. Lord, continue to do this work that they might see it’s You who are doing these things.

• “For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing floor, it is time to thresh her: yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come” (Jeremiah 51:33). Lord, do what You see fit to bring about a mighty revival in my home, church, family and in my community. We thank You for the mighty deeds You’ve already done and what You’re going to do though me today. In Jesus name, Amen.

The World Network of Prayer Presents 

24/7 WATCH: A Year-Round Initiative for 24/7 Prayer

As of January 1, 2023, WNOP has continued the 24/7 prayer and fasting chain worldwide. It has been such a great success in 2022 that it was requested again. Each week WNOP is posting a prayer focus as daily prayer for the entire week. Also, weekly a video is posted on the WNOP Facebook Page of a prayer leader and/or minister leading in periodic prayer.

Many people throughout the world have signed up by committing in their hearts unto God that they will consistently join together in united prayer and fasting. WNOP also has partnered with those in local churches who are already a part of a current 24-hour prayer chain. All of these hours of consecration are culminating to help provide a complete mass prayer covering over the entire Church body and to help bring greater success in all that we do in Christ! Together, let’s “watch and pray” and behold great and mighty things in the kingdom of God! Let’s prevail over the enemy with victory and declare, “Not on My Watch!”
