Before we begin, I would like you to understand that the believer should be like the sons of Issachar who had knowledge and understanding of the times and seasons. There are varieties of time and one of such is the time of prayer.
However I want to speak on one variety of time called THE TIME OF VISITATION.
Psalm 8:4 KJV What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
The time of visitation is a time the Lord uses in visiting his creation. Pathetically, a lot of people are in certain predicaments and problems because they do not have a perfect understanding of the visitations of the Lord and how to receive him in such times. This was the same thing with the city of Jerusalem that made Jesus cry over it.
Luke 19:44 KJV And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; BECAUSE THOU KNEWEST NOT THE TIME OF THY VISITATION. .
Bible says as a result of not being able to recorgnize the Lord’s visitation, the enemy overtook them and made their lives miserable. This is the story of most Christians even believers.
Leveticus 23:2 KJV Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, even these are my feasts.
The word , ‘feasts’ from the Hebrew rendition is ‘mowed’ which means, ‘appointed time, appointed place and appointed meeting’.
These feasts were the Lord’s appointment with man. These were the appointed times, appointed places and meetings for the Visitation of the Lord. During these celebrations, the heavenly portals are so opened for the Lord, together with the heavens to invade the earth.
This is to certify that any man, having a complete understanding of the feasts of the Lord and partakes of it consciously will experience the supernatural. Angelic trafficking is so strong in these feasts.
Jesus so much took advantage of the feasts in that, most of his greatest recorded miracles took place during feasts.
Now, take note that the feasts are not the feasts of men nor the feasts of Israel – they are THE FEASTS OF THE LORD.
Because of this, the heavenly portals or gates are so much opened in these appointed times.
In the scripture below we see how that Jesus turned water into wine. And Until you read the verse 13 you wouldn’t know it was about Passover which is one of the feasts of the Lord.
John 2:7 KJV Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
John 2:8 KJV And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.
John 2:9 KJV When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
John 2:13 KJV And the Jews’ passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
Jesus so knew that the portals of the heavens were opened and It was so easy for him to take advantage of it.
Another time when Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, it was also about the time of Passover.
The miracle of the multitudes being fed with bread even 5,000 men was after the same manner.
John 6:9 KJV There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?
John 6:10 KJV And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
John 6:11 KJV And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.
Concerning this the Bible recounts:
John 6:4 KJV And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
Brethren, don’t play with the feasts of the Lord.
Paul the Apostle likewise lays credence to this truth;
Acts 18:21 But bade them farewell, saying, I MUST BY ALL MEANS KEEP THIS FEAST that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.
He as an Apostle of the Lord didn’t want to delay and miss the feast for he knew that the portals become opened and heaven invades the earth.
Aside feasts which are seasonal visitations of the Lord, there is a particular demarcation of time where God always visits men.
Job 7:17 KJV What is man, that thou shouldest magnify him? and that thou shouldest set thine heart upon him?
Job 7:18 KJV And that thou shouldest visit him every morning, and try him every moment?
The Lord visits men EVERY MORNING. He is right in your room daily but you don’t even know it. O mercy!
The word morning is, ‘boqer’ in Hebrew which means, ‘dawn’.
The dawn begins from 3am and culminates at 6am which also is the 4th watch of the night season. During these 3 hours are the blessings of the Lord packaged for every believer by the delivery of angels whose trafficking is at its peak to communicate whatever the Lord has for his people in the fast approaching day.
Most activities of the darkworld such as witchcraft actually begins at 12am and ends with the beginning of the 4th watch, which is 3am.
The Lord is there to make known to you their plans that they may be taken in their own enterprise and that the eyes of the bird be opened against the traps for the fowler, but then you may be asleep.
Isaiah 50:4 KJV The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
He wakes you up at dawn, ready to make you hear what he has to say. It’s the time for engaging silence for he has visited to speak to you.
May you be enlightened with the reality of the time of visitation that you may not miss the Lord’s visitations.
SHALOM!
