Ecclesiastes 3:1-11
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which 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 of war, and a time of peace. What profit hath He that worketh in that wherein He laboureth? I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it. He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also He hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
Isaiah 8:18
Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion.
Hey! It’s been a while dropping something here. I have got to do that as we roll by with time and in the mood of celebration. Happy reading to you all.
One major thing to realize in life as a man in Christ is that whatsoever you are or going to become is predicated upon “a time” and “a purpose” manufactured through the divine process called BIRTHING. Just as we know that there are birthing in the Spirit, so also in the natural or physical. Every man must first understand the fact that you must be born.
To every thing there is a SEASON and a TIME for every purpose under the heaven says the preacher (Emphasis mine). The earth was created by God and He placed it upon some certain pillars which are TIME, SPACE and MATTER purposely for man to take advantage of these infrastructures in manufacturing the fundamental reasons of being in this side of eternity.
There is no one without a birthing physically and/or Spiritually. However, do you know what your birth entails? How do you see it? What has it brought to your mind in pursuing the course of heaven? Man is a seed of eternity conceived in the belly of God. We are meant to be a container for carrying out the manifestation of God who is a Spirit John 4:24. Hence, man is given a time and a season. The first time you have is “a time to be born” while the last is “a time to die”.
What does your birth symbolize? Why am I born into this world? Why am I in this family? Why am I still living and not dead by now? Why did God put me where I am at this moment? What is the essence of my birth day? All these among several others are what should call us to a sober reflection. Is it bad to mark or celebrate birthday? Absolutely not. Yet, I want to say that your birth/birthing is a key to unlock doors. That is the understanding you need at this time as my reader.
A survey through the Bible unveils and exhumes the mysteries about BIRTH. I am trusting God to pick few from myriads of examples to serve as the eye opener for my readers across the globe. It is not the about the number of years now, rather, it is about how you can apply your heart unto wisdom as David said in Psalms 90:12.
ENOS: A BIRTHING THAT OPEN PRAYER PORTAL: At the period when the fall has devastated man in. the garden of Eden, there was an array of hope for humanity because God loves man and where the mess was done, there the hope rises. God can bring such hope through birth. “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel”. Genesis 3:15. This speaks about the ultimate redemptive plan but the remedial initiatives were put in place and all came through BIRTH.
There are several children born to Adam and Eve, but when Cain killed Abel, God replaced him with Seth and while Seth birthed, Enos was given. The birth of Enos is a key that Open a portal in the spirit realm into our natural realm and that portal is PRAYER. Men began to gravitates towards God in prayer. “And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and He called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD”. Genesis 4:26. A sense came into mankind for prayer and worshipping God in the day that Seth named a child born ENOS. It’s as if that name or the boy is having sufficient capacity or stature that can open a dimensions able to trapped down the heavens.
Prayer is earthly permission for heavenly interference — Apostle Arome Osayi. Thus, a time came when the birthing of someone serves as a key to unlock praying mode or pattern in his generation. What key does my birth or yours carry for our generation?
Trust God to further on this. You are blessed in the name of the Lord
