Seasons of Intercession

“But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.” (1Th 5:1). God sets out His appointed times and special seasons according to His divine purposes. “To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven” (Ecc 3:1). Adam Clarke says: “God by his providence governs the world, and has determined particular things and operations to particular times. In those times such things may be done with propriety and success; but if we neglect the appointed seasons, we sin against this providence, and become the authors of our own distresses.”

“For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” (Est 4:14.) It is time for us to make bold requests (Mark 10:51) as we recognize the season and realize our place in it (in our family, church, business, community, nation).
