Many Are Caught in a Season of Grief They Simply Cannot Overcome...Read How you can...

To everything there is a season.  The Bible says that God moves in seasons.  Until you understand the seasons of YOUR OWN life, you are always going to be asking WHY.  Why this, why that, why not now, why do I have this limitation, why doesn't that person want to be with me?  The why's never end when you fail to understand seasons.  Just imagine someone living and not figuring out the seasons of the year.  And they are planting, and planting crops, and they get discouraged because only 25 percent of their labor seems to do well.  The seeds planted in Spring do well, but the ones planted in Summer, Winter and Fall don't do so well and they are frustrated.  

We would look at that and understand immediately that 75 percent of their harvest was failing because they were planting that much of their seed out of SEASON.  While the seasons of the year may be EASY TO SEE, everything on the earth goes by the seasons of God, and many of those seasons are NOT that easy to see.

Some of our seasons are age related, some of them are just part of the destiny of God, but no matter what holds our seasons we have to understand that God moves by seasons in our lives and their is no remote control to get us out of one season into another season.  Everything moves by the timing of God.

One of the hardest laws of God's seasons is that there is a time to be born and a time to die.   Sometimes the birth of a child into this world can come at time when we weren't ready for that.  And often death comes and no matter how much we prepare ourselves we feel ourselves overwhelmed and unprepared for the death of a loved one.  Abraham lost Sarah his wife, and he buried her there in the land that God had taken him to.

1And Sarah was a hundred and seven and twenty years old: these were the years of the life of Sarah.
2And Sarah died in Kiriatharba; the same is Hebron in the land of Canaan: and Abraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her.
3And Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spoke unto the sons of Heth, saying,
4I am a stranger and a sojourner with you: give me a possession of a burying place with you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight.
I'm talking to someone today and you have lost someone that is close to you.  And when they died a part of your life was taken with them, and you have not been the same again.  The Bible says that weeping last for the night  but joy comes in the morning, but, somehow, your morning has turned into a mourning that just does not end.    There is a season where our sorrows turn into joy and our grief turns into laughter.  After we have grieved for a while, it is the work of the Holy Spirit who is the comforter to come and fill our hearts with the peace and joy of God once again.  The season you had before they passed away, that season is over.  Your life won't ever be the same again, but there is new life, there is joy in the morning, there is a new season around the bend. 
God will help you let go of the old, and to cleave to that which is new.  Father, In the name of Jesus, I pray that the sorrow and the grief and the ashes of mourning would turn into joy today.  Lord I pray the comfort of the HOLY SPIRIT upon the hearts and minds of those that have lost someone that they dearly love.  I bind and break that spirit of depression and self pity.  I come against that suicidal spirit that just wants to go on and die, I break the plan of the enemy to rob them of the joy of the next season of their life, and I pray that the Spirit of God would be their source of help and relief.  In Jesus name.  amen.
