In Ecclesiastes, Chapter Three, verse one, LORD tells us, "To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven:" There is coming an hour, day, year that our ETS on this earth will arrive. When that day comes, God will send his angels (Luke 16, verse 22), and carry us home to Heaven. Our battles will be over; victory will be won. Until our ETS date, we will have other dates similar to DEROS date I referred to earlier. These dates will be events in our lives that changes course of our lives and gives us new seasons. Events sometimes come suddenly, unexpected illness, financial losses, family problems, and sometimes we know they are coming. But, remember, there is a time and a season for everything under heaven. That is why LORD tells us in Psalm 37, trust in him and lean not unto our own understanding. Praise Him who controls times and seasons!
The Apostle Paul knew his time was coming. He was so close to Jesus, and his faith was so great, that LORD gave him many revelations. These revelations caused Paul to be battle worn, to be tired and weary. What a day for him, when LORD revealed unto him his work was finished! Paul suffered much, yet LORD was with him. What He has done for others, He will do for you.
Soldiers of God, keep on firing line! Jesus has never lost a battle, and He will send deliverance. "A time to be born, and a time to die, a time of war, and a time of peace."
Hebrews 6.15 "And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained promise."
