The Anointing To Understand The Times And Seasons

Scripture: First Chronicles 12:32

Understanding the times and seasons is not a new and unusual expectation for anybody who understands God’s prophetic heart and His types and shadows from the Old Testament. In First Chronicles 12:32 we find this statement, “…of the children of Issachar who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their chiefs were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their command…” The anointing to understand the times and seasons resided on the children of Issachar in the Old Covenant. In the New Testament it comes via the Holy Spirit and, of course, He releases that which pleases the Father. We can see the biblical precedent for understanding the times and seasons from the children of Issachar to the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, where Paul firmly grasped the concept and outlined it for the church.

 FAITH AND PRAYER

The primary purpose of words is to release power, not to communicate.

That’s why the devil tries to get you talking death. You choose who you live under with your words. To have the kind of faith that when you say something, it happens, you must be fully persuaded of the un-changeableness of God’s WORD. Abraham didn’t stagger through unbelief; he was fully persuaded that God would keep His promise (Romans 4:20).  Abraham didn’t have to have proof. He believed because of the blood agreement he had with God. When God asked Abraham to sacrifice his son, it was not a problem to him (Hebrews 11:17-19). Abraham knew God was able to raise Isaac, and Abraham had already received Isaac as dead and back alive.
