Wind of Change

Revelation 22

 2 On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month.


Our lives are full of seasons, some seasons are fruitful others are seasons of preparation, some seasons are dormant. Even the best seed in the most fertile soil will not grow or bare fruit in a winter season.


Winds increase between seasons signaling change is coming. The wind of heaven is a good thing, it causes a shaking in our lives. 


When the wind blows through the trees, two things fall off the tree, dead things and ripe fruit.


Dead things need to be pruned from our lives, they weigh us down and suck life from an otherwise healthy tree.


Ripe fruit needs to be released from our lives. Ripe fruit that hangs on a tree for to long becomes sour and spoiled, but when it is released in season it is sweet and blesses everyone who tastes it.


We are experiencing a season of shaking and releasing, in both the natural world and the spiritual kingdom.


This is an incredible time to see Gods hand in our lives and to trust that He is our provider. God has a plan and if we have faith we will see greater fruitfulness then we could ever have imagined.


Ecclesiastes 3:1
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven

Have an incredible week,

See you in church!

Ps. Steve
