Matthew 3:1-2, “In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, 2) And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” John the Baptist was a great opening act for Jesus, who was the oncoming main attraction introducing to the world is new brand label, the Kingdom of Heaven. John, like a pacesetter in a running event, went out ahead of Jesus, and established the atmosphere for Jesus to run. This allows the main runners to increase their leadership and tactics in the race as the pacesetter decreases out of that role for them to take over the race. Once Jesus caught up to John the pacesetter at his Baptism, Jesus would begin to increase in his role and take over as John the pacesetter decreased in his role: Matthew 11:10, “For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.” So John the Baptist, and Jesus, relatives, they got it started as they opened up shop for the establishment of the Kingdom of Heaven.
Once Jesus hour was at hand, he would finish his work here on earth in bodily form, and prepare to return unto his Father in Heaven. However, before leaving, he commands his Apostles to wait for the promise of the Father before they head out to do what he had commissioned them to do. Acts 1:4, “And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.” The thing about processing through the Godhead to bring to pass that which you hoped for, is that you must use all of the Godhead. Jesus knew this better than anyone, especially since he had just done it: processed as a man, and not as God through the Godhead. And Jesus, being the Word made flesh, knew that his boys had a clear Word from his mouth, but he also knew that the Word only would not get the job done. Processing through the Word only, only gets you a third of the way home. So bring on Acts 2:1-4, “And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 2) And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. 3) And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. 4) And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.”
Speaking with tongues is one of the entry level gifts of the Holy Ghost, and it is a manifested gift on you from receiving the Holy Ghost that let’s you know that you can now go jump out of the Word plane, for your parachute for safe landing is up and operating. lol. And by the way, if you haven’t received the Holy Ghost yet, get get get to it: get to the Church, get to a filled prayer partner, get to somebody who knows, but just get it. Also, if you are currently standing on a Word of God hoping for it to come to pass, call an already filled person that you know today and just talk about your Word that you are standing on, a filled member of the body will be gifted in various areas, and you are allowed to piggy back help from any of their gifts as the Holy Ghost is willing. That’s just what we members do, we are linked together to help each other. Now this leads me right into my title, “The Father Season Is Now At Hand.” So two of the Godhead to process down, with the Father to Go. And you really don’t want to jump out of the Word plane without the Father on stand-by. When your hour come to die to the flesh, who else but the Father can show up with your season in hand for you to have a favorable place to land? Acts 1:7, “And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.” He just doesn’t have a time and a season, but he has put the times, and the seasons in which you need to know in his own power.
So here, set your clock with the Father clock so that you will know when he will show. No I didn’t forget to make the Father clock to show possession. The Father clock processes along the time line of your processing through the other two members of the Godhead. For example, the Father could not have set a time with the Apostles to meet them with a door to the next season. And why not? Let’s process with them for a minute: So in the Word Godhead, it got off to a great start because Jesus himself gave it directly to the Apostles with added directions: don’t take off without the promise. So Father is there peeping in, by now you should know that he is a member of the all one God, and is keeping watch for his turn to come. Then the day of Pentecost comes, and the Apostles are processing the additional Word pretty good and timely. The next thing they know is that they have now received the promise of the Holy Ghost. The Father also knew that this Word had been given to the Apostles to wait on the promise, because it was his Will that sent forth that Word in the first place. So Father is beginning to smile, it appears that his time to show up with a needed door to the next season could be near. And then something happened: the Apostles remained in Jerusalem, it seemed like for ever, and did not go out with the Word as fast as they could of, would of, and should of: boy was that a surprise to the Godhead! The Godhead is use to working as a quick strike team without man; if the Word says to it, let their be light, before the day is gone, you will see the light.
OK, that’s enough processing with the Apostles. You can see why the Father does not synchronize his clock with us, but with the timeline as the others in the Godhead are being processed through. If the Father had showed up for the Apostles to help them with their times and seasons, the Father would have had to replace much natural faith substance that had gone bad waiting so long. A day might be as a thousand years for God, but natural faith substance would need to be used Now. Matter of fact, the key to the processing of the Father Godhead is in making sure to fully exhaust the processing of the first two in the Godhead. John 4:23, “But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.” When this verse says that “But the hour cometh,” this is the processing of the first two in the God head bringing you closer into position to meet up with the Father Godhead. Then when that verse says, “and now is” that is the Father Godhead being processed by you, as you have finished exhausting fully, the Word and Holy Ghost in the Godhead process. And finally in that verse, “when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.” The Father will seek you to finish the process to bring to pass that you hope for as you meet him with your sustained faith for the truth that awaits you according to his will for you uncovered through the process. You may know that you have to sacrifice to get that what you hoped for, but will you step into the truth of his will that you have processed in faith, when the door opens for you? It was no way that Jesus was going to miss the cross once he got to that door. Once you process through unto the truth that you uncovered through the process, let it be no way that you miss the door once you get there. The Father is seeking those who will not miss the door once they get there.
The Father Still Does Love To Do The Body Good.
