Don’t Miss the Train | Give Him 15: Daily Prayer with Dutch | Sept. 20

welcome once again to give him 15. the title of our post today is don't miss the train the story is told of a man who rushed into a suburban railroad station one morning and almost breathlessly asked the ticket agent when does the 801 train leave at 801 was the answer well the man replied it's 759 by my watch 757 by the town clock and 804 by the station clock which time am i to go by you can go by any clock you wish said the agent but you cannot go by the 801 train for it is already left jesus wept over jerusalem saying you didn't recognize the time of your visitation they missed the train a group of israelites decided to try and possess the land of canaan the day after god told them the opportunity had passed they were routed by the canaanites the train had already departed ecclesiastes tells us timing is important to god there is an appointed time for everything and there is a time for every event under heaven ecclesiastes 3 1 we must recognize the timings and seasons god ordains for our lives ministries cities and nations too often we try to reap during planting season plant during harvest run when we should be resting and rest when it is time to run even the right action if done at the wrong time well-intentioned as it may be will cause us to miss the train every time one of the tribes of israel issachar had a prophetic ability to discern timing they were men who understood the times with knowledge of what israel should do first chronicles 12 32 is the car's ability to understand or discern the times gave them insight as to what to do recognizing god's timing is one of the keys to taking proper action daniel 2 20 21 tells us let the name of god be blessed forever and ever for wisdom and power belong to him and it is he who changes the times and the epochs or seasons he removes kings and establishes kings he gives wisdom to wise men and knowledge to men of understanding i've often referred to this changing of the times and seasons as the divine shift we must understand and recognize the divine shifts moments when god changes the times and seasons if not we could be sitting in the train station with our bags packed and ticket in hand watching the train that was to carry us into god's purpose disappearing into the distance one of the great disasters of history took place in 1271. niccolo and mate matteo polo the father and uncle of marco marco polo were visiting the kubla khan at that time a world ruler over china india and all of the east he was attracted to the story of christianity as niccolo and mateo shared it with him and said to them you shall go to your high priest and tell him on my behalf to send me a hundred men skilled in your religion and i shall be baptized and when i am baptized all my barons and great men will be baptized and their subjects will receive baptism too so there will be more christians here than there are on your parts however nothing was done for 30 years then two or three missionaries were sent too little too late it is staggering to think what a different world it may have been if china and india had been impacted by the gospel in the 13th century the opportunity was missed could it be that god was trying to create an incredible shift that would have changed the course of history we may never know but it certainly seems possible we must never allow anything like that to happen in our generation when god wants to change the times and seasons or the heart of a king we must do our part to see it occur the following three verses in isaiah speak of god's change into new seasons isaiah 48 6 you have heard look at all this and you will you not declare it i proclaim to you new things from this time even hidden things which you have not known isaiah 43 19 behold i will do something new now it will spring forth will you not be aware of it i'll even make a roadway in the wilderness rivers in the desert isaiah 42 9 behold the former things have come to pass now i declare new things before they spring forth i proclaim them to you notice the phrase spring forth in the last two verses these words mark a shift in time something new is about to spring forth will you not be aware of it god asks even though god's shifts sometimes come quickly they are typically the end of lengthy processes the shift may happen quickly but it's the result of a process and he always gives prophetic alerts this is why i pay attention to dreams visions and words like the one i posted friday regarding the showdown we've posted many words over the last year regarding what holy spirit is saying to the church now this is the issachar anointing we must now be diligent to pray we must now we must now be diligent to pray what he is saying even though elijah knew it was time for the removal of israel's drought he still had to involve himself he confronted the sin and compromise which we talked about last friday and he travailed for the release of reign first kings 18. even though daniel knew it was time for israel's restoration he still had to fast and pray to see it come about daniel 9. god has been and continues to expose the evil and foolishness in our current government he has also been saying over and over that he's going to restore our nation through a great revival that will impact all of society not just government holy spirit has promised to judge the ahabs and jezebels of our day and bring down giants that oppose him he is telling us this these things not simply to encourage us but so we can through prayer birth his will in the earth just as elijah and daniel did god works through his people not independently of us we must not miss this timing we must pray fervently and faithfully reading joining me daily on this post is one way you can do this but also use other reminders and pray with others of course other groups other alerts train yourself to pray simple prayers and make decrees as you go throughout the day as you shower put on your makeup decree america shall be saved as you drive to work decree the unrighteous government in america will be removed before you go to sleep at night ask god for his mercy and declare that giants will fall it does not have to be complicated and it doesn't have to be a long prayer be creative in other words think of ways to do this just think of the accumulated time and amount of prayer that would be offered on a daily basis if we all do this incredible friend we must not miss this train pray with me father you have told us by your spirit that the showdown is coming you have said america shall be saved we believe these words you've also told us we are moving into a great awakening we believe this also we believe you are coming to rescue millions and millions of people around the world from the
