Times, Seasons and New Beginnings

Maximizing Your Current Season

God makes all things beautiful in His time.

This teaching continued the series on times and seasons, focusing on how believers can maximize their current season while preparing for what comes next.

01

Every Season Has a Purpose

Ecclesiastes 3 teaches that everything has an appointed time.

There are seasons to begin, seasons to wait, seasons to work, seasons to mourn and seasons to rejoice.

The important question is not simply, “When will this season end?” but also, “What should I be doing in this season?”

Scripture

Isaiah 43:18–19

Behold, I will do a new thing.

02

Maximize Where You Are

Your current season is the material from which the next season is built.

The teaching used the widow’s jar of oil as an illustration of using what is already available to prepare for what is ahead.

No season lasts forever, so believers were encouraged not to allow difficult seasons to define their entire lives.

03

Prayer and Positioning

Prayer was presented as an important way of positioning oneself for God’s will.

Believers were encouraged to seek wisdom, understand God’s will and remain filled with the Spirit.

Prayer can also help believers overcome anxiety and gain clarity concerning what God is doing.

Your current season is the material from which the next season is built.

04

New Beginnings

Isaiah 43:18-19 speaks of God doing a new thing.

The teaching encouraged believers to recognize new beginnings, prepare for them and respond to them with faith.

The message closed with an invitation to Christ and prayer for encounters, miracles, signs, wonders and answered prayers.
