TIME AND CHANCE

Celebration Church Int'l

In this thought-provoking episode, we explore the deep connection between purpose, timing, and the will of God. Drawing from the temptation of Jesus in Matthew 4, we are reminded that not everything we can do—or even pray for—should be done. The question is not always, “Is it possible?” but “Is it time?”

This message unpacks how spiritual results are not always about intensity, but about alignment with God’s purpose. It’s not just about asking—it's about asking within the context of divine seasons and purpose (Ecclesiastes 9:11, James 4:3).

Key takeaways include:

📍 Doing what God is blessing is better than asking Him to bless what you're doing
📍 Devotion matters—but purpose is the highest spiritual law
📍 Not every unanswered prayer is a failure—some things are bound by divine timing (Exodus 12:41)
📍 Prayer is powerful, but it must align with God’s path for you
📍 There are spiritual seasons—and we must learn to discern them (Daniel 9:2)
📍 Even miracles follow purpose; manna stopped when Israel reached the Promised Land (Joshua 5:12)

You’ll also learn about the three kinds of divine purpose:

1. Immutable Purpose – God's eternal decrees (e.g., the crucifixion of Christ)

2. Conditional Purpose – Responsive to our prayers and actions

3. Time-Specific Purpose – Relevant for a season and subject to change

We close with a strong reminder: The cloud has moved—move with it. Not everything from the past should be repeated. Stay aligned, stay discerning, and stay rooted in purpose.

This is a timely word for anyone feeling stuck, restless, or out of sync. Tune in and recalibrate your walk with God according to His timing and plan.
