Notes from a message by Dutch Sheets

Ecclesiates 3
To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:
A time to be born, And a time to die;
A time to plant, And a time to pluck what is planted;
A time to kill, And a time to heal;
A time to break down, And a time to build up;
A time to weep, And a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, And a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, And a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to gain, And a time to lose;
A time to keep, And a time to throw away;
A time to tear, And a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, And a time to speak;
A time to love, And a time to hate;
A time of war, And a time of peace.
.
This . . .
There is an appointed time. Really. There is an appointed time of change, and nothing will ever be the same.
There is an appointed time. A day. A moment when God breaks in.
.
That . . .
There is a season for us to plow; a season to plant; a season to water and weed; and a season to reap.
.
This is That . . .
What time is it?
Three different words dealing with times and seasons.
Chronos
Chronological time: day to day; hour to hour; moment to moment.
Plowing. Planting. Cultivating. Blood. Sweat. Tears.
Kyros
An appointed time. An opportune time. A kyros time is not necessarily a time when something IS done, but the strategic time when something can and must be done. A kyros moment is a window of opportunity. Kyros is not a time of arrival, but a new season where something is possible. If you "keep on" you will move into the next phase of time . . .
Plero'o
Fullness of time. Jesus came at the "fullness of time". When the day of pentocost was "plero'o" (fully come). The disciples could have fervently prayed for the day of pentecost to come earier, even a day, but it was not going to happen, because the day of pentecost had not yet "fully come".
Plero'o is what we all desire - fullness in joy and provision; Fullness in unity with one another and with God; Experiencing fullness in purpose; Fully loving God and fully recieving his love for us. We have plowed, planted, cultivated and fervently prayed. We have entered into a kyros time of believing and knowing that the window of opportunity is open. That God is up to something. That something big is going on. We can smell the bacon cooking, but we can't quite get a full hold of it to take a bite. Keep pressing, keep praying, do not grow faint. The fullness of time, the fullness of all that God desires, and the fullness of all that we desire in God is coming.
The fullness of God is coming.

Wisdom and Revelation
Ephesians 1:17-18
". . .that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; . . ."
.
This . . .
In a work environment if you know how to do something, then when that something needs to be done, the responsibility will be given to you because you know how to do it. The more right stuff you know how to do and the more wrong stuff you know not to do, the more you are expected to do the right stuff and not do the wrong stuff.
.
That . . .
Wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God are good things, but when wisdom and revelation come they bring along a heightened level of responsibility. To "not know any better" is a pretty good excuse for falling short. But if you know better, you are wise to do better.
.
This is That . . .
I have been seeking wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God's will concerning divorce and remarriage. As I have sought after God's heart on this subject I believe he has given me some answers and those answers are different from what I have always thought and believed. God's thoughts are higher than mine. As stated above, when revelation comes an appropriate response is required. Sometimes I think I would be better off not knowing or understanding some of the things I know and understand concering the ways and will of God. While it may seem good to keep my head in the sand, it for sure is better to pull it out.
Please pray for me as I pray for you and others, that God would give the gift of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him.

I'da seen to it that you'da got to . . .
This . . .
I don't know the story behind this quote, but it's a dandy. I got it from my son Elliott and he thinks he got it from a story that Tarah told. If anyone knows the whole story, I would like to hear it.
"If I'da know'd that you'd a wanted to a went I'da seen to it that you'da got to get to go.".
.
That . . .
I have had some second thoughts about yesterday's post. I do believe that it is good to keep the gospel message simple, but then on the other hand I know that Jesus didn't always "speak English" as it were. I have listed a few instances under This is That.
.
This is That . . .
John 6:53-56
Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him.
Makes sense to me.
.
John 7:6-8
Then Jesus said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready. The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I testify of it that its works are evil.You go up to this feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, for My time has not yet fully come.
I get what he's talking about, but I don't know what he means.
.
Matthew 5:22
But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, ‘Raca!’ shall be in danger of the council. But whoever says, ‘You fool!’ shall be in danger of hell fire.
.
I'm gonna go look for one more and then I'm done.
Matthew 7:21-23
Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!
.
So is calling on the name of the Lord enough? or is doing his will required as well?

Prophetic Untimeliness
This . . .
I have been "reading at" a book called Prophetic Untimeliness by O.S. Guiness. Here is a short summary of what the book is about.
By our uncritical pursuit of relevance we have actually courted irrelevance; by our breathless chase after relevance without a matching commitment to faithfulness, we have become not only unfaithful but irrelevant; by our determined efforts to redefine ourselves in ways that are more compelling to the modern world than are faithful to Christ, we have lost not only our identity but our authority and our relevance. Our crying need is to be faithful as well as relevant.
I am not sure that I know what that means, but I think I understand it.
.
That . . .
OS makes statements in this book that I enjoy because they sound totally brilliant, but after reading them three or four times, I am still scratching my head.
Here is another favorite.
If resistance thinking is so important and untimely people are so vital, where do we find the counterperspective that frees us from the distortions of our own situation?
What?
.
This is That . . .
When God speaks, what he says is always relevant and timely. It is the spin we put on what he says that sometimes makes what we think he said irrelevant and untimely.
I think we need to think simple and speak English.
.
God is good.
God loves me.
God desires that I love him.
When I love him I will be obedient to him.
Sin is bad. Obedience is good.
Read God's word and pray to him about it.
Take care of the needy, give to the poor.
.
I could go on and on and so could you.
We know, but we don't always do.

Colgate, Wasp Guts, and Jonah
.
This . . .
I remember this old toothpaste commercial. A little boy arrives home with his Dad after a visit to the denist and announces to his mother, "Look, Mom, only two cavities!" The idea being that if you brush with Colgate you could have a great check-up too with only TWO cavities. I have had only two cavities in 55 years and one of those was in a baby tooth. Which reminds me, I am almost due for my five year check-up.
.
That . . .
I was printing t-shirts yesterday and suddenly noticed a "lump" between the screen and the shirt. Turns out that just as I lowered the screen, a wasp flew inbetween and then I squeegied him to death in gold ink. I intend to charge more for that shirt because it has wasp guts on it and I figure you should pay more for golden wasp inerds pressed into your shirt.
.
This is That . . .
Jonah was a prophet. Here is the message God gave to Jonah to give to the city of Nineveh,
"Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it; for their wickedness has come up before Me." Jonah 1:2
“Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!” Jonah 3:4
Because we know the end of the story, we know that this decree would be reversed if the people of Nineveh would repent.
.
Think of God sending forth his judgement via email. He types it up,
"I will destroy Nineveh in forty days." Then he tells a prophet to go tell the people what he has in his outbox. The prophet speaks and the people listen. They respond with fasting and repentance. No water, no food, even for the livestock. God is greatly pleased with this repsonse and goes back to the outbox on his computer. Instead of pushing send, he pushes delete.
". . . and God relented from the disaster that He had said He would bring upon them, and He did not do it." Jonah 3:10
.
So here we are, living in the midst of great wickedness all around. And the voice of the Lord is shouting!
Joel 2
1 Blow the trumpet in Zion, And sound an alarm in My holy mountain!
Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble;
For the day of the LORD is coming, For it is at hand:
2 A day of darkness and gloominess, A day of clouds and thick darkness,
Like the morning clouds spread over the mountains.
11 . . . For the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; Who can endure it?
12 “ Now, therefore,” says the LORD, “ Turn to Me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.”
13 So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the LORD your God, For He is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and of great kindness; And He relents from doing harm.
14 Who knows if He will turn and relent, And leave a blessing behind Him—
.
God has an email all typed up in his outbox, but He is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness. He is waiting for his desired response . . .
16 Gather the people, Sanctify the congregation,
Assemble the elders, Gather the children and nursing babes;
Let the bridegroom go out from his chamber,
And the bride from her dressing room.
17 Let the priests, who minister to the LORD,
Weep between the porch and the altar;
Let them say, “Spare Your people, O LORD, . . .

Positioning
This . . .
Here is the deal on our cat Jasper. He stays outside mostly because he is so obnoxious, but when he comes in he wants to be sure you know it. He gets and stays right under your feet, lays down right in your path, meows and makes a rukus by rubbing up against you, and if that doesn't work he will bounce off the wall til you pay attention.
Reminds me of the lady in the Bible who wouldn't be quiet until her neighbor got up to get her something to eat for a late night guest.
.
That . . .
I played basketball in high school. Basketball is a game of positioning. If you want to score, you need to be in the right place to receive the ball where you can shoot and hopefully score.
You need to be in the right spot to pass the ball to a team mate so they can score.
You need to stay between an opposing player and their goal in order to play good defense.
You need to block out and get into position if you want to rebound.
.
This is That . . .
An important part of our relationship with God has to do with being in the right position to receive whatever he has for us or to give whatever he wants from us. Here are a few thoughts on advantageous positioning with God.
A place of prayer is a good start. Having your eyes, ears and face turned towards God is a good thing. You don't want to have to turn around and say, "What was that, God? I wasn't looking, I wasn't listening, I was somewhere over yonder, hang on, I'll be there in a minute".
A place of sin with your back turned towards God would be the total wrong position. Duh! A place of repentance is a good position.
Fellowshiping with other believers is the right place. Fellowshiping with the world would obviously not be good, so don't do that.
I heard someone say this week, "Don't go anywhere you wouldn't take Jesus with you".
Circle under God's feet. Stay in his way. Pray and rub up against him with worship. God's eyes are searching the earth for wholehearted believers with their faces turned towards him ready to receive wisdom and revelation, ready to be and do all that he desires.
.
Turn your eyes upon Jesus. Look full in his wonderful face. And the things of earth will grow strangely dim, in the light of his glory and grace.
.
Here I am God. My face is turned towards you. Send me.

Sounding the Trumpet . . . Again
This . . .
There has been a sweet potato on our counter for a couple of weeks. Yesterday, it turned into a creature from the "vegetable lagoon". Very scary things growing out in every direction. I am thankful it is right next to the knives.
.
That . . .
So what is with all the flies? I think I know now why they're called house flies - because they are all in the house. Just how long does a fly live and do they come from sweet potatoes?
.
This is That . . . .
Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come.
Most believers have a pretty good idea of who God has been, but the question is . . .
Who is He? (What is He doing?) and what about the "is to come" part? (What are His plans?)
.
When I first started blogging, I wanted to "Sound The Alarm and Blow The Trumpet In Zion"
Nothing much has changed except we are closer to Jesus' return now than we were then.
I want to get back to it.
Here are five important things that I believe need to be trumpeted.
.
1. Great revival is coming. God is going to pour out his power on "The Bride of Christ" as he brings us into unity and perfects us in love. We are on a mission from God and he is going to empower us to be victorious. This will be the churches finest hour.
.
2. Great trouble and tribulation are coming as sin in the world comes into fullness. The trouble will come from a variety of sources, but it will all be orchestrated by God. He will use the least possible amount of trouble, to bring the greatest number of people into the deepest level of love without violating anyones free will. This will be really terrible trouble, but also a really great harvest.
.
3. Wholeheartedness is required. This is no time to continue in sin. Repent and turn your heart completely towards the Lord. Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your mind, and with all your strength. Luke warm is going away and only the hot and cold will remain. Trust me, you want to be hot.
.
4. God is good, even when trouble comes, do not be decieved . . . God is GOOD. He is full of love, mercy, and kindness in the great outpouring and in the trouble. When trouble comes, people generally turn away from God, or run to Him. Make a decision now to ALWAYS run to Him for He is good.
.
5. Pray. God is raising up a mighty army of worship and intercession. Join the army. Call a sacred assembly. Fast. Pray. Cry out between the porch and the altar. Worship the Lord your God. Seperate yourself from the "things of the world". Don't be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Meditate on God's word and pray over it.
.
These five points are all covered in the book of Joel - Only three chapters. Make that nine if you read it three times.
