TIME ZONES PT 3

When most people think of Time Zones, the first thing that comes to mind is the familiar, which is Natural Time Zones.

Familiar Time Zones like, Central, Eastern, ECT-Ecuador, WET-Western Europe, CET-Central European, IRST-Iran Standard, HKT-Hong Kong, KST-Korean, or any one of the other 32 additional ones that make up the 40 Time Zones that we have here on planet Earth.

But just as Earth has Time Zones, so too does Heaven.

In our last few talks on this subject, we’ve been looking deeper into the unfamiliar, which is God and His Spiritual Time Zones.

Those who are familiar with God, still might not be as familiar with how he works in His Spiritual Timing.

As I’ve previously stated, man’s time and Gods timing are not the same.

Many of us awaken daily with a concern for the Time, but far fewer of us awaken with a consciousness of Timing.

A clock cannot revive or wake someone up. Just try setting one in a cemetery and see what happens. Gods timing is what awakens us.

My desire is for this Truth to help us to be more conscious of Gods Timing.

Throughout the Bible God uses the term Behold, which means to look, see, open your eyes, or perceive what is before you.

Variations of this phrase appear more than 3000 times indicating that there is something before us that we are not seeing. That’s because we are looking in the Natural realm, but what God wants us to see is in the Spiritual realm. It’s in His Spiritual Time Zone.

I mentioned last time that we’d discuss Now O’ Clock and Faith-thirty.

Theres a verse in the Bible that speaks of “NOW FAITH IS”, which permits us to see what we’ve been looking for, hoping for, and believing for.

NOW, is a position in Timing, not Time. NOW, can happen at any “time”.

NOW O’ Clock happens when we have enough faith to do what God told us, and Faith Thirty is when we chose to exercise that, Faith.

In another place God says, See, I’m doing a New Thing, NOW it springs up do you not perceive it?

The local time in heaven is always NOW O’ Clock. What time do you have?

Our current state is in a Temporal Time Zone; Our Heavenly Father’s permanent residence is in an Eternal Time Zone. Time is irrelevant where he lives. Timing is what is most valuable in Heaven.

Because Time is unstable it changes by the second. However, Timing is lasting, it encompasses all of time. Timing outlast Time.

Time has a Tick. Timing has a Beat.

Time is analogue and analytical. Timing is synchronized and rhythmical.

Time uses a Clock. Timing uses a Metronome.

Here’s the Clock:

Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, move here, move there, do this, do that. Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock, say this, say that, find this, find that. Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock!

Versus the Metronome:

Back and then Forth, back and then forth, back and then forth, Let it be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven, Let it be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven, Let it be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven. Back and then forth.

See the difference! Feel the difference!

Tick Tock Tick Tock Tick Tock Tick Tock, 80 BPM. Vs. Back and then Forth, Back and then Forth, 40 BPM like a well-trained athlete’s heart.

We have been instructed by the Bible to follow Heavens beat, Matthew 11:28-30 says, “Learn the unforced rhythms of grace”

Time is forced. Timing is unforced.

Time says, I want it now! Timing says, it will happen when it is supposed to happen. What is Your watch saying right now?

We are to live in sync with Gods Will / His Timing, which is in direct contrast to the hurried life we have here on Earth dictated by Time.

Tick tock, tick tock, stressed and strained. Tick tock, tick tock, exhausted and drained.

Or. Back and then forth, Graceful and Rhythmic. Back and then forth, Peaceful and Content. Back and then Forth. What Gods says, it will be.

Our Faith must go back and then forth. From Spiritual to Natural. Back and then forth, from Heaven to Earth. Back and then forth.

These are the Rhythms of Grace. This is the melody from Heaven.

Not every clock or watch has a second hand, but if you remove the cover, you will see a flurry of activity making things happen underneath.

So it is, with Heaven’s time, Faith is the second hand on its clock. Faith makes things move in the Spiritual Time Zone.

Faith is the substance/evidence of things hoped for. Faith shows us the proof in what God said.

God is “gearing” us up to see the inner workings of the Kingdom of Heaven that are taking place right NOW in the Spiritual Time Zone.

Next time I’ll show you how we can travel to Heavens Time Zone.
