During the prayer meeting two weeks ago, God began to talk to us about the goodness He is going to reward us with. He said, “I am going to do you good, give you rain from heaven and fruitful seasons, fill your hearts with food and gladness” (Acts 14:17). Then on Sunday 9th September He told us to ask Him, through prayer and fasting, what we were to receive individually.
After our 4th anniversary, I felt we were entering a new season in which God would reward us with good and perfect gifts. That was the message on Sunday – the time to be favored has come. Little did I know that on that same day, starting at 3pm, the Jews would be celebrating Rosh Hashanah, the beginning of their new year. Apparently, they take time to fast and pray on that day. Just as on several occasions in the past, we received a word in due season that was confirmed by the significance of the day it was preached on.
