It is Harvest Time!

Welcome to September, your birthing month. A new Jewish year (Rosh Hashanah), a new school year, your harvest season!
September has always been a prophetically infused month. As this is the month of harvest in the natural world, so it is in the supernatural. I know it has been trying times these past two years, but do not faint now, this is your due season! It is your time to reap!
God is the master agriculturist and uses agriculture-like stories, terms, and allegories throughout the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. Sowing and reaping is an agricultural principle and law that originated from the kingdom of God. We have all heard by now the infamous quote, “whatsoever a man soweth, that he shall reap.” Naturally, reaping is the gathering of a ripened crop. Spiritually, it is used as a symbol of recompense for good and evil; like evangelism; and the final judgment.
The Lord is saying to many of you—"Yes, this is your time to reap! This is your due season! You have been faithful and diligent to me, given the circumstances in your life and of this world. You have sought me endlessly and have not rejected your process nor neglected your devotion toward me.”
Friends, there is a specific blessing and answer just for you in this season. Trust and believe in this moment, the Lord is comforting, strengthening, and encouraging you. You are on His mind. Do not faint, but rejoice and give him glory for what is to come in the future days, months, and even years! You are at the cusp of a mighty move of God in your life and the body of Christ.
You are at the threshold! A threshold is the sill of a doorway; the entrance to a house or building; or any place or point of entering or beginning. A threshold means you are almost there, the answered prayer is moments away! The promised land went from being unable to see, to now being able to see glimpses of it! The children of Israel found themselves in that space too before they were about to inherit the land promised to them by God. It was in that “threshold” season in the wilderness where they learned the same principles of the Kingdom, sowing and reaping of their faith!
The Lord is saying, "look again with eyes of faith. This time, you will see and discern with new eyes that indeed the time is Now!"
“Yes indeed, it won’t be long now.” God’s Decree. “Things are going to happen so fast your head will swim, one thing fast on the heels of the other. You won’t be able to keep up. Everything will be happening at once—and everywhere you look, blessings! Blessings like wine pouring off the mountains and hills. I’ll make everything right again for my people Israel: “They’ll rebuild their ruined cities. They’ll plant vineyards and drink good wine. They’ll work their gardens and eat fresh vegetables. And I’ll plant them, plant them on their own land. They’ll never again be uprooted from the land I’ve given them. God, your God, says so. (Amos 9:13-15, The Message).
The promised land is nearer than you think. Be encouraged, sowers. It is Harvest Time! A harvest of souls, a harvest of blessings, a harvest of personal encounters with the Lord, a harvest of revelation, a harvest of signs, miracles, and wonders!
