Overruling a Season

Text: Dan. 2:21
MORE LESSONS: Psa. 57: 1-11
Bible Reading in one Year: 2 Chronicles 17-19

As a child of God, you must know how to get events, times and seasons to align with God's will and purpose for your life. One portion of the prayer that Jesus taught His disciples is Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven: Matt 6:10. So when God's will is not being done in a season of your life, what to do is to overrule that season.

I want to let you know that there is no season that you cannot overrule. If hard times, difficulties and bad seasons come your way, you can overrule them. Don't allow seasons to rule you, rather you overrule them. Everyman, even the righteous, may go through an unfavourable season one time; so it is not the fact that you are in a challenging time that is the problem. The problem comes when you allow that difficult time to prevail over you. You are to prevail over bad season by overruling it.

Let us look at some principles of overruling a season from the Bible, Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities' be over past: Psa. 57:1. David was a man who experienced many adverse seasons that needed to be overruled. From this scripture, we see a secret that he knew , . . . until these calamities be over past. David said this calamity will pass, and it did.

Even in the midst of calamity David had the hope and expectation that the situation would change. The first thing to do to overrule your bad season is to be convinced of the possibility of change. You have to believe that a bad season is nota permanent state. Unfavourable seasons are not to be accepted.. . . for my soul trusteth in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings will I make my refuge. This is the expression of faith and trust in God. Many are not able to overrule their negative season because they do not stand in faith but rather panic in fear . Only the still can still the storm. Faith and fear don't work to get her. Unfavourable seasons are not to be feared and panicked over . Faith is the victory that you need.

Finally , For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith:Mark11:23. You overrule by the words of your mouth. Seasons change as you declare words that are empowered by the Holy Ghost.

Payer/Action
* Make a decree that evil season will not thrive in your destiny.
* Command every contrary season to change today and bow out of your life.
