Eccelestiates 3:1-8 KJV, 1 Chronicles 12:32 KJV
Psalm 90:12 (KJV)
So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
Life is deceptively brief and seasons can change. Learn the wisdom that comes from alternating seasons and master them in order to remain relevant.
Genesis 41:1-37 KJV
According to the interpretation of Joseph’s Dream (Genesis 41), the seven years of fatness and flourishing represent seven years of ease, abundance, and opportunity; The opportunity to know God, maximize destiny, and invest in life.
While the seven years of leanness represent moments of constraint, inconvenience, and scarcity.
What you’re doing in your season of abundance will sustain you in ur dry season
It is a dangerous thing to once be relevant. It is a dangerous thing for your life to be a warning and not a message
If you master seasons you will remain relevant through seasons
Selective seasons are a mystery everyone should know for no season remains the same in every one life no matter who the man is. In every man’s life, there will be a season of fatness and a season of leanness.
Every season in a man’s life is broken into 4 25-year cycles
- The Morning Stage – The Learning Stage. (First 25 years of your life)
- The Afternoon Stage – The Execution stage (From 26-50 years)
- The Evening Stage – The Legacy Stage – Maximum Kingdom Impact (51 – 75 years). You are not successful until there is a generation that becomes loyal to your thoughts
Be careful with over-seeking comfort at a young age. If you sleep 8 hours every day, by the time you are 30 years old, you would have slept for 10 years. - The Rest Stage (The Last years of your life)
Pharaoh’s dreams show that seasons are changing.
Seasons of opportunity will come.
Genesis 41:37-49;53-55 KJV
The Bible added Joseph’s age to show the reality of seasons.
The advice of Joseph is Save and Invest. And the most precious commodity to save and invest in is TIME.
If you lose time and gain things, you have lost. But if you lose things and gain time, it is still a gain.
To sustain impact and relevance based on Joseph’s interpretation of Pharaoh’s dream.
Keys to Maximising the Seasons of Plenty and Abundance:
1). Build Capacity (Spiritual and Intellectual Capacity (Prayer life, Word Life) 2 Kings 4:1-6): This includes investing in your Prayer and Word life.
2. Build Quality relationships (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12): Relationships are advantageous connections. They have the ability to make or mar a person. It is beneficial to have and invest in quality relationships.
Genuine people are hard to find but pay the price to find them.
Genuine people are scarce to find, they are like gold pay the price to find them early
Your name can be a key or padlock. Your lifetime is what decides it.
Do not let circumstances choose your relationships. Choose your own relationships by deliberate design.
Genuine people are scarce; They are like gold. Pay the price to find them early.
Pray for the grace to raise men, the men you are raising are your real wealth. Don’t waste it.
Treat people with courtesy and honor. Always be there at the point of people’s needs!
Every time God gives you an opportunity to serve, He gives you an opportunity to learn. You will not be a student forever, maximize the opportunity in submission and honor.
Be careful how you treat people.
Relationships should not be for selfishness but because you love them genuinely.
Beware of people who want to be your FRIENDS without adapting their values. Love is the command, association is not.
3). Selflessly invest in blessing and transforming many lives. (1 Samuel 22:1-2, 2 Samuel 23:8-17).
Don’t expect loyalty from people you did not invest in.
Your seasons of abundance should be maximized to build a support system and reserve that would be beneficial to you during seasons of constraint and scarcity.
The key to transgenerational relevance is to impact a generation and grow with them. Do not let a generation pass without investing in, and lifting them selflessly.
When you see consistent results, learn to honor it. Learn to honor everyone ahead of you. They didn’t get there by luck.
It is better to be kind than to be right.
Right does not always mean victory but kind will always mean victory.
4). Study and carefully follow those who have maintained relevance through seasons. (Hebrews 6:12)
Let people qualify for your friendship and companionship.
Be a listener when you stand before greatness
Lamentations 3:27 KJV
Just because you were relevant yesterday does not mean you will be relevant tomorrow. Life is in circles, you must master the cycle of your relevance.
You may not be able to do anything about your yesterday, but you can be intentional about your today. You can always stop and learn!
Be intentional about your life be intentional about everything you are doing
Seasons are powerful. They determine over time if we have been walking in wisdom or foolishness.
The moment you find out your life is not producing consistent results, do not be ashamed to stop what you are doing and learn
Consistent results prove that you have mastered the mystery
In the Name of Jesus, let there be restoration tonight for every given lost and wasted opportunity!
Anyone who left your life as a result of a wasted season and opportunity, I pray for you, may the God of all grace and seasons restore them now!

In the Name of Jesus, let there be a restoration tonight for every given lost and wasted opportunity in your life!
In the Name of Jesus, let there be a restoration of seasons for everyone who has lost time.
Pray: Lord, I repent for insulting the credibility and the track record of those who have gone ahead of me!
Pray: Lord, show me mercy and help me to maximize the seasons of my life!
Receive the wisdom and the grace to maximise this season you are in now!
