season, a time to every purpose under heaven and moving to verse 6 it says ‘ a time
to get and a time to loose, a time to keep and a time to cast away, a time to lend and
a time to sew, a time to keep silence and a time to speak. So my Son we have time
and season for everything, this time all you need is to keep silence, wait for God and see
what he will do, so don’t give up my son.

you cant move closer to him, see my son if you see that anything strange happen to
you, the first thing you should is seek God, instead of you using your own power
and self cant do anything. He said even up till now you’ve not make your request
known, ask it shall be given unto you, seek and you shall find, knock and the
door shall be open unto you. All he want from you is to ask him and he will surely
do it for you. You can as well see that when you prayed and fast, he did it, even
before Jesus started His ministry he fast and pray! My son fast and pray!!! prayer
is the key to everything and move closer to God.
