Time Folds

I’ve just attended a cousin’s wedding meeting where I was asked to give a concluding prayer. I shied away. They insisted.

I began to pray.

I declared Deuteronomy 28 starting, then I went on to speak into the big day. I summarized all that I could, only for my extended family to open their eyes and say, “…you’re going to be a pastor or what?”

Another chuckled, “Ensure this man doesn’t pray for the food on that day; it will grow cold. See that man even slept off as you prayed…”

(A colleague was acting asleep in a corner somewhere…)

In my head, that was nothing. I was rushing. I had not even started praying. But the people around felt it long. They watched the clock.

Most assuredly, I didn’t feel the effect of time. It’s like I went into a tunnel that goes on and on forever independent of time.

God spoke to me, saying, “You see, a thousand years to me are like a day. As you pray, with the understanding that I am one with you, suddenly, the effect or…the way I experience life, becomes the same way you do. You cease to just love me, and you love like me.

You cease to experience time like every earthly being, and experience it like I do. It FOLDS, and no wonder men like Moses didn’t grow wrinkles. The effect of time on him was disannuled. He couldn’t decay like how things that are yielded to the earth. The same happens with you. How do you think I restore one’s youth as the eagle’s?

I can choose to suspend time’s effect off someone. I can choose to reverse time like I did for Hezekiah, and make someone younger. All in all, just like Lot increased the more when he dwelt with Abraham, time folds and yields to you too, since you dwell with me. Abide.”

Wow!

Then He added, “As I am, so are you!”
