My friend Paul sent me a message a few days before a lunar eclipse, talking about one of my favorite topics: the intersection of *chronos* time, or clock-and-calendar time, with *kairos* time, or what the Bible calls “the fullness of time.”

Mary and I were on the deck praying last night, and we got still and asked God what He would speak to us in this season. And the moon was out, about a three-quarters moon before the full moon later this week, when we’ll have an eclipse over North America. 

It'll be quite an event. 

I was looking at that, and I felt the Lord say to me, "You know, if you didn't know better, you wouldn't know that there was an eclipse coming. If you didn't have all this modern information, this Friday morning, you would get up and suddenly, bam! There it is! It happened!”

That eclipse is a chronos event. It's clock or calendar time, in its season, moving through the natural order of things. 

And the Lord said, “I have a crossover time for you, of kairos time, God's appointed time for you, in chronos time, and you don't see it coming. Like the eclipse: if you get up in the night and wonder—wait a minute, what happened? In the natural, there was an incredible shift. You didn't see it coming, but it's coming quickly. There is an intersection of my kairos time for you into chronos time that is going to shift everything.”

*So, Lord, we don't know what that timing looks like, but we want to pray into that today, that you have put the times and seasons, you set them in motion, and you also have all things in your hands.* 

*And so, as we're looking at that today, watching what you're doing, we see that you are going to bring forth that crisscross time, where the two cross, and we want to be centered in your kairos purposes, looking to that kairos moment in the divine order, the divine timing, of things for our lives.* 

*We pray this day, release it, in Jesus' name. Amen.*

Amen!

The people who sat in the dark saw a great light,
