Time Travels.


As Christians, we sit with Jesus, at the right hand of the Father. This means we are outside time, just as the Father and His Son are outside time. This means we can move through time, forwards and backwards, on the time line of infinity.

Imagine for a minute; you were born with a gene which is detrimental to your health. Imagine God; the all-powerful, almighty, all knowing, omnipotent, omnipresent worker of miracles. Imagine as you sit with Him, asking Him to go back in time and correct the gene, so it doesn’t affect your future.

Imagine a trauma, or a hurt and you can go back and change it, or even go forward in time to stop it from developing and doing any further damage. Perhaps you have an addiction. What if you could go back and stop it, before it starts, or finish it where it is? Why not? Is God not the worker of miracles? Is God not able? God is capable of anything. He’s in the past, the present and the future, all at the same time. And so too, are we, if we are with God.

We can do nothing but what the Father does, however we sit with Him and we can give voice. Imagine going back in time and turning events which prevent a war, or going forward and abruptly ending a war, or changing the events to that war, that your loved ones may be saved.

What if God shows you something and you don’t like what you see? Can you imagine going back in time and changing the event before it happens? Changing debt and bondage, intentionally shaking it off and declaring financial increase, bringing peace and not the storm.

How many ministers have you heard, who’ve said the ceiling opened and they we’re pulled out of the room and taken somewhere else? If you look online, you’ll find them. This isn’t available only to ministers. It’s available to anyone who sits at the right hand of the Father.

What if you began to believe those bible verses, which speak of being in different times and different locations? It shows in Joshua, where God stopped time as the sun stood still. Ezekiel begged God for more time and it was granted to him, as Isiah cried out to the Lord and He turned the shadow of the sun ten degrees backward.

Elijah carried by a whirlwind to heaven. Jacob viewed angels ascending and descending on a ladder. The Mount of Transfiguration where past, present and future come together, sealed with the presence of God. The miracle mountain, where Jesus stood with Moses and Elijah as Peter and John watched on. Peter and John, now part of the miracle, just as we too are to be part of a miracle for someone else, somewhere else.

I could tell you of my experiences, but would you believe them? You have to believe first and that’s with anything in the bible. You won’t see God move, until you believe. You won’t see angels, if you don’t believe, neither will you see time bend, unless you believe.

Paul said in 2 Corinthians 12:7; “I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago - whether in the body I do not know, or whether out of the body I do not know, but God knows – such a one was caught up to the third heaven.”

God declares He is God and there is none like Him (Isaiah 46:9). The council of the Lord stands forever… (Psalm 33:11). God, who can move into any era, knows His word will move forever forward, providing a portal into the future.

Philip was physically teleported. Acts 8:39; …the Spirit of the Lord suddenly took Philip away. John wrote in Revelation 21:12 I saw a Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God… . God gave John visions of many things, including the return of Christ, seeing and experiencing what hasn’t happened yet.

The bible invites us to imagine and learn and the well-written history of time travel within it, too, is an invitation to seek. It doesn’t matter whether you travel physically, or the heavens open and you see a vision. Either way, you can travel through time and cause change. Faith is our time machine. You won’t get there without faith.

Faith, the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Just as God made Adam out of the dirt and that dirt left an imprint, a shadow, so too is the bible a shadow of the things of God. To see them for ourselves; that is the substance and we only get there through faith.
