Good Morning Sunshine! It Is The Hour of Visitation — Are You Ready?

Luke 19:44 (NKJV) ~ “You did not recognize the time of your visitation.” 

There are moments in life when Heaven comes closer than usual, moments that are marked by the Presence, Power, and prompting of God. These are known as divine visitations. A visitation is not a casual occurrence; it is a holy moment when God steps into time to bring to you revelation, correction, deliverance, or divine alignment into your life. It is a window of opportunity that demands spiritual awareness and response from you. 

Luke 19:44 reveals the lament of Jesus as He wept over Jerusalem, declaring, “You did not recognize the time of your visitation.” Their blindness wasn’t because God was absent, it was because their hearts were not prepared. They missed what was meant to change everything. So many times, you often declare with your mouth, “I’m ready, Lord,” but if God were to show up in this very hour, would your life truly testify that you are? 

Would your spirit rise in surrender, or would your fear cause you to retreat? Would your lamp be trimmed with oil, or would you be caught unprepared, like the foolish virgins in Matthew 25:1–13? The ten virgins all knew the bridegroom was coming, but only five had the foresight and faithfulness to remain ready. The others were locked out, not because of rebellion, but because of spiritual negligence. This parable isn’t about being religiously perfect; it’s about being spiritually prepared. It’s about staying sensitive to the timing and movement of God, even when He seems delayed.

There is a holy urgency in this hour. You are not just living in a season; you are standing on the edge of prophetic fulfillment. God is moving in unusual ways, and He is calling His people (you) into a deeper desire to surrender, a higher discernment, and unwavering obedience. Revelation 3:20 says, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in…” The knock is not always loud; it is often subtle. It may come through a sermon, a dream, a divine interruption, or a burden in prayer. 

But only those who are watching will hear it. This is why Isaiah 55:6 pleads, “Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near.” That verse is telling you that there is an expiration date on every divine moment. If you are not ready when He comes, you risk missing the very thing you’ve been praying for. God is not looking for the loudest voice; He is searching for the readied vessel. Your availability must match your declaration! Your posture must match your profession! It’s easy to say “I surrender, to say I said yes” but true surrender looks like daily obedience, even when it costs you comfort! 

True readiness means you’ve cleared space for God to move and dethroned your own plans so His will can reign. It means that your hands are not too full to receive what He wants to release. This hour of visitation is not just about receiving, it’s about releasing. It’s about letting go of what no longer aligns with your assignment. God is not knocking to entertain you. He is knocking to elevate you. He is coming back with  power, clarity, fire, healing, and commissioning. But you must decide: Will I stay in the familiar, or will I answer the knock and step into the unknown where God is waiting? 

2 Corinthians 6:2 declares, “Now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation.” This is not the hour to delay your destiny. It is the moment to rise, to yield, to prepare. Even Amos 4:12 declares boldly, “Prepare to meet your God, O Israel.” That’s not just a warning; it is an invitation. Are you prepared to meet the God you sing about, the God you post about, the God you pray to? If He walked into your room, into your calling, into your chaos, would He find a vessel who’s been expecting Him? God doesn’t just visit for emotional encounters; He visits to realign your life with divine intention. And when He visits, everything must shift.

This is your clarion call to wake up, trim your lamp, clear your heart, and posture yourself in holy expectation. Say, “Lord, if You’re coming, don’t pass me by. I won’t miss You this time.” Don’t just speak it, live it! Don’t just desire it! Be prepared for it! The hour of visitation is here. Will you recognize it? Or will you miss it? 

Let’s Pray:

Father, in the Name of Jesus, I bow my heart before You as one who does not want to miss You. I confess that I have not always been attentive to Your knock. Father, please forgive me for all the times when I allowed distractions, disappointments, and my own timelines to dull my sensitivity to Your movement. But today, I truly repent. Father, I am returning to You with renewed reverence and open hands. You are the God of visitation, and You come not to flatter but to transform. I want to be ready, Lord, not in theory but in truth. Let my life be found faithful, let my spirit burn with the oil of intimacy, not just the appearance of religious activity. Lord, You said in Luke 12:35–37 that we are to have our lamps burning, ready, dressed for service, watching for the Master’s return. So now I ask You to cleanse me of all that clutters my altar. Purge every delay within me. Remove everything, every distraction that I’ve allowed to keep me from divine alignment. Tear down every idol, break every agreement I’ve made with fear, pride, and complacency. Visit me, O God, and when You come, find me surrendered and yielded. Find me obedient. Find me empty enough to be filled, and humble enough to be used. Father, awaken every sleeping place in my spirit. Light a fresh fire in my heart and revive my ears to hear again. I don’t want to just sense You, I want to follow You. Give me discernment to recognize when You’re near. Give me courage to move when You say move. Give me wisdom to know the difference between Your delays and Your denials. I declare that I am ready, not because of my perfection, but because of God’s Grace. I prepare my spirit, my house, my schedule, and my soul. I say yes to the knock. I open the door, and I invite You to take over. Let this be my hour of visitation. Let this be the moment when everything aligns. Let healing come. Let purpose rise. Let Your Glory rest. Let me never be the same. I seal this prayer in the Matchless, Mighty, Holy, and Powerful Name of Jesus Christ. Amen and Amen! 

Blessings…

Love, Dr. Jean…
