Consecration Season
Consecration Season is a call to refocus, remove distractions, fast, pray, and seek God first—preparing hearts for purpose, clarity, and divine breakthrough.
The Heart Setting: Seeking First the Kingdom
Consecration always begins on the inside. Jesus said, “Seek first the kingdom of God”—not as a suggestion, but as a priority shift. This setting is deeply personal. It’s where we ask the hard question: Where have my priorities been? Consecration here means removing what distracts—habits, mindsets, relationships, even good things that have taken God’s place. It’s the prayer that whispers (or sometimes cries), “I want less of me and more of You, God.” This heart posture isn’t about perfection. It’s about alignment.
The Camp Setting: Preparing for the Miracle (Joshua 3:5) – Consecration Season
Before Israel crossed the Jordan into promise, Joshua gave a simple but weighty instruction:
“Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you.” This setting is the waiting space—the night before the breakthrough. Nothing has changed yet, but everything is about to. Consecration here is intentional cleansing. It’s obedience before evidence. God often asks us to prepare as if we believe Him—because faith shows up before the miracle does.
The Altar Setting: Holy Awareness (Isaiah 6:5) – Consecration Season
Isaiah’s encounter didn’t start with confidence—it started with conviction: “Woe is me… for my eyes have seen the King.” In this setting, consecration happens when we truly see God as holy, holy, holy. His presence exposes what doesn’t belong—not to shame us, but to purify us. This is where fasting and praying go hand in hand. Fasting quiets the flesh; prayer tunes the spirit. Together, they create space for reverence, repentance, and renewal.
The Mission Setting: From Cleansed to Called (Isaiah 6:8)
After the cleansing came the calling: “Whom shall I send?” “Here am I. Send me.” Consecration doesn’t end in isolation—it leads to purpose. God cleans before He commissions. This setting is where we realize that surrender isn’t about losing ourselves; it’s about being positioned for assignment. When we say yes to God, we’re not always given the full plan—just the next step.
The Wilderness Setting: Fasting, Testing, and God’s Voice
Moses fasted forty days before receiving the Ten Commandments. Elijah traveled to Mount Sinai and encountered God—not in wind or fire, but in a still, small voice. Jesus fasted forty days in the wilderness, faced temptation, and overcame the enemy through the power of God’s Word. The wilderness is uncomfortable by design. It strips us of noise and false security. Consecration here is endurance—choosing obedience when it’s quiet, lonely, and hard. This is often where God speaks the clearest—if we’re willing to listen.
The Difficult Season Setting: Hearing God Again
Some seasons are heavy. Confusing. Painful. In those moments, consecration looks like honesty: “God, help me hear Your voice again.” It’s not about dramatic gestures—it’s about daily surrender. Turning down the volume of the world. Turning up the presence of God. Choosing prayer when anxiety is loud. Choosing trust when answers are slow. Consecration in hard seasons keeps our hearts soft and our spirits open.
