The mighty men of Israel have fallen in a great slaughter against Philistines during a battle at Mount Gilboa. Their King Saul, along with his three sons and thousands of Israel soldiers have been brutally killed. Their bodies will be desecrated and stripped of weapons and any other adornment. Saul's head and armor is sent throughout the Philistine kingdom as a gruesome trophy of their victory over Israel. His skull is mounted in the temple of Dagon as a glorious symbol of victory for their pagan god. Israel is in great turmoil. The house of Judah prepares to make David king over them while the house of Benjamin remain loyal to the house of Saul. Saul's only remaining son Ish-bosheth is appointed king over Israel by Abner, a senior commander in his father's army. This rift plunges Israel into a civil war, as the Kingdom of Israel is divided between David, and the unfortunate Ish-bosheth, whose reign is short lived. The nation is in desperate need of true wisdom and divine guidance. And so, according to the prophetic word of their father Jacob, along come the sons of Issachar! It is during this sensitive and pivotal time in the history of God's chosen nation, that God causes the Sons of Issachar to step forward, to exercise unmatched wisdom and influence in knowing what 'Israel ought to do'. David has weapons and warriors aplenty, but it is not until the Tribe of Issachar comes on board, that the establishment of a unified and peaceful Kingdom becomes a reality. It is Issachar's influence, coupled with the prophetic discernment of times and seasons that will become David's greatest weapon. In this prophetic time, I believe that God is still raising Issachars who are operating under the unction and anointing of the Holy Spirit to release wisdom and accurate understanding of times and seasons. It is they who carry the strategies to establish His Kingdom in every sphere of life, across society and nations. They are graced to navigate with skill and grace through seasons of turmoil and uncertainty, and to bring forth success, fruitfulness and glory. This book is a systematic unpacking of the variations of times and seasons in the lives of individuals, communities, ministries, and even business. You will also be inspired and empowered by a remarkable journey into the life and prophetic gifts of the mystery tribe of Issachar.
