Latest from the blog

  • A white marble pillar standing in a temple of light, the golden city glowing behind it under a sapphire sky, carrying the Time Is At Hand name and address

    Overcoming Obstacles: Part Seven

    Revelation 3:12 makes the overcomer a pillar in the temple of God, and writes three names upon him — the name of God, the name of His city, and Christ's own new name. Without God, life is a journey into the unknown; with Christ, it becomes a journey of courage and progression.

  • A white robe of light floating beneath golden rays on a deep crimson sky, carrying the Time Is At Hand name and address

    Overcoming Obstacles: Part Six

    Revelation 3:5 holds out three things to the one who overcomes — white raiment, a name that is not blotted out of the book of life, and a name confessed before the Father. White is the colour of heaven, and the robe is not one we can weave for ourselves.

  • The morning star burning over dark hills with first light along the horizon, carrying the Time Is At Hand name and address

    Overcoming Obstacles: Part Five

    Revelation 2:26-28 closes with three gifts for the one who overcomes and keeps His works unto the end — judgment according to their works, power over the nations, and the morning star. Christ Himself says who that star is.

  • Motes of light falling through a warm violet night, one brighter than the rest, carrying the Time Is At Hand name and address

    Overcoming Obstacles: Part Four

    Revelation 2:17 promises the overcomer three things — the hidden manna, a white stone, and a new name written in it. Each one is a reward of victory, and each is only for those who endure to the end.

  • Light breaking downward through a dark sky in gold, teal and deep indigo, carrying the Time Is At Hand name and address

    Overcoming Obstacles: Part Three

    Overcoming the obstacle of sin is the greatest challenge of life — not because it is so difficult, but because the enemy of the soul exploits our ignorance. Revelation 2:11 makes the overcomer a promise about the second death.

  • 1 John 5:4 — 'This is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith' — set over the Time Is At Hand emblem

    Overcoming Obstacles: Part Two

    "He that overcometh" is one of the most repeated phrases in Revelation. Scripture names what must be overcome — sin, the world, the mark of the beast — and names what is given to the one who does.

  • Matthew 24:13 — 'But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved' — set over the Time Is At Hand emblem

    Overcoming Obstacles

    Life is a journey with many obstacles, challenges and pains. Christ does not promise a road without tribulation — He promises that He has already overcome the world, and calls us to endure to the end even as He endured.

  • Isaiah 1:5 — 'The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint' — set over the Time Is At Hand emblem

    Mental Health Failure

    The crisis the nations are facing will not be solved in parliament, in the courts, or in the conference halls. Isaiah names the seat of the trouble: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.

  • Daybreak breaking over the curve of the earth, the lights of inhabited places scattered across the night side, carrying the Time Is At Hand name and address

    Saving Health for All Nations

    Psalm 67 asks God for mercy, blessing and the light of His face — and then it says why: that His way may be known upon earth, and His saving health among all nations. The prayer of the church has to be that wide.

  • Ribbons of green and gold light flowing across a deep teal ground, carrying the Time Is At Hand name and address

    The Temple You Live In

    God wishes us to prosper, to be in health, and to prosper in soul — and Scripture ties the three together. The body is not our own property to treat as we please, and its care is part of the work of restoration.

    Ministry of Healing

    Many things contribute to good health — cheerfulness, fresh air, exercise, diet, and our relationships with other people. Crucial also is a personal relationship with the Creator who gave us life.

About TIAH

An international ministry that began with one series of meetings

Time Is At Hand Evangelistic Ministries began in September 1999 with a series of evangelistic meetings in the Cayman Islands. Since then we have grown into an international evangelistic ministry working across Africa, the Philippines, the Caribbean and Europe.

Alongside the preaching we feed the poor, help orphanages and send children to school — reaching people on the ground in a practical way, raising their standard of living, and then pointing them to Christ, the way, the truth and the life.

All devotionals
Except Ye See – John 4:48

John 4:48

Except Ye See

Trouble brought the nobleman to Christ. Sometimes the trial we would never choose becomes the blessing that draws us close to the Saviour.

Except A Man – John 3:5

John 3:5

Except A Man

Water baptism is the public declaration. But there is a deeper baptism — of the Holy Ghost and fire — without which no one enters the kingdom of God.

Except Ye Abide – John 15:4

John 15:4

Except Ye Abide

However good the branch may appear, the moment it is severed from the vine it begins to wither. Fruit is the evidence of connection, not effort.

Except Ye Repent – Luke 13:5

Luke 13:5

Except Ye Repent

Calamity is not a verdict on the sufferer. It is a summons to the onlooker. Instead of judging others, we are called to look into ourselves and repent.

Except Ye Abide In – Acts 27:31

Acts 27:31

Except Ye Abide In

When Euroclydon strikes, seamanship, rank and wealth are all useless. The old ship of Zion is battered but it will make harbour — and safety is found aboard.

Except Ye Be Converted – Matthew 18:3

Matthew 18:3

Except Ye Be Converted

The disciples argued about rank. Christ answered with a child. Greatness in the kingdom is not the ability to be better than others, but the willingness to be humble.

Questions

Questions about the everlasting gospel and the Three Angels’ Messages

What is Time Is At Hand Evangelistic Ministries?

Time Is At Hand Evangelistic Ministries (TIAH) is an international evangelistic ministry founded in September 1999 in the Cayman Islands by Devon and Vanrica Searchwell. It shares the everlasting gospel through verse-by-verse Bible study, evangelistic campaigns and practical welfare work across Africa, the Philippines, the Caribbean and Europe.

What does “the time is at hand” mean?

The phrase comes from Revelation 1:3 and Revelation 22:10 — “blessed is he that readeth… for the time is at hand.” It means the events of Bible prophecy are near enough to act on now. Scripture uses the same urgency elsewhere: the coming of the Lord is at hand, and the day of the Lord is at hand. It is a call to read, understand and be ready rather than to set dates.

What are the Three Angels’ Messages?

They are the three proclamations of Revelation 14:6–12. The first angel carries the everlasting gospel to every nation, kindred, tongue and people, calling us to fear God and give glory to Him because the hour of His judgment is come, and to worship the Creator. The second announces that Babylon is fallen. The third warns against receiving the mark of the beast.

What is the everlasting gospel?

The everlasting gospel is the same message from age to age — in simple terms, repentance towards God and faith in Christ for salvation (Mark 1:15). Revelation 14:6 describes it being preached to every nation, kindred, tongue and people. It is the first of the Three Angels’ Messages and the heart of what this ministry preaches.

What does “the hour of His judgment is come” mean?

It is the announcement of the first angel in Revelation 14:7. This ministry understands it as the judgment-hour message: a work of investigative judgment beginning in the heavenly sanctuary before Christ returns, which is why the appeal is to fear God, give glory to Him and worship the Creator now.

What is the mark of the beast?

Revelation 14:9–11 warns against receiving the mark of the beast. This ministry teaches it as a mark of allegiance in the final conflict over worship — the opposite of the seal of God — and studies it in context alongside the Three Angels’ Messages rather than in isolation. The full exposition is in the study on the everlasting gospel.

Where can I find free Bible studies on Daniel and Revelation?

All of the ministry’s Bible studies are free to read online, including verse-by-verse studies on the Book of Daniel chapters 1 to 10, the sanctuary, the mystery of the eternal Godhead, the origins of evil and getting to know Jesus. Printable PDF booklets and a twelve-lesson Bible study course are also free to download.

Where can I watch Time Is At Hand sermons and follow the ministry?

Full messages and campaign highlights are published on the ministry’s official YouTube channel, and shorter encouragements, verses and photographs from the field are shared on Instagram and Facebook — all linked from every page of this site. Written articles and updates are published on the ministry blog.

How can I support the ministry?

Time Is At Hand is a faith-based ministry reliant on the generosity of individuals. You can give towards evangelistic projects, orphan care, schools and poor families, or church building — you can sponsor a child from £10 a month — and you can support the team in prayer.

How do I contact Time Is At Hand?

Email info@timeisathandlive.org or message +44 7955 576995, which is available by WhatsApp, telephone or SMS. The contact page also has dedicated forms for prayer requests, Bible questions, testimonies and speaking invitations.

Sponsor a Child

Would you support an orphaned child?

Regular giving keeps children fed, sheltered and in school — and keeps the ministry able to plan.
