“And the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do.” 1 Chronicles 12:32a (KJV)
We live in a time bound earth, hence, we are time bound. Time is governed by certain laws. You must understand and master these laws if you must maximise your time. Time is universal for everybody. 24 hours is same in length and quality in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, as it is in Kiev, Ukraine. Time cannot be reversed or paused.
Time comes in seasons, each of which has its own opportunities and challenges. How much of these laws have you mastered and applied in your use of time?
We cannot afford to lead a careless life. God created each one of us with a purpose in mind, which is to fulfil our roles in advancing his Kingdom. Unfortunately, many of us spend our lifetime chasing shadows, thereby missing out on God’s purpose and plans for us, and ultimately jeopardizing eternity. There is no better time to accomplish our plans and carry out our tasks than now because opportunity will not wait for those who fail to act on them. Time is a gift that we must grab with both hands.
God demands that we become wise and make the best use of the time that we have because the days are evil (Eph. 5:15- 16). If we must redeem the time, we must act swiftly and act now. How best can you use your time? Use it in service to God. Give quality time in fellowship with God. Serve in the house of God. Win souls. Become like the sons of Issachar who became leaders over many because they understood the times. Redeem the time and enjoy a fulfilled life.
REMEMBER TO ATTEND: MAP Meeting (Home Fellowship) tomorrow
PRAYER: Lord, enable me to make the best use of my time and opportunities in service to you and others in Jesus name.
FAITH BYTE: I live a life of purpose because I make good use of my time
