DO YOU HAVE ANY TIME FOR GOD? Prt 1

in #steemchurch7 years ago

What is time? The English dictionary defines time as “the passing of day, week, monthand year.” People say time is money, some say time is previous, still others say time waits no body. But my question to you is this DO YOU HAVE ANY TIME FOR GOD? in your tight schedule, do you have any time for God? Remember our definition of time includes days, weeks, months and years. I’m each of the above list of time, do you have any time for the things of God?

NOTE THE ANALYSIS OF TIME

  • twelve months in a year.
  • fifty two weeks in a year.
  • three hundred and sixty five days in a year.
  • twenty four hours in a day.
  • eight thousand and seven hundred and sixty hours in a year.

Remember time is God’s gift to man. What do you do with this gift of time?
We will one day give God an account how we used this gift of time. Considering the events of the day, Paul wrote to the Ephesians to redeem the time because the dashboard are evil.

Ephesians 5:16

Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

Another version put it this way.... use every chance you have for doing good... “what do you do with your own chance?” Smoking, drinking, lying, stealing, fighting, quarreling, gossiping, fornicating or cheating? You have time for the above list of sins. But what time do you have for God? In the book of romans, the apostle Paul calls this time “HIGH TIME

Romans 13:11

And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.

In the first Corinthians, he called it a short time.
We actually don’t need anyone to remind us how important time is to us right now. Most especially in this our generation which is the laodecian age (the people’s right) no body wants to be corrected and no body wants to correct any body too.
While all this is going on, the coming of our lord Jesus is fast approaching. Let’s not be carried out with the things of the world too much, the coming of Christ is imminent.
I decided to talk about this time, because this is the begging of a new week, and if we don’t know why we’re here on earth, it will be so bad. Our main goal here on earth is to serve the Lord and keep his commandments, then every other things should be secondary.
Also, there’s a promis that’s attached to this which says. Seek ye first the kingdom of God and every other thing shall be added.
I think this is a very massive topic, as I will be talking on it subsequently. However, let’s stay focused on the things of God which are eternal less we’ll have ourselves to blame.
Thanks once again for stopping by to partake from this spiritual food. Enjoy the rest of your week and stay blessed.
Remember to always come around for subsequent posts.
God bless you.

It's vital we create time for important things. Thanks for sharing this because our salvation is dependent on this.

great notification from you a debt of gratitude is in order for sharing

'Seek ye the kingdom of God and it's righteousness and all other things shall be added unto us', God only wants to have a fellowship with us so whatever we do with our time, we should make sure God is part of it

How will you say you know God when you don't create time for him, we must create intimacy with God, is very important

our God is gracious, He surrendered 24hours a day to everybody and He left us with a choice on how we make use of the time. We need to devote part of our time every day to have communion with God no matter how tight our schedule is. One thing about God is that; He is not a time waster. He will always reward those that dedicate their time to Him.

Powerful word very good indeed that it is very important to use well the gift of time that God gave us to dedicate to Him. Thanks for sharing.

Dedicate the time he deserves to God he gave us this gift to praise him thanks for sharing
