God Is The Author Of Time
Gen. 1:5; Ps. 74: 16
God created time. Evening, morning, night and day are time oriented. While He is the author of time; He is not a time bound being. He is always on time. God’s time is perfect and the best. Never too early or too late. Like talents and treasures, God has given or allocated a specific amount of time to everybody. Every believer has the personal responsibility to supervise, manage, administer or use God’s time with prudence and wisdom to the glory of God. Time is so precious and important that once lost or wasted it can never be regained. Therefore, there is no room or place for wasting time if we are going to give the best account of our stewardship (Rom. 14:12). We often err by spending too much on things that may be good in themselves but which keep us from the better or the best. Let us set our priorities right.
POINT OF EMPHASIS: Time is so precious and important that once lost or wasted, it can never be regained.
PRAYER POINT: O Lord, grant me wisdom to use the time You gave me judiciously to the glory of Your name. Amen.
