Don’t Push Salvation Forward To Another Time
Jam. 4:13-16
“Not now, there is no time, I will try and create or find time”. These comments are true of people who have failed to manage their time or rather manage themselves very well. Everybody has 24 hours per day. If others can achieve purpose and their targets (goals) within the set time, you too can and should. Do not procrastinate your itinerary. Procrastination is the thief of time. This life will soon pass away, when will you come to the Lord? The Psalmist says man is like a breath, his days are like a passing shadow (Ps. 144:4). Do not boast about tomorrow for you do not know what a day will bring. So you who say” today or tomorrow we will go up into such and such a town and spend a year and trade and make a profit” yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. A stitch in time saves nine, so whatever you have to do, do quickly. Now is the accepted time of salvation, tomorrow might be too late for you. Repent now!
POINT OF EMPHASIS: Do not boast about tomorrow for you do not know what a day might bring.
PRAYER POINT: Oh Lord deliver me from the habit of procrastination and help me to achieve purpose and goals at the right time.
