TIME

Ps 90:12 So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

A- God has a plan / Time does not affect our God - Eternal

1- He has a plan for mankind - redemption - immortality / destruction - second death

Rom 2:6-8 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: But

unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

2- He has a plan for you / individual

Acts 9:11-15

-God had a plan for Saul as an individual

1 Cor 12:11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

-God wants to use everyone for the kingdom work

B - We need a plan-/ Time does affect us - We do not need to drift aimlessly

1 - As a people we need

a- Truth - for us and our children

b- Holiness beyond ‘the law’

c- Worship

d- continual checking of corporate growth

2- As individuals

-Same as above -Mention each category above

cannot have corporate without individual

C- Timing and wasted time

Rom 5:6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

1- Timing is very important

a- using a spiritual gift Prov 15:23

b- listening to God

2 Cor 5:18-19 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us

the ministry of reconciliation;

To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and

hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.

1- We have a great work with limited time/no time to waste

Ps 102:11 My days are like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like grass.

James 4:14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that

appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

a- we must take heed to the time we have and find our place of calling and progress there

b- we must never live as if we own tomorrow

remember

Rom 2:6-8 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life: But

unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

*Time for gospel work is now

*Time for commitment to Christ is now
