Words of Encouragement for Every New Day ~ 28 Nov 2008

Maximize your time on earth. Jesus did and He only lived for 33yrs. Imagine if everyone in this world was driven to maximize time for the Lord. The World would definitely be a different place. Today, God is challenging each one of us to raise the bar, raise the standard, to not waste anymore time, and start taking action. Jeremiah 46:3 Prepare your shields, both large and small, and march out for battle! We have to start preparing our shields. If God is saying to you to get in the mud, get dirty, and walk in places of darkness for the Lord, then are you obeying? The Lord says that only a few walk though the narrow gate, and the majority walks through the wide gate. Which one are you? On a constant basis we must ask ourselves and have a self check, If God came today, would I be ready or am I totally unprepared? Being unprepared is saying to God, I didn’t have enough time to reach out to that person, God you didn’t give me enough time to fulfill that purpose. Ephesians 6:16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. We have to realize that being efficient and effective for the Kingdom of God means being 100% prepared for the flaming arrows that the evil one throws at us. Are we extinguishing them? Or are we being burned, drained, tired, and suffocating by the enemy’s work? We know the exact answer to these questions. Let us raise the bar today. Let us not waste anymore time. The day of the Lord is unknown, are we maximizing every single day for the Lord? © 2008 Shaun Lee. www.everynation.org.sg archive: www.shauntzen.blogspot.com
