Ephesians 5:1-17
Redeeming time is just as important than anything else in the Bible.
Take seriously your work in the Lord, and do a good job.
“Time will tell” how much importance you place on certain activities.
Keep in mind that you only get the time that the Lord gives.
2 Kings 18:1-7 | 2 Kings 20:1-11
Matthew 24:1-14
The Lord gives us a forecast of what is to come – take heed, and be wise.
How do you redeem time for God? Start doing things for Christ that you didn’t use to do.
Redeeming time for Christ takes action (praying, calling, encouraging, etc).
2 Timothy 2:15 | James 1:2 | Psalm 150:6 | Romans 8:28 | Philippians 2:14-15
Hebrews 10:36 | James 1:12
To redeem time for God, be better. Be a better judge of how to spend and use time.
Use the time that the Lord gives in a way that is pleasing to Him.
