Got Time?

You have to give something to get something, even if it’s “free” it takes time to receive it. Time is valuable and how we spend it will determine how rich we really are. Not just in material things but in every area of life - spiritually, mentally, physically, financially and especially in our relationships. It takes time to increase and if we waste our time then we waste our lives. At any given moment we are either investing in or squandering our future. Expecting a return without an investment is ignorant. We’ve all been given the same 24/7 and will give an account of our stewardship. If we spend it wisely we will win and if we don’t we won’t. That’s why having and keeping a schedule is vital for success. You know the old saying, “to fail to plan is to plan to fail.” With so many people failing in one area or another what does that tell you?

God is the Master planner and architect of the universe and He has a plan for you life. He is able to orchestrate every detail from the greatest to the least. The sound of “your symphony” will be determined by how well you follow the Conductor. If you seek Him, pray and obey everyday then things will begin to go your way, He’ll show you what to do and what to say, and if you don’t they likely won’t. There are just too many details and unknown variables to deal with but if you’ll apply P.I.E. then you can learn to fly. With God in charge the sky’s the limit but you’re not going up without Him in it. They say, “Time flies” but how about you? It depends on with it what you do.

Apply P.I.E.
Pray – read and write, talk and listen
Itemize – write it down!
P.S. It!
Prioritize
Strategize
Exercise – do it, perform, accomplish, fulfill

PIE90 Scripture:

Eccl 3:1
To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:



Acts 17:24-29
24 God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands. 25 Nor is He worshiped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things. 26 And He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their preappointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings, 27 so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us; 28 for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, 'For we are also His offspring.'
NKJV

Ps 31:15
15 My times are in Your hand;
Deliver me from the hand of my enemies,
And from those who persecute me.
NKJV

Ps 31:15
5 Hour by hour I place my days in your hand,
safe from the hands out to get me.
MES

Ps 31:15a
My future is in your hands…
NLT

Eccl 3:1-17

1 To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:

2 A time to be born,
And a time to die;
A time to plant,
And a time to pluck what is planted;
3 A time to kill,
And a time to heal;
A time to break down,
And a time to build up;
4 A time to weep,
And a time to laugh;
A time to mourn,
And a time to dance;
5 A time to cast away stones,
And a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace,
And a time to refrain from embracing;
6 A time to gain,
And a time to lose;
A time to keep,
And a time to throw away;
7 A time to tear,
And a time to sew;
A time to keep silence,
And a time to speak;
8 A time to love,
And a time to hate;
A time of war,
And a time of peace.

9 What profit has the worker from that in which he labors? 10 I have seen the God-given task with which the sons of men are to be occupied. 11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end.

12 I know that nothing is better for them than to rejoice, and to do good in their lives, 13 and also that every man should eat and drink and enjoy the good of all his labor — it is the gift of God.

14 I know that whatever God does,
It shall be forever.
Nothing can be added to it,
And nothing taken from it.
God does it, that men should fear before Him.
15 That which is has already been,
And what is to be has already been;
And God requires an account of what is past.

16 Moreover I saw under the sun:

In the place of judgment,
Wickedness was there;
And in the place of righteousness,
Iniquity was there.

17 I said in my heart,

"God shall judge the righteous and the wicked,
For there is a time there for every purpose and for every work."
NKJV
