Redeeming The Time

Believers can’t know what a day may bring, but we can plan our days so we use opportunities wisely.

Eph.5:15-17 – See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

Life is short. The days are evil. How foolish to waste opportunities to win the lost, to work for The Lord. If the days were evil when Paul wrote to the Ephesians, what must they be today?

The will of God isn’t mysterious. It doesn’t rule out clear thinking. We discover the will of God as He transforms the mind (Rom. 1:1-2). This transformation is the result of reading the Word, prayer, meditation,  worship,  gathering facts, examining them, weighing them, and praying for His wisdom.
