Are you becoming? Can you honestly say that you used your last year efficiently?
Time is life.
Every time a year passes, we are basically measuring time. A year is the passing of
time in our cultures is an opportunity to define your priorities.
A new year is an opportunity to refine your purpose; to go back and check it; to
redefine the vision of your life, to see if you are still on course or need to adjust.
reestablish objectives that are worth it, because there are some of our objectives that no longer are
they are only worth being pursued. For you to bury the past and move forward to a new future.
New Year.
Time is a blessing or a curse, depending on how I manage it.
Time is life. If I ask you how old you are, what I am asking is: what is the
Your life? You can say my life is so many years. We measure life in terms of time.
We define by time. Life is measured by time. Because life is determined by what
we do with time. Life is lived in time. Life is qualified by time and life
it is also the passage of time. What you become totally depends on how you use it.
Time. Life is also stopped by time. When you die, time stops, you exit time.
and enters what we call eternity. In essence, death is life leaving time.
Time is temporary, but life is eternal. We have been placed in time to live a portion of
life.
Time is an interruption in eternity. A small measure of eternity. It is a piece
from eternity. It is a slice of forever, with a beginning and an end. It is a limited period
by which an action or a process exists or happens. It is a measure of space.
Time itself has its power. Ec 3:10-12
Beautiful = mature. God matures everything in His time. God created time, but He does not live in it.
God lives in the forever, but He places us in time. He designed time to make the
easier life for us. God created time to give a piece of eternity, a measure. And
he put on him. And God created time for us to live in it, to be able to experience relief
from eternity.
If you lived in eternity, it is a difficult place to live. Because God told Adam not to
to touch the tree of life. And the first thing God did was to expel him from the garden and put a
cherubim to protect the tree of life. If Adam had been able to reach that tree
after we sinned we would be done. Because if we made a mistake in eternity it is a mistake
eternal.
The creation of time. Gn 1.14-15,18 time is good.
The limitation of time–Job 14:5-7 God has set limits that we cannot surpass.
That’s why it’s better to be saved now!!! Psalm 39:4; 90:12; Ecclesiastes 8:6
Time measures life in past, present and future.
Time changes everything. Nothing is permanent over time.
Time is the only wealth on earth given equally to every human being. It is the only asset that everyone
human being has. We do not possess the same amount of money, but the same
amount of time. So the key to life is what you become in life is determined
and how you use the time you have. That's why the term SPEND TIME. Time is a currency.
Every human has the same amount every day. Time as currency must be spent.
That is why time is used to buy life.
Even if you are broke, you use your time to be broke. If you are fat, you use the
your time eating the wrong thing. You are using your time not running. Time determines
everything. If your marriage is going badly, it's because you haven't been using your time well with your
marriage.
Time is so powerful that what you invest your time in is what you become!
WE CAN TREAT TIME AS MONEY:
WE CAN HAVE OUR TIME STOLEN;
CAN BE ABUSED
CAN BE LOST
CAN BE WASTED
CAN BE DEPRECIATED
CAN BE DEVALUED
YOU CAN DEVALUE YOUR LIFE BY THE THINGS YOU SPEND IT ON
TIME. WITH WHOM ARE WE SPENDING TIME.
CAN BE REVALUED. WE CAN INCREASE THE VALUE OF OUR TIME BY CHOOSING
WHAT TO DO WITH HIM. IF I DON'T HAVE MONEY AND YOU DON'T HAVE IT YOU ARE BAD COMPANY
KKK - ADJUSTING RELATIONSHIPS. ROMANCE BOOKS DON'T TAKE YOU TO YOUR
OBJECTIVE.
WE ARE VICTIMS OF TIME. SL 90.10
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH TIME:
YOU CAN MANAGE, USE, INVEST, CONVERT. USE TIME TO DEVELOP.
BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTING THINGS. YOU CAN MAKE YOUR LIFE VALUABLE BY HOW YOU USE IT.
TIME. YOU CAN USE TIME TO FULFILL YOUR DIVINE PURPOSE. TIME IS A GIFT
For this reason it says: "Awake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you." Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
REMINDING TIME = REDEEM/OWN AGAIN. YOU HAD A TIME, NOW SPEND IT
THIS TIME CONQUERING WHAT YOU LOSE, THROUGH HABIT CHANGES,
CUTTING SOME FRIENDSHIPS THAT TAKE YOU NOWHERE, I NOW DO NOT HAVE
A NORMAL LIFE BECAUSE I LOST SOME TIME AND I NEED TO REGAIN IT. REDEEM THE
TIME IS TO WORK HARDER, BE MORE FOCUSED AND DISCIPLINED, GET RID OF
SOME THINGS THAT WERE SO GOOD AND PLEASANT TO DO THINGS THAT ARE
IMPORTANT.
I WILL RECHECK THE TIME. TO REPOSSESS, TO REQUIRE, TO FULFILL THE PROMISE I MADE
TO THE SAME. CONVERT TIME INTO VALUE. PAY AN EXTRAORDINARY DEBT.
PAY A DEBT THAT YOU HAVE, NOT ONLY WITH GOD, BUT WITH YOUR LIFE. IF YOU
YOU WASTED 5 YEARS, YOU OWE A DEBT TO YOURSELF, YOU NEED TO PAY IT BACK
IF EVEN THE TIME YOU LOST.
EF 5:14-19 – MAKE THE MOST OF EVERY OPPORTUNITY.
I WILL TAKE POSSESSION AND CONTROL YOUR TIME, CONVERTING IT INTO OPPORTUNITY
TO FULFILL YOUR PURPOSE; TO CREATE VALUE IN YOUR LIFE.
HOW TO CONTROL TIME
PLANNING. YOU MUST PLAN YOUR DAY OR IT WILL BE PLANNED BY ANOTHER PERSON;
TIME, LIKE ANY OTHER ASSET, MUST BE PROTECTED.
THERE MUST BE A FOCUS, A VISION, IT MUST BE MEASURED IN RESULTS.
10 KEYS TO REDEEM TIME:
1–DOCUMENT A PLAN. WHAT I WANT TO ACHIEVE.
Establish your priorities. Based on this plan.
PURSUE ONLY YOUR PASSION. IDENTIFY YOUR PASSION AND GO AFTER IT. BECAUSE MANY WILL
IT DISTRACTS YOU AND IT'S BETTER FOR YOU TO STAY WITH YOUR PASSION. NOT EVERY INVITE/OPPORTUNITY IS WORTH IT.
A blessing.
The biggest weapon of the devil against a disciplined man and woman is distraction.
AND NOT THE SIN. THE DEVIL KNOWS THAT YOU ARE TOO SMART TO SIN. SO HE MAKES
SOMETHING MORE DANGEROUS, IT DISTRACTS YOU TO DO THINGS YOU SHOULDN'T, ALTHOUGH
BE GOOD. THE ENEMY OF DOING SOMETHING RIGHT IS DOING SOMETHING GOOD, AND NOT...
EVERY GOOD THING IS RIGHT.
PROTECT YOUR PLANS AND YOUR PRIORITIES.
5 IDENTIFY YOUR VALUE. IDENTIFY WHAT IS VALUABLE TO YOU.
MAKE DECISIONS BASED ON YOUR DESTINY. IF YOU KNOW WHERE YOU WANT TO GO THEN
PROJECT YOUR DECISIONS ACCORDINGLY, BECAUSE EVERYONE WANTS YOUR TIME.
7–MAKE AN INVENTORY OF YOUR ASSOCIATIONS. MAKE A LIST OF ALL THE PEOPLE
AND ORGANIZATIONS EVERYWHERE TO CHECK WHICH ONES TAKE YOU TO YOURS
VISION.
8 - REVISE YOUR INVESTMENTS. WHAT AM I INVESTING MY TIME IN?
9–DO NOT TRY TO PLEASE EVERYONE. JESUS SAID: I LIVE TO PLEASE MY FATHER.
10–FORGET THE PAST AND PURSUE AND DESIGN THE FUTURE. BECOME AN ARCHITECT OF
LIFE. OR ELSE YOU WILL LIVE ANOTHER PERSON'S YEAR.
