Stewarding Your Time


Listen Later

Time is something we all have been given the same amount of but don’t all use the same way. God wants us to be mindful of how we use our time so that we make the most of the time that we have been given.

Ephesians 5:15-16

“Watch carefully” — This means to pay careful attention or be keenly aware of something.
“Unwise/wise” — Wisdom and foolishness are an important matter of interest here. There is a way to live that is wise, and there is a way to live that is foolish. Each day, we can consider how we choose to live.
“Making the best use of the time” — The Greek word means “to buy up,” and in the context, it means to make the most of every opportunity. To buy up time means to metaphorically purchase that time for a purpose, and that purpose is to do “the will of the Lord” (v. 17).
“The days are evil” — This refers to the fact that “the days” are filled with darkness and are characterized by the activity of this present evil age in which we live.

Romans 13:11-14

We must be those who are aware of the “time.” It is time for us to be alive and active with respect to the good news and our trust in the Lord Jesus, not dormant and complacent. Now is the time to put on the “armor of light” and “the Lord Jesus Christ.”

Psalm 90:12 — We want to obtain a heart of wisdom!

Proverbs 6:1-5 — There is a right time to act and not wait.

How do we make the best use of our time?

1. Set proper priorities.
2. Strive to grow.
3. Seize the opportunity.
