MY FRIENDS, THE MOST DANGEROUS WORD IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE IS TOMORROW!!!

Procrastination-Jan-2014-post3Webster defines the most dangerous word in the English language, tomorrow: as the day following today now let’s go to the second most dangerous word in English language which is procrastination. Webster defines that word as one who defers taken action; or maybe just delays it.

Well what about God, when we ask and what we ask for is not immediately granted or He waits till tomorrow. Well we cannot “forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:8-9 (NKJV)

So my friends, what that text tells me is, that tomorrow and procrastination are words defined only for created beings with finite imgresminds and limited understanding of the universe, beings who have a vision but are unable to carry it out due to a lack of motivation from within, and that my friends defines the majority not the minority.

But as a Child of God we must never cease to place, God at the forefront and never put off tomorrow or procrastinate about what we must do for Christ today. Our vision to serve God must never cease.

In addition, “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.” Ephesians 5:15-17 (ESV)

Could have been, Writers of many books, Students striving for excellence, Athletes, Artist, Architects, politicians, Lawyers, Doctors, Minsters of God, Bible imagesworkers and the list goes on of men and women who continued to say tomorrow, but let’s not leave out the most important of all the character traits of, I could have, should have been.

And that is the opportunity today, to repent and forgive and allow self to die today as we become  “crucified with Christ as we no longer live, but Christ lives in us, and the life we now live in the body, we now live by faith in the Son of God, who loved each of us and gave himself for us.” Gal 2:20 (NIV Paraphrased)

But you tell yourself tomorrow, God can wait he has waited for 20 or 30 or 40 or 50 or 60 or 70 or 80 or 90 or maybe even a hundred years, He can continued to wait he’s God. But my friends today must be the new tomorrow and it must be all about God’s will not our lack of will because we are spending God’s precious time on self.

In addition, our time must be spent in God’s word, along with taken God’s vision for His children too whatever heights and levels that may be, whether reading, writing or arithmetic, your vision, God’s goals.

“So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. Give no offense to Jews or to Greeks or to the images41church of God, just as I try to please everyone in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved. 1 Cor 10:31-33

My friends, at the end of the day it must be “all to the glory of God” that “many may be saved” because we are “not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed a righteousness that is by faith from first to last,…” Rom. 1:16-17

So today God tells His chosen who are now his anchors in the 21st century  “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and [vision] and follow me.” Matt. 16:24 (NIV) Not tomorrow or when you think the time is right, but today. Pablo Picasso says it best when he tells us too “only put off tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.”

 

So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
