Romans 13:11 (NKJV)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAnd do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Bible says, \u201cIt\u2019s high time to awake,\u201d which means you have slept enough. It\u2019s day time. You\u2019ve stayed long enough in the place of sluggish existence. It\u2019s time for change. It\u2019s time to come out of dazed sluggish living. It\u2019s enough. How long shall we move through life in slow motion? How long shall we procrastinate and debate, rather than actively engage with life? For those who understand the times and seasons, they know that we are running out of time. What we thought was our future is now our yesterday. We\u2019ve spent too much time in feet-dragging in our day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The end is near. We are closer to our salvation now than when we first started this journey. Each day brings us closer to the night. Make the best of your day, because you don\u2019t have today again tomorrow. When your night comes, it\u2019s over. No more chances. No more opportunities. We cannot keep sleeping in our day. We can\u2019t keep being sluggish in our day. Maximize your day. Maximize life before the night comes. Be discerning because time is against us. Live life to the full, in your day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cLord, I know my day is running out and my final encounter with You is closer today than it was yesterday. Teach me to live my day fully. Deliver me from sleepy and sluggish living. In Your name I pray. Amen.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
