But does it really work? Does changing the outside really change who or what we really are? You be the Judge. In Matthew 25:14-30 the Lord Jesus uses a parable to teach a lesson.
“The Time is at Hand”.
Vs 14 A man and his 3 servants.
Vs 15 Gave each talents according to their ability.
Vs 16-18 Each servant did what he wanted with the talents.
Vs 19 “The Time is at Hand”.
Vs 20-21 The 1st receives his reward.
Vs 22-23 The 2nd receives his reward.
Notice the rewards are based on faithfulness, not on amount accomplished.
Vs 24-30 The 3rd receives his reward.
“The Time is at Hand”.
Not much can be done about last year… Review it, confess your failures, ask God’s forgiveness. Now is the time to look forward to a new year. Let’s endeavor to walk closer to our savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. Putting Him first in all things. Now this doesn’t mean an outward change, although good, it means an inward change, a change of heart, attitude.
The apostle Paul states it this way, Colossians 4:5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.
Remember “The Time is at Hand”.
Whether the new year brings you face to face with God, via death, or via the blessed Hope, the rapture or next year reviewing the past and looking forward, let’s redeem the time be active in serving God.
Remember “The Time is at Hand”.
The Lord Jesus said, (John 5:28-29) Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
Remember “The Time is at Hand”.
