MAKE THE MOST OF EVERY OPPORTUNITY
“Surprise us with love at daybreak; then we’ll skip and dance all the day long. Make up for the bad times with some good times; we’ve seen enough evil to last a lifetime”
Psalm 90:14-15 (The Message)
God has never designed life to be full of defeats and failures. God has never designed life to be backward. Life is to be lived forward. God never designed your life to be stagnant.
It’s His joy that you advance and increase as you become fruitful by the day.
There is no glory in stagnation. The glory of God is manifested in your progress.
Everything about God and things made by Him are designed to become fruitful, advance lives, and express His glory.
You don’t have to accept stagnation in any way. Don’t ever assume that God makes anyone’s life stagnant for any reason.
Stagnation is not of God. Therefore, don’t live every day waiting or watching on without taking determined steps towards advancement.
Time doesn’t stop or wait. You may think the seconds or hour ahead may not yet come, but suddenly you look back and ask or wonder, “Where did those seconds go?”
As much as you don’t have to live a rushed life or allow delay to create anxiety, you shouldn’t live any day without taking steps towards your progress or advancement.
God has never intended that anyone’s life should be wasted, delayed, stagnant, slow and fruitless.
Though Abraham indeed experienced some delays, and David became relevant as early as 17, why must you not have early success?
God doesn’t endorse delay. Delay and stagnation have their cause. When those factors that cause delays are properly addressed, there can be tangible progress.
God desires that you redeem the times (Ephesians 5:16). To redeem the times is to make the most of every opportunity or to improve every opportunity.
Read it in the Amplified:
“making the very most of your time [on earth, recognizing and taking advantage of each opportunity and using it with wisdom and diligence], because the days are [filled with] evil.”
God wants you to experience restoration from wasted years.
“So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten…” Joel 2:25
God wants you to live your days and years in prosperity and glory. (Job 36:11)
He wants you to have early success and satisfaction.
The Psalmist having this understanding prayed to the Lord saying: “Surprise or satisfy us early with your mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days” (Psalm 90:14).
This means it is possible for one not to be satisfied early in his days. And it is also possible for one not to be glad all his days.
It is not normal to keep having “ups” and “downs”. You can have your whole life flooded with peace and prosperity. You can have a life full of progress and fruitfulness.
What you accept as your revelation becomes the definition of your estate. Refuse stagnation, refuse failure, refuse unfruitfulness.
Make a decision today that you are redeeming the times.
Make the most of every opportunity now, to experience early success.
Shalom!
