Title: You were Made for Greatness - - The Time to Reach Your Potential is Now

Text:

John 9:4 (ESV)
⁴ We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work.

Observation:

The bible says there is a time and season for everything; there are some things that the right time is now time.

Ecclesiastes 3:1 (ESV)
¹ For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:

Now is the time to be all that God purposed you to be; it's now time. The time to trust and obey the Lord is now time. Don't forfeit the precious moments of today; leave your tomorrows in the hands of the Lord.

Find the perfect balance in your life; work while it is day, rest when the night comes. That is the path to peace and happiness, the way to becoming all that God made you to be.

Psalm 31:15 (ESV)
¹⁵ My times are in your hand; rescue me from the hand of my enemies and from my persecutors!

Deuteronomy 33:27 (ESV)
²⁷ The eternal God is your dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms. And he thrust out the enemy before you and said, 'Destroy.'

Prayer:

Our Father in heaven, my dear Father, I praise and thank you for planting the seed in my heart of the need to seize the moment; to work while it is day, and leave the rest to you.

Father, the excess baggage of the trials and troubles of this world are too large for my shoulders to bear; and you never intended for me to carry them.

Father, I welcome the opportunity to exchange my burden which is too heavy for me to bear for your burden which is light.  Father, I pray that many will do it TNT; today, not tomorrow. In Jesus name, Amen.

Matthew 11:28-30 (ESV)
²⁸ Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
²⁹ Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
³⁰ For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

--

Acts 6:4 (KJV)
⁴ But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
