3 Gifts of Kingdom Stewardshipಮಾದರಿ

Time

First, you are to steward your time. Sure, we don’t all have the same amount of time. While everyone has the same twenty-four hours in a day, we don’t all have access to the same number of days. No one knows the length of time God has ordained for them to live.

The truth is that God makes a lot of promises in His Word, but time is not one of them. None of us are even promised tomorrow (James 4:14). That’s why stewarding our time is so critical. We are all living on death row. We do not know when the hour will come when God calls us home. Whether we are young or old by humanity’s standards is irrelevant to God. God is not bound by time. We are. And because we are, it’s important that we learn how to manage our time well. 

Ephesians 5:15-17 puts it this way, “Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil. So then do not be foolish but understand what the will of the Lord is.” In this passage, God tells us plainly to watch out for time. We are to steward our time. We are not to waste it.
